Joker Fundraiser
Our popular Jack the Joker Fundraiser will continue
this Sunday night in The Stables Bar where the Jackpot will be €4,910. This
week Kathleen Shields was drawn out of the drum but did not find the joker but
did win €50 while Joe Mulcahy and Maurice O’Donnell won €25. We appeal to all
our supporters to continue purchasing the tickets as the funds raised will go
towards our ongoing development works at the club grounds.
Monster Club Bingo
Our club bingo will move to The Park Hotel this Sunday
at 3 pm where will stage a Monster Bingo with €3,000 prize fund.
Under 21 Football
On Friday night last we took on The Nire in the
Western Semi Final and after a slow first half performance we ran out
comfortable winners in the second half to qualify for the final which took
place on Monday against Dungarvan in Fraher Field. The game was extremely
competitive and the teams were deadlocked at the end of normal time. The
players displayed great courage to win the game in extra time and win our first
title since 2007 at this grade.

Déise Development Draw
It is that time of year again when our promoters are
out on the doorsteps of the parish promoting the 2012 Déise Development Draw.
The format is similar to previous years with a nine month draw coting ten euro
a month to join. Whilst the board retains some of the money to cover prizes etc
the draw is crucial to helping us meet the costs involved in running our club
in these difficult times. We would ask all our loyal supporters to please
continue to support the draw as best they can, and if you have not been
approached to join the draw but wish to do so then please don’t hesitate to
approach any club committee member.
Club Website
Our club website has undergone a major renovation
recently and is well worth a visit to catch up on all the upcoming fixtures and
recent results as well as containing some photos from previous years. Log onto www.abbeycourtygaa.com to see for yourself.
