Monumental day for Clonee United

Posted on: September 18th, 2021 by clonadmin
Today was a monumental day for Clonee United as all the photos and videos will show. After near 20 years of football and 10 years of girls football in the area we finally hit the jackpot and got a visit from ROI manager Vera Pauw along with full senior squad, Vera and the squad wasted no time and immediately set out the pitches to exacting standard and began to coach all our girls. A game between a selection of our top U14prem girls v our top U13s boys was watched closely by FAI high performance director Rudd Dokter. There is absolutely no doubt that amount the 9 to 19 year old girls present that we will have girls wearing the green international Jersey in the future which is testament to the high standards to which the girls are trained.
We started 10 years ago with 8 girls and thanks to the continuing relentless efforts of John Bassi and John Paul Hendrick this has grown to over 150 with the help of all our committee and coaches who strive for excellence.
On a personal note I have attended many cup finals and league Cup presentations over my 19 years with the club but today was my proudest moment to see such awe and joy in all the players to meet their idol’s and share the same pitch as them, today makes it all worthwhile as at the end of the day it’s the kids on the pitch what counts.
With the help of FAI Development Officer Sean Moore and Fingal Co council we hope to build Clonee United into a super club within the Dublin 15 area

Clonee Mini Leagues 2021

Posted on: July 10th, 2021 by clonadmin
Today we wrapped up the mini leagues with all our teams playing their finals. The weather started out a little wet but it didn’t stop the players producing the highest standard of football.
A couple of thank yous from the committee. To all the under 18′ boys who came down and helped coach teams, referee games and help put goals up and down.
To the under 19 girls who help coach, referee game. Thanks to Kiera and Lucy who ran the hotdog stand all week.
To Tina and all the ladies who looked after the sideline cafe, thanks your help was invaluable. We always need help in the cafe so if you can help out any weekend please let us know.
To the committee, this week doesn’t just happen, it requires many hands and minds to happen. I think we can all agree that from the quality of pitches to the marking on the pitches, Damastown looked fantastic. The club urgently needs new committee members so if you would like to join a fantastic team please drop us a line.
Finally to the reason we arranged the mini leagues, due to all the registrations received and some donations from people over the week, we managed to collect €3,500 for Sienna’s Steps. As a club and community I think we can all be proud of the efforts put in this week.
Thank you and hopefully we see you all on the sidelines in the new season.

Shamrock Rovers Affiliation

Posted on: March 4th, 2021 by clonadmin
On behalf of the committee I would like to update you all on the happenings within the club. Firstly it will be April at the earliest when the next announcements regarding lock-down are advised but the club have been busy regardless. Over the last couple of weeks we have been working very hard on formalizing a coaching ethos within the club and it is with great pleasure that I can announce the following. Along with securing a continued partnership with Coerver coaching we have now become an affiliate club with league of Ireland champions Shamrock Rovers ☘ this will offer potential player’s a pathway on to league of Ireland football our coaches have already had online tutorials with their coaching staff and we look forward to getting out on the pitch for full on sessions. We are also delighted to announce (subject to restrictions) that our annual Clonee United mini leagues are scheduled for late June and will be free to enter for all current members. Shamrock Rovers will also be hosting a summer camp in July exclusive to Clonee United players.
Although we are locked down as regards sport the club is still functioning full and our pitches and facilities are still being maintained fully and are ready for use the second we get the nod. We look forward to seeing you all again in Damastown very soon. Keep safe
Yours in sport
