A Chara,
The Gaa was founded in Hayes Hotel in 1884 but hurling existed long before that. Founded in the Fatima area of Dundalk a poc of a ball away from Cu Chulainn's Castle, hurling's first super star, and in the shadow of the Cooley mountains where our club volunteers help ensure the wonderful poc fada takes place each year; the poc fada competition itself having its gensis with members of our club. While Naomh Moninne is undoubtedly the oldest and most successful hurling club in Louth, having no facilities of our own has meant the club leading a nomadic existence for over 60 years. Now in Toberona, beside Fatima, with the support of our field heroes, we are striving to provide the community with what will be county Louth's first pitches dedicated to our ancient game. I invite you to watch this video,

share it with your famiy and friends, and I ask you to help us complete our journey any way you can. Is mise,
Ger Collins,
Cathaoirleach Naomh Moninne.
