Intercounty
There were a number of club players donning the county jersey in both codes over the weekend. On Saturday evening Brian Looby and James Beresford were involved with the Senior Footballers in their narrow loss to Limerick whilst Conor Prunty and Neil Montgomery both performed admirably for the Senior Hurlers in a great victory over Cork in Walsh Park on Sunday afternoon. Both teams are in action again next Sunday against Wicklow and Westmeath respectively, and we wish all involved the best of luck.
Membership
With the playing season commencing very shortly we ask all players to get their membership paid quickly. Also non playing members can pay their membership in the coming weeks. Membership can be paid to Kevin Tobin. Kevin will be in the field on Saturday morning between 11.00 and 12.00.
Jack the Joker
Our ever-popular Jack the Joker fundraiser continues this Sunday night in Minnie’s Bar where the jackpot will be €5200 as on Sunday night Bronagh O Donovan was drawn out of the drum and chose card number 10 which when turned over was not the joker, but he did win €50. Babs Murray and Pat O Brien won €25 each.
The previous week as a mark of respect to the late Jimmy O Leary the draw did not take place until Monday evening when The Walsh Family won €50 after being drawn out and picking card 8. Babs Kiley and James, Jack & Joey both won €25 each.
Club Bingo
Our club bingo continues in the CBS Hall this Sunday night where the jackpot is €1050.
