Sunday night Mikey Tutty was drawn out of the drum and picked card 49 but did
not find the Joker, yet he did win €50. Mike Kiely and Sarah Power won €25 each.
Mary and Mollie
Tournament
To describe the inaugural Mary and Mollie tournament,
which took place on Saturday last, as a success would truly be an
understatement. Huge crowds showed their support not alone for the tournament
but for the Walsh and Enright families by turning up on the day to enjoy the
games. After some great games of football, which is a tribute to the girls
involved such was the heat on the day, Abbeyside and Dungarvan competed for the
Mary and Mollie Cup with Dungarvan emerging victorious whilst Inch and Moyle
Rovers contested the Shield Final with claiming the Shield after a thrilling
sudden death points competition. In his speech before presenting the trophies
Pa Enright said that all the girls who participated on the day were winners and
all of them were presented with a medal. As well as being a great day it was
also a fantastic fundraiser for the Temple Street Children’s Hospital and we
thank all those who supported this worthy cause on the day, by purchasing the t
shirts. As I said already it was a fantastic day, and a fitting tribute to Mary
and Mollie Enright and no doubt next year’s event will be anticipated by all
those present on the day. Photos of the event can be seen by clicking here.
Senior Football
We played The Nire on Saturday evening last in Fraher

Intermediate Football
On Sunday last we recorded a very good win over
Dungarvan in the Western Championship to leave us on two wins in this
Championship. This Friday night we play The Geraldines where a win could see us
qualify for the knock out stages.
Minor Hurling
We play Roanmore this Wednesday night in the County
Championship in Abbeyside at 7:30pm and this game is being played for the
Kieran Lennon Cup which was presented to the club by the Lennon family in
memory of the late Kieran Lennon who was involved in training many underage
teams in the club through the years. We ask as many club members as possible to
come along and show their support on the night.
Field Development
As any visitor to our club grounds lately can see work
is progressing on our Ball Wall and it should be completed in the next few
weeks whilst the pathway to our new grounds has also been laid.

Sympathy
On behalf of all in the Club we would like to send our
sympathies to the Sweeney family, Kildorerry, Co.Cork on the death of Maurice
Sweeney. Maurice was a brother of our club Chairman, Frank Sweeney and had a
great interest in GAA. Once again we extend our sympathies to Frank and all his
family on their loss.
