Hi

As we prepare for the return to Train on 26th April. We would like to highlight a couple of areas for action for players/parents and Mentors 

1. Updated COVID Return plans have be issued to teams in advance of the return to train which will broadly be aligned to our processes during previous lockdowns 

2. Membership levels are extremely low across all teams within the club - Membership should be paid prior to return to play to ensure access to player injury fund. Full details of the fund are below; https://odwyersgaa.com/injury-scheme/

3. Memberships can be paid online, we have two groups of membership for 2021 - Previous white membership package has now expired for new members as of 1st of April - Our view is that training & games will be extended right up to December so there will be significant amount of training and game time for all players.

GREEN membership is an annual membership (up front membership) which includes registration and team support membership (team subs) 

NAVY is similar to previous years membership consisting of registration and weekly team support membership (team subs - €5 weekly / €20 monthly)

Each of the membership groups include other membership options i.e., non-playing, supporter/parent membership options similar to our previous options 

New discounted Introduction membership for new players is not available online and only available via Club registrar (i.e. New u8 team & new players to the club)   

4. In order to facilitate payment of membership fees, our club registrar team will be available to take payments on Sat 24th April from 11am to 1pm

We also recognise that it will take a bit of time for memberships to be paid, so we are extending the payment deadline until 21st May upon which time membership must be paid or players will not be allowed to play or train.

IMPORTANT: During the grace period players will not be covered by GAA Player injury fund and if there are injuries during this period then parents/players will be fully liable for the cost.

For more information please have a look at our club website, https://odwyersgaa.com/membership/ or contact your team coach who can advise you of the best option for your team.
