Munich Colmcilles GAA

25 years. One club. Countless memories💙🤍

What a way to celebrate 25 incredible years of Munich Colmcilles!

We had a fantastic morning filled with code games, fun races, and our legends playing our next generation taking centre stage. We topped off the day with an evening of celebration and plenty of dancing with friends old and new. It was a day we’ll never forget.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, whether you pulled on the boots, cheered from the sidelines, bought a raffle ticket, shared a story, or simply came along to celebrate what this club means to so many 💙

A special thank you to Dublin legend Michael Darragh McAuley and Sarah McCaffrey for spending the day with us. From joining in the games to inspiring our youngest members and sharing stories during the evening interview with Niall, your time and generosity made the occasion even more special.

Here’s to the players, coaches, volunteers, supporters, families, and friends who have shaped Munich Colmcilles over the past 25 years and to the next 25 still to come 💪

Thank you for making our anniversary celebration one to remember💙

A big shoutout to our sponsors, we are so grateful for your generosity and support that allows us to run such a successful club. It means the world to our community

Thanks a lot to and who joined forces with 3 of our players, you all played fantastic and were just unlucky at the end to miss out on the Shield in a close final.

💙🤍 Munich Colmcilles 💙🤍

The whole Munich Colmcilles community are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Pat Stakelum.

Our club could not have asked for a more dedicated or genuine member than Pat. He was always there to lend a helping hand, and no task was ever too big or too small. Pat played a huge role in building the club into what it is today, working tirelessly in the background and never seeking recognition for his efforts.

Pat was a kind, selfless, witty, and gentle soul, immensely proud of his family both in Munich and in Thurles. A great storyteller, he brought warmth and laughter wherever he went, and we will cherish the many wonderful memories we shared in his company.

He supported the Munich Colmcilles in every way possible and was a truly loyal and valued member - the kind every club hopes for.

Pat will always be remembered within Munich Colmcilles and will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

We wish to express our heartfelt condolences to Christopher, Daniela, Frank, Robert, Noel, Conor and all of the extended Stakelum family.
