Jack The Joker
 |
| No. Drawn - 4 |
Our popular Jack the Joker Fundraiser will continue
this Sunday night in The Parish Office where the Jackpot will be €2,978 as on
Sunday night Liam Briggs was drawn out of the drum but did not find the Joker,
however he does win €50 euro while Mary O’Halloran and Niamh McGrath won €25.
Ticket sellers can hand their tickets into the Parish Office from 7:30 pm to 8
pm. 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.
Intermediate Football
This Saturday we play Ballinameela in the Western
Final in Fraher Field at 5pm. We ask all our supporters
to get along to the game and cheer on the team.
Under 21 Hurling
On Saturday afternoon last we took on St. Carthage’s
in the Western Final in Cappoquin. We got off to the worst possible start to
the game as our opponents struck for two early goals but to our lads’ great
credit they didn’t panic and battled back into the game and were arguably the
better team for the last 40 minutes but we couldn’t get through for the goal
that could have led to victory. We congratulate St. Carthage’s on their victory
and wish them well in the County Final. All in the club would like to thank the
players and management team for the commitment they have given during the year
which saw them claim the County Football Championship and reach the Western
Hurling Final. One final thing to consider when mentioning this team is that throughout
the hurling campaign our centre back Maurice Power has given fantastic
performances and indeed on Saturday he maintained these excellent standards,
which makes the decision not to include him on the County Under 21 hurling
panel this year all the more extraordinary. If there are 26 or 27 better under
21 hurlers than him in the County then the future of Waterford hurling is very
bright indeed.
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. 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 €1,600. We would ask all members to check the
rota to see what nights they are due to help with clearing the hall after the
bingo.
Club Committee Meeting
The next meeting of the Club Committee will take place
on Wednesday October 10th at 8pm.
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.
