Munich Ladies to face a London GAA team

October 12th, 2009 by todd

Coming Saturday, October 17th,  will see the London Clonbony Ladies GAA team visiting Munich and playing a few friendly games against our own Munich Ladies. Travelling with a full squad of 24 players, the London team seems more than eager to play as it is still quite a newly founded club, so competitiveness on the pitch is guaranteed. Playing grounds at SV Gartenstadt have been already booked for 15:00 on Saturday, October 17th, but the official draw and schedule for the day is still to be announced.

London GAA ladies team

You can meet the Clonbony Ladies on Facebook here or visit their short profile over here.

The game aftermath has been planned as a social event of getting together and having fun, so everybody is more than welcome to join the ladies not only as spectators during the day, but for the post-match entertainment as well. We would like to wish our ladies good luck for the games and hope for good weather conditions so that more fans and supporters can join in on the day at Gartenstadt.

The evening also offers the opportunity of attending the WildeNight Out 2009 – a charity fundraiser event organised by DIF-Bayern and kindly sponsored by the Embassy of Ireland, Berlin, and the Munich-based company Riverland Solutions GmbH. The event shall take place at the Schlachthof, Zenettistr. 9, in Munich and would offer its audience the theatrical one-man-show “In the Company of Oscar Wilde” performed by Alan Stanford, followed by live Irish music.

The Munich Colmcilles are one of the charity beneficiaries alongside with the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Ireland, so we encourage everybody to join in. You can find out more about the event and purchase tickets here.

Tournament Draw 2009

July 23rd, 2009 by paul savage

Fresh off the presses is the draw for the games on Saturday :Munich 2009 Draw. Throw in for the first games is an early 9am so please factor in enough time to be at the grounds on time. This is a German 9am not an irish one ;-) !

The weather is supposed to be kinder to us this year but don’t forget the sun screen in case. You should all have the directions from the previous mail and the underground stop Quiddestrasse is less than 10 minutes away from the grounds. You should all turn left when leaving the train and up the stairs. This will all be signed from here on to help you get to the grounds.
