Write a commentLocal GAA club Carrickcruppen have received £485 from Danske Bank which will help support the further development of ladies football within the club.
It's part of the bank's Volunteer Grants programme which provides grants to local organisations with which their employees are involved outside of work. Danske Bank employee Dave Scott, a coach with Carrickcruppen’s girls’ U10s football team, applied for the funding.
Rory Coffey, a Youth Coach at Carrickcruppen, said: “We currently have 53 girls enrolled for our U10 team. Our club offers girls the chance to not only develop their sporting abilities but to meet new friends and improve their social skills.
“This additional funding from Danske Bank means we have been able to invest in extra equipment including; new footballs, manequinns and slalom poles. As a result, we’ll be able to further develop players’ agility and teach more than just basic skills.”
