Leanne Kiernan – Irish Times Sportswoman of the Month for December.
Congratulations to our own Leanne Kieran on receiving the Irish Times, Sportswoman of the Month Award for December. Having had an action packed 2016, this was a fitting end to the year for this up and coming sports star.
The year ahead will be an even busier one for Leanne with Shelbourne beginning the defence of their league title in March, the Women’s National League being played as a summer season for the first time, while there is also a Champions League campaign ahead after their 2016 success.
There’ll be plenty of international duty, too, between the U-19s and seniors. There’s also the small matter of the Leaving Cert which she will do this year, Leanne hoping to do a degree in Agricultural Science. Then there’s all the commuting between Cavan and Dublin for training and matches.
Longer term, Leanne has expressed the wish to play football professionally, following the path of several of her international colleagues playing in Britain and beyond, including Noelle Murray who has just left Shelbourne to sign for Glasgow City FC.
At 17, though, there’s time enough for those opportunities and choices to come along, and if she has another year like 2016, Leanne won’t be short of them.

The Open Door Sessions: A New Monthly Music and Arts Gathering for Bailieborough.
On Friday next, January 20th the second Open Door Sessions will take place in Fox’s pub Bailieborough. Following on from the very successful and entertaining inaugural night, a new round of musicians and arts professionals will play music and display and talk about their visual work.
Jimmy and Paddy will play music from the 70s through to the present day, providing a Hiberno-Americano acoustic experience, with a dash of humour and good fun.
The talented Liam McCabe is well known locally as a musician and has performed around Cavan and Ireland. This multi-instrumentalist and singer also plays in ‘Heroes in Hiding’, who recently appeared on The Late Late Show (and who will play in the Bailie Hotel, Bailieborough on the 21st of January).
Ireland Deserted is a Photographic Artist from Kells, Co Meath. Her work concentrates on abandoned buildings. Her images always seem to carry the essence of those who lived there. For the most part, they are serene, almost comforting, but each with their own unique character.
Robin James Hurt’s considerable talents as a guitarist, composer and singer have brought him on a rich and varied path as a solo act and with other artists, such as the late great Ronnie Drew of the Dubliners, Sinead O’Connor, Finbar Furey and many others.
As a guitarist he has gained international recognition for unique original compositions as well as fresh rearrangements of traditional material, filling them with love, yearning and raw emotion. As well as appearing on many albums by other acts over the years, Robin has an album and three EPs under his own name. His next album “The Magpie’s Nest” is a collaboration with the virtuoso young Dublin concertina player Ailbhe Nolan, to be released worldwide on 27th January 2017.
Admission is free, but donations will be appreciated!
Information about the inaugural night and future Open Door Sessions can be found on our facebook and twitter pages.

East Cavan Gaels GAA Club – Hurling News 9th January 2017
A very Happy New Year to all involved with our club. 2017 promises to be another positive year in the development of local hurling. We have a number of initiatives to roll out over the course of the year and by years end we should hope to see a substantial improvement at all levels within the club.
Just because there is no hurling being played at the moment does not mean there isn’t work going on. A full plan for the season ahead is being finalised and should be ready near the end of the month so to all our players we say enjoy the break as 2017 will be very busy and we hope successful.
Our first groups back hurling will be our U6/8/10 firstly in Kingscourt Community Centre on Thursday January 19th at 6.45 followed by our Bailieborough group on Friday 20th in the Community School Sports Hall from 6.
Registration for the year ahead for all will be in early February.
The older lads will return hurling soon after.
Happy New Year!

We hope to field our first ever adult side in 2017 to finally complete the work started in 2009 with Under 8/10. We look forward to seeing you all in 2017. Thanks to all our volunteers, our coaches and mentors who continue the difficult but enjoyable job of keeping the national game alive here in this part of county Cavan. Thanks also to those who sponsored our various initiatives throughout the year. Below is a selection of our work and players who played for us at all levels in 2016.
