The Club held its Annual General
Meeting on Sunday 7th November 2010 to reflect on the year past and set the
agenda out for the coming season. Everyone agreed that we had a successful year
on and off the playing fields, our Senior Footballers landing the double
Division two League and Intermediate Championship and now competing at Ulster
level is a great achievement. Our underage hurling structures got a lot of
praise with Minors winning all before them and U16 teams virtually unbeaten all
season, both sides collecting numerous All County, South West and North Antrim
titles.
Activities off the field were also complemented, the success of
the events that have been organised by the club such as Reeling Round Rasharkin,
Mixed Fortunes, Juvenile Presentation night, Night at the races, GAA Quiz and La
Na Chlub Day to name a few and of course we are all waiting in anticipation for
the up and coming event, Rasharkin's version of Stars in their Eyes.
The
cultural side of the club is gaining a lot of momentum with the introduction of
Irish Dancing, Ceili Dancing and Irish language classes. These initiatives are
bearing fruit, and will be demonstrated this weekend in Dunloy at the County
Scor na nOg. The club has entered three categories, instrumental music, novelty
act and question time, we wish all our competitors Good Luck.
