Katonah Gaelic Football Club Kicks-Off Spring Season
Program open to girls and boys ages 5 to 14
Dear Setanta:
Today was a great day for Setanta. The U8’s performed incredibly today, winning Setanta’s very first championship at the Rockland County Denis McHugh Tournament. In sweltering heat the U8’s had to win an incredible five games in order to
claim first place. They accomplished this feat with relentless offense and an impenetrable defense. Setanta dominated each
game played from start to finish. Congratulations to all. It was an incredible sight to see.
Not to be outdone by their younger teammates the U10’s took the field in the afternoon to play the Rockland U10’s, the same team that narrowly defeated us in our last game of the season. This time, however, the result was different. Our determined team
went all out from start to finish, dominating the first half with incredible offensive play. Rockland came back strong in the
second half however Setanta’s defense was able to hold them off. In the end, it was Setanta by a goal. Setanta’s play
was described as outstanding - - by the Rockland coach! Congratulations.

your child is interested in playing, please let me know this week via email as we need to start the registration process. If you have
