We want to extend our deepest gratitude to Declan Mc Donnell of ERM Financial Services for his unwavering support of our club. Over the years, Declan has been more than just a contributor - he has been the heart and soul of our community. From mentoring teams to serving as club treasurer, volunteering at events, and continuously funding key initiatives, his dedication knows no bounds.
This year, Declan’s generosity shone once again as he funded a new set of jerseys for our minor girls' team. To ensure these young athletes could continue playing at the U18 level, we merged with local rivals @fingal_ravens_gfc - making neutral jerseys essential for matches. Without hesitation, Declan stepped up, ensuring our girls were equipped and ready to take the field.
But his impact goes beyond jerseys. Declan has consistently championed girls’ participation in football, recognising the immense value of keeping young female athletes engaged in the sport. From sponsoring these same players when they competed at U15 level to sponsoring pitch signs that help fund the club, his contributions have shaped opportunities for the next generation of players.
Thanks to Declan and ERM Financial Services these young women have the support they need to stay in the game - building confidence, friendships, and a lifelong passion for football. His commitment to fostering equal opportunities in sport is truly inspiring, and we cannot thank him enough for ensuring our girls continue to thrive on and off the pitch.
