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
One of our most loyal and
dedicated Club Members Liam O’Connor is calling on all Abbeyside/Ballinacourty
members, players, supporters, friends and cycling enthusiasts to support a
Fundraising Cycle which he is organising on Saturday August 2nd. Liam
is organising the cycle from Limerick to Abbeyside to raise much need funds
towards the running and further development of the club. As you all know the
club has had huge success on the playing fields last year and all our club
teams and ladies represented the club with great pride throughout the year. The club would not be able to run as smoothly
as it currently does without the huge volume of volunteers who give so much of
their time to coaching teams, by working on committees and doing countless
tasks in fundraising and all other events run by the club. The facilities in
our club have been brought to a new level in recent years thanks to the generosity
of all in our Parish who give very generously when club people come calling at
their homes, work places, shops and businesses to raise funds to help pay for
projects such as the refurbishment of
the dressing rooms, installing state of the art floodlights and generator
to run lights, the erection of a state of the art ball alley to improve
hurling skills and the purchase of almost 8 acres and the developing of the
third pitch which will cater for the needs of the club teams for many years to
come. We would like to thank all those
people who have dug deep into their pockets to allow the club to be able to
provide all these amenities. Liam is calling on any who would like to join him
on the cycle to let him know in the next few weeks. The cycle will cater for all levels of cyclists
and will involve a trip of around 85 to 90 miles. Please contact Liam, Michael,
Benny or Beanie to let them know of your interest and meetings will be
organised to let people know of what it takes to be a part of a huge fun
cycle. Liam can be contacted at
0851191908 or liam.oconnor@augh.com, Michael can be reached at michealcosgrave@hotmail.com or 0877682068, Benny can be contacted at benny.i.flynn@gsk.com or 087-9352716 while Beanie can be reached at liambyrnebeanie@yahoo.com or 087-6436046
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 team managers to please try and do as much heavy training in the
areas behind the goals.
