Gortletteragh club notes
January 27, 2021Club Notes 24th January 2021.
Sympathy:
We extend our deepest sympathy to the Sorohan family Gubadorish on the death of their uncle, Michael Francis Bohan last weekend. Ar dheis De go raibh a anam dhilis.
Sympathy:
We were sadden last weekend to hear Hugh Colreavy, Mohill and formerly Annaghoney, had passed to his eternal reward. Hugh along with his brothers, Fr Tom (RIP), Mick, Seamus and Jack played with Gortlertteragh in the 1960’s-1980’s. Hugh had the honour of getting the first score for the club on their return to senior ranks in 1965. A gentleman beyond compare Hugh will be missed by all who knew him. We extend our deepest sympathy to his devoted wife Jacinta and to all the Colreavy and McGowan families.
With current covid restrictions we were unable to convey our support personally, we assure you all of our prayers at this time. Ar dheis De go raibh a anam dhilis.

Leaving Cert 2021 Students – message from NUIG:
NUIGalway GAA would like to welcome the potential students of 2021 onwards to College who will be interested in participating in GAA activities. It is difficult for all of us to discuss the future and offer an opportunity to visit college grounds so we decided to visit the school and student instead. There is a wonderful connection between NUIGalway and schools of Connacht and we can build on this in the future. Many thanks to the staff in Connacht GAA for their assistance.
