Glynn Barntown had 3 winners plus an email contributors draw winner in the first Model County draw last night. Thanks to everyone for their support and thanks to Noel and co for their hard work. 

The first of three CLG Loch Garman 2018 Club & County Draws Took place tonight, with a big increase in sales check out all the winners here

The purpose of the Special General Meeting is to discuss and vote on the way club property is held into the future. The GAA are introducing a Corporate Trustee model with the intention to make transactions simpler and quicker and reduce personal exposure to trustees.

There are 3 options available

Option 1. Do noting and to continue to hold club property through personal trustees

Option 2. Introduce a partial change, in that case property is held by a combination of personal trustees and the corporate trustee

Option 3. Elect to have property held only through the corporate trustee.

The Executive Committee of the club favour option 3 as

– individuals are no longer trustees and therefore are not exposed should the club/unit be sued

–   currently, when individual trustees resign or die there can be delay and cost associated with transfer of responsibility

–  If a personal trustee was to get into financial difficulty, resulting in a judgement being obtained and registered on club property, theis can cause delays and complications in dealing with the property

– any dealings with club property should be streamlined without the need for multiple copies of documents and multiple signatures

and will move a motion at the meeting to adopt it.

Positive sidelines is an initiative from Wexford County Coiste na nÓg. Glynn Barntown GAA Club fully supports this initiative and we ask that all mentors, parents and indeed supporters buy into the ethos of the project to make the playing experience for our children as positive and enjoyable as possible.
