Sympathy
Joker Fundraiser
On behalf of all in the club we would like to express our sincere sympathies to Patrick Enright, the Walsh and Enright families on the tragic deaths of Mary Enright (nee Walsh) and baby Mollie on Monday last. We also wish Jack Leacy well in his recovery from injury. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone at this most difficult time.
Our popular Jack the Joker Fundraiser will
continue this Sunday night in The Stables Bar where the Jackpot will be €5,234. This week Sheila Riordan was drawn out of the drum but did not
find the joker but did win €50 while Gikey
Ferncombe
and Sarah Clancy 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.
Club Bingo
Our club bingo will return to the CBS Hall
this Sunday night after a very successful Monster Bingo in The Park Hotel last
Sunday evening. We would like to thank
all those who supported the Monster Bingo and all the staff of the Park Hotel
for their help on the day.
Under 21 Football
The County Final of the Under 21 Football
Championship has been fixed for Easter Sunday in Walsh Park.
Booking of Pitches
We would like to ask all team managers to
please ensure that they have booked the pitch with Bernard Shields before they
arrange training sessions.
Membership
Please note that membership can now be
paid to Jonathan O’Donovan
or any member of the committee.
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 costing 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.
Club Committee Meeting
The next meeting of the club committee will
take place in The Parish Office on Thursday night March 29th at 8 pm.
