County Awards Night
On behalf of all in the club we would like to congratulate Gray Hurney on being named as County Footballer of the year on Saturday night last. This is a great honour for Gary, his family and indeed all in our club. Also on the night the families of the late Tony Mansfield and Seamus O’Brien were presented with awards in recognition for all the work both men did in promoting the GAA through their weekly columns in the local papers. This was a very fitting tribute to the many decades of tireless work both men gave to the GAA here in Waterford.

Congratulations
We would like to congratulate Stephen O’Connor and Brian Looby on winning All Ireland Freshers Hurling League medals with UCC last week. It is great to see both lads continuing to play hurling in university whilst Brian is also the only non Cork or Kerry player currently on the UCC Freshers Football team, something that he should be equally proud of.

Club Bingo
This Sunday our Club Bingo continues in the CBS Hall where the jackpot is €600.

AGM
The club's AGM will take place on Friday, 6th December at 8:00pm in Ballinroad Hall.

Best Wishes
On behalf of all in the club we would like to wish Ballysaggart the very best of luck ahead of their Munster Club Hurling Final this Sunday in Mallow.

Hurling Wall
This Sunday at 1:30 pm Paudie Butler will hold a hurling wall coaching session in the club and all are welcome to come along and view what should be an excellent coaching session by one of the best hurling coaches in the country.
