Boyle Celtic AGM

The Boyle Celtic AGM was held on Friday 1st July in the Clubhouse with a good attendance, in particular it was heartening to see some of the first team squad in attendance.

Kieran Spellman stepped down as Chairman after 10 years in the role for a very well-deserved break. We can never thank Kieran enough for the time and effort he put into Boyle Celtic during his tenure as Chairman and his years on the committe before that. As the new Chairman, Paddy McLoughlin, said in his acceptance speech, if he can achieve half as much for Boyle Celtic as Kieran did, he will be more than satisfied.

The Secretary's and Treasurer's reports were read out by Richard Kennedy and Eddie Conroy respectively. Motions to elect Paddy McLoughlin as Chairman and re-elect the Secretary, Treasurer and PRO were also passed unopposed.

Two items arising out of the AGM are:-
The need to have a representative from each squad, not necessarily the same one all the time, attend future committee meetings to spread the word of what is happening in the Club
To appoint a Youth Development Officer to ensure our U16 / U18 players can progress as seamlessly as possible into the Senior ranks, be it through the Reserves or Senior teams.
