28/01/2012    Ballykelly Underage Committee
The club sent out a request to all its members to see if there would be people interested in forming an underage committee. The club has grown a huge amount in the last couple of years and it was becoming difficult for the main committee to keep track of all the goings on in the club so we felt that an underage committee would be of huge benefit to all the younger members. The first meeting was held during the week and the officers elected were
Chairman: Tommy Curran
Vice Chairman: Eoghan O Neill
Secretary: Karrie Grant
PRO: Dermot Lawler

Committee:
Jason Coughlan
Tom Ryan
Evelyn Conlon
Ernie Colton
Brendan Lacey
Noel Kehoe
Tony Kerins
Darran Fogarty
Patrick Whyte
Ann Sealey
Chris Supple
David Coady
