General Election 2024

Hi everyone,

It’s election season and candidates will be calling!

We would appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to read this and lobby on our behalf should you engage a candidate on the doorstep.

In summary we have the following 3 requirements for our over 70 Teams and nearly 2000 players:

1. Floodlit training/playing surfaces are badly needed - We suggest flood lighting the GAA Pitch in ETB/VEC Terenure and opening it up for night time usage. We have been pursuing this for some time to no avail. We intend to keep trying.

2. Clubhouse / multi function room facilities needed - We suggest that this could be provided in ETB/VEC Terenure perhaps.

3. Floodlit All weather training/playing surfaces - We suggest Pitch 3 in Bushy be floodlit (the pitch beside the floodlit all weather tennis , paddle and basketball courts ). If courts can be lit, why not a pitch.

With weather as it is evolving and the resultant impact on grass surfaces together with our need to provide ever more pitches to cater for the explosion in our membership and in particular girls Gaelic Football in our area we feel strongly that the Government needs to step in and be supporting us more than they are.

We ask you to raise these 3 matters with your callers and demand better for your community, your children and our youth and young adults.

Thank you for your support .
