No. Drawn - 19
Joker Jackpot Continues to Rise
Our popular Jack the Joker Fundraiser will continue this Sunday night in The Stables Bar where the Jackpot will be €12,666. This week Fred and Ann Forsey were drawn out of the drum but did not find the joker but did win €50 while Caoimhe McCarthy and Alfie Egan 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.


Senior Hurling
On Saturday evening last we took on Ballyduff Upper in Cappoquin in our last game of the group stage of the County Championship and at the end of an absorbing encounter the teams were level on a score of 2:19 to 4:13. This result means that we have qualified for the quarter finals where our opponents are Fourmilewater. This game takes place this Saturday evening in Fraher Field.

The Brawl in the Hall
Our club has teamed up with Brickey Rangers in a novel fundraising event called “The Brawl in the Hall” organised by White Collar Boxing.  Twelve boxers from each club will square up to one another in three 1½ minute rounds of action.  The official launch took place on Saturday last at Bushy Park with a weigh-in and opponents coming face to face for the first time.  Training will commence in the near future so all boxers will be in prime condition in time for the big night.  The event takes place on Saturday, 15th December at Dungarvan Sports Centre with tickets priced at €10.  These will be available shortly.  More details to follow in the coming weeks.

Club Bingo
Our club bingo will continue in the CBS Hall this Sunday night where the Jackpot is €1,400.

The next meeting of the club committee will take place tonight, Wednesday September 5th, at 8 pm in The Club Grounds.
