Road Safety Information Evening
Roscommon GAA in conjunction with Roscommon County Council and the Road Safety Authority (RSA) have organised an "Information Evening" for Club Officers to be held in Hannon's Hotel Roscommon on Monday evening next January 8th at 8pm. Catherine Flaherty from the RSA will be in attendance and will outline what services are available to Clubs through their various programmes including "Play it Safe". 

‘Play it Safe’ was developed by the RSA in association with the GAA, FAI, IRFU, and Cycling Ireland. It presents information on organising sporting events with road safety in mind by encouraging the use of high visibility clothing, safe driving practices etc. 

Through the provision of these guidelines, the RSA will assist all relevant personnel in sporting organisations with information on how to be road safety aware when organising sporting activities or travelling to and from sporting events.

All interested club officers are asked to attend. 

Scór na nÓg Stars Shone in Elphin
All our young stars travelled to Elphin on Friday night to compete in the Scór na nÓg finals. The finals had to be rescheduled due to inclement weather. There was such a high standard in each of the seven disciplines and it was a difficult job for the adjudicators to decide the winners. 
Tensions were high among the competitors, as everyone wants to be crowned County Champion. Some have numerous county titles won already and yet there is a strong desire to add more titles to their C.V’s. Some of them have won All-Ireland titles and like any G.A.A person, lifting an All-Ireland trophy for your club and County is the biggest dream.  But it is not easy to win these titles. 
Hours have been spent training in preparation for these finals. It is a great opportunity to showcase their talents. School friends, cousins & county teammates will compete against each other. It is very social but do not underestimate what these County titles mean to these performers. Many of them are accomplished sportspeople within their own clubs and many have worn their county jersey this summer. They are fierce competitors who have a desire to do their club proud. This involvement in Scór is addictive. Many of the mentors are former participants. 
Our Bean an Tí was Kilbride native Aoife McLoughlin. Aoife has represented Roscommon in two All-Irelands in Solo singing. She is now overage but she is still eager to be involved in Scór. She did a great job on the night. For many of the winners, they were delighted to be presented with their trophy by Roscommon’s Connacht Senior Football Championship winning Captain Ciaran Murtagh. County Board Secretary Brian Carroll was also there on the night to cheer on the young people of Roscommon. 
Well done to all the clubs who had participants in the finals. They were a credit to their families and communities. Please come along to the Connacht Finals in Claremorris Town Hall on Sunday 14th January at 2.30pm to support Roscommon. They would be delighted with your support.

CIAN CONNOLLY
Congratulations and well done to our very own Cian Connolly who won the TG4 Cúil na Bliana goal of the year award 2017. Cian secured the football award for his goal in Roscommon’s Connacht final victory over Galway last July in Pearse Stadium.  Cian’s goal was described as a peach by TV sports Pundit and Sunday World Columnist Pat Spillane.  Cian’s goal between finish and pass was a work of art.  Three of the top four were Rossie goals.
