Welcome to Simonstown Gaels GFC
Founded 1965
About Simonstown Gaels GFC
In 1965 Muhammad Ali was Heavyweight Champion of the World, Lyndon Johnson was in the White House, Sean Lemass was Taoiseach, Martin Quinn was Meath’s full-back, Mick O’Connell was the star man for Kerry, Colm O’Rourke was in high infants over in Leitrim, and Arkle won his second Gold Cup.
Just outside of Navan, meanwhile, a group of lads, led by Joe Clarke of Simonstown and Jimmy Lane of St. Mary’s Park, were making a big decision to start a new football club. They had to get a few locals back from Kilberry and Gibbstown, there were a few ex-O’Mahony’s available, and there were a few other young lads unattached and ‘mad’ for action.

U15 Mini Feile
On St Patricks Day the U15’s competed in La Feile Padraig in Dundalk IT. This was a mini Feile organised by Glyde Rangers from Louth. Teams competing were Gylde Rangers (Louth), St Sylvesters (Dublin) and Donaghmoyne (Monaghan). Hard fought competition with some great football on display. In the end Simonstown came out on top. Pictures show U15 captain Max Condon receiving the cup from Mick Lundon (Glyde Rangers). Well done lads!
Statistician Needed
Our Simonstown Senior men are looking for additional support with a statistician to collect performance analysis for their League and Championship games. This would involve rewatching recorded games and collecting data on the players performances during the match and presenting the findings to the management team. This could be of interest to college students studying in this field or anyone particularly interested in this area of the GAA. Please get in contact with us if you would like to get involved or have a discussion regarding the above.
Introduction to Coaching Gaelic Games

The course is aimed at beginner coaches and will enable participants to teach the basic skills of the game through fun activities. In order to coach, it is mandatory to have completed this course. The course is also open to coaches who have already completed the old Foundation Course but want to upskill. The course will run over 3 Thursday evenings in late April/early May. The dates are: Thurs April 20th (7-9.30pm) Thurs May 4th (7-9.30pm) Thurs May 11th (7-9.30pm). The venue is the hall in St Oliver Plunkett NS. There is no fee for the course. If you would like to book your place, please send your name and email address to garethburns9@yahoo.ie The course will be good fun and a great way to meet coaches new to the club.
