Membership
With a number of football Championships due to get
underway in the next number of weeks we would ask that all players and indeed
non players make a special effort to pay their membership to our Membership
Officer Kevin Tobin as soon as possible.
Intercounty Activity
On Wednesday last Waterford Minor Footballers were
narrowly defeated by Tipperary in the Munster Championship where Kevin Dwane
and Conor Prunty were on the team while Stephen Cliffe and John Elstead were on
the panel and Gary Hurney is a selector with the team. On next Wednesday they
take on Clare or Limerick where a win would see them qualify for the Munster
Semi Final and we wish them the very best of luck.
Deise Development Draw
Tickets for the 2014 Deise Development Draw are currently
on sale from members of both our Adult and Juvenile Committees. Again this year
there are a number of very attractive prizes on offer every month but the main
attraction of the Draw is that as well as being in with a chance of winning one
of these prizes you are supporting our club and helping us raise some badly
needed funds to run the club. Our ticket sellers will be calling on the houses
of the parish over the next number of weeks but if we manage to miss you and
you wish to purchase a ticket then please contact any member of our Club
Committee.
Fundraising Cycle
We are delighted to report that there has been a truly
fantastic response to our Fundraising Cycle from Limerick to Abbeyside. Liam
O’Connor and his group of helpers have
done a huge amount of work to date and now have the 24 cyclists signed up for
the full cycle which is the maximum amount allowed to do the full cycle due to
health and safety guidelines. The second leg of the cycle is from Cappoquin to
Abbeyside and this part of the cycle is open to all club members and
supporters, whilst the last leg of the cycle will be from Quills to Abbeyside
and it is hoped that as many as possible of our members both young and old will
join the cycle there, to give the 24 brave cyclists who are doing the full
cycle, a final push for home. Liam informs us that the formal launch for the
cycle will be taking place in late June in our pitch and we will have more
details on this closer to the time. In the meantime anybody who has any
questions on the cycle or who would like to volunteer to help in anyway should
contact any of the people listed below. This event promises to be a huge
success and we urge all our supporters and members to lend a hand in whatever
way you can.

Booking of Pitches
All team managers are reminded to please ensure that
they have booked the pitch for training or matches with Michael O’Donovan. We
would also ask tem managers to please try and do as much heavy training in the
areas behind the goals.
