We wish to share a bit of exciting news. Our club coach JP Byrne will be joining the coaching ranks with Waterford FC underage girls teams and all in Mooncoin Celtic wish this wonderful character the very best of luck in his new role. He has played a pivotal role in recent years with our girls teams and also with our current u15 boys team. His recruitment for his new role is well deserved as he has shown in all his roles with club and the Waterford u13 Girls Development squad that he has all the attributes to succeed at a higher level. As a club we are sad to lose a big personality , who was always willing to lend a hand with everything and anything over the years but as a club we are also mighty proud.
We’ll start with our academy, which is kindly Sponsored by Eastgate Engineering, which thankfully was held in perfect sunny conditions on Saturday morning. Our Eastgate Engineering players of the week from last week were Billy,Jamie, Tommy and Kate while this week we had winners in James,Finn,Casey and Darragh. Big thank you as always to Celina and her team of coaches who help run our ever growing Academy.
