All members of the Committee note that a meeting has been aranged for 8pm on Wednesday of this week in the Emmet Tavern.

In the absence of Manager Nick Nally who was abroad on holiday, Mark Scanlon and Des Fitzgerald took the Club’s U11 Squad to Dublin this afternoon in search of the National title and with it the right to represent Ireland in the Danone Nations Cup in France in September.

Alas they came home disappointed after a gallant but unsuccessful effort after losing out to the eventual winners Clonmel Town by the narowest of margins -in a penalty shoot out after a scoreless draw. Everyone in Trim Celtic congratulates the boys and their management team on their magnificent achievement in getting to the deciders today. They were the only team to hold Clonmel Town scoreless and on the balance of play they deserved to win the game against the defensive victors.

The Committee sends its best wishes to the boys from Clonmel as they now prepare to take on the rest of Europe.

This coming Saturday 25th June 2005 Trim Celtic is pleased to stage its annual Schoolboy Presentation Function in the Church of Ireland Diocesan Hall on Loman Street starting at 6pm, concluding at 8pm at the latest.

This is a big occasion on the Club calendar when it pays tribute to the many young members who distinguished themselves on and off the field of play in the season gone by. Players of the Year at every age level will receive a handsome trophy and the overall Player of the Year will receive the Noel Dempsey Perpetual Cup for the coming year suitably engraved. The Club is grateful to Noel for his continued support. The announcement of the identity of the recipient is always keenly anticipated.

Players on the Club teams that achieved honours in local competition will also receive their rewards for the efforts.

Light refreshments will be served to all schoolboy members in attendance. Please come along early, as proceedings will start sharply at 6pm.

Note: We kindly ask all parents to ensure that players from the age of 12 years down are accompanied by an adult. Thank you for your support.
