No Funding – The Mohill Club cater for 14 teams and on a Saturday morning you can see up to 150 children Under 10 being coached. This is all played out in ancient and embarrassing facilities. A newly formed Community group applied for funding to improve the buildings. They left no stone unturned and indeed the whole application proved very expensive when the engineers, planners and legal costs were paid, but for some reason, the application was turned down. Needless to say, everyone is disappointed as is Sineád Guckian CC who did all in her power to help out.
