Coerver Coach Education Clinic

We’d like to extend a huge thank you to all the coaches who attended the Coerver Coaching Education Clinic at Templeogue United. It was a fantastic day, featuring an in-house session on the Coerver approach to individual player development, followed by a practical on-pitch session that brought the methodology to life. We’re delighted to see the Coerver approach already being adopted within training and look forward to the positive impact it will continue to have across the club.

LFA Selection vs LSL Selection

Templeogue United was delighted to host a very special match on the recent Bank Holiday Monday, as a Leinster Senior League selection took on a Leinster Football Association selection. Managed by Andy McNulty and coached by Robbie Collins, the LFA side faced a Leinster Senior League team managed by Marc Kenny and coached by David Mooney, in a fantastic showcase of the 30 best players in Dublin. It was a superb game and one we’re extremely proud to have hosted — be sure to check out the brilliant photographs captured by Una Murray AKA Fast Twitch Photos.

We’d like to shine a quick light on Templeogue United’s growing success on social media. In January alone, our content recorded over 401,000 views, with staggering growth achieved over the past nine months — a testament to the brilliant engagement from our community. We’re also delighted to announce that Barry McCarthy has taken up the role of Head of Communications - joining The FDC, helping to further strengthen how we share news and stories across every aspect of the club; thank you for liking and subscribing, and if there’s ever something you’d like covered, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Barry or any member of the club team.


TUFC AWAY - 12.3s to West Brom

Our Under-12.3 Boys enjoyed an unforgettable trip to West Bromwich Albion, training at the West Bromwich Albion Academy and proudly serving as flag bearers at The Hawthorns for the top-of-the-table clash against Middlesbrough. The trip also included a friendly match against Enville Athletic, adding valuable game experience to an already incredible visit. It was a fantastic opportunity and a truly memorable experience for the boys.



RIP Eamonn Murray

We end this edition with the sad news of the passing of Templeogue United club legend Eamon Murray. Eamon served the club with distinction as both Club Manager and Honorary Club Secretary for 12 years, and without his dedication and tireless commitment, the club would not be where it is today. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time — may he rest in peace.



To conclude, thank you to everyone who continues to support Templeogue United — our players, coaches, volunteers, parents and sponsors. Your commitment is what keeps the club thriving.


We look forward to another great year ahead and hope to see you down at the club in the weeks to come.


Gavin Jones,

Chairman
