Tournaments
July 31st - August 7th 2010 Gay Games VIII Cologne
The club travelled to the Gay Games in Cologne this year, the games are held every four years and bring together athletes from a wide range of sports and countries. We teamed up with the New York Ramblers for this event forming "The Shamblers" for the week long event, this proved to be an effective partnership and we managed an impressive record of 4 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat. The club would like to express its thanks to the New York Ramblers team for a very enjoyable and successful week both on and off the pitch. Go Shamblers !!!
Note: For the record Ray was our top scorer with 7 goals (and was also the youngest competitor ever to compete in the Gay Games).
June 11th - 13th 2010 GFSN Get-Together - Blackpool
The Irish Shamrocks travelled to Blackpool to compete in the GFSN Cup, both teams got knocked out in the quarter finals on penalties after putting in some great performances on a fantastic sunny day. Congratulations to Ray aka "Razor" on being awarded player of the tournament and to all the squad for contributing to a brilliant weekend.
Thanks to Ali and the GFSN Team for a great event and to Simon and Gary for helping out on the pitch and becoming honorary shamrocks :-)
