About Govan
This event is an All-Ireland initiative which started in 2016 in memory of one of our outstanding young players who died in a tragic accident when on a working holiday in Africa in the summer of 2015.
When his family moved from Africa, Govan joined up with the Naomh Mearnog U14 football squad and quickly established himself as an outstanding team player. He went on to represent our club at every level, including being part of the U21 Championship winning team in 2014.
Govan had an infectious personality and was a great friend to everyone he met. We strive to ensure that this event does justice to the memory of an outstanding young man and a committed member of our club and community.
