Club Notes - 24th February

Jack The Joker
No. Drawn - 7
Our ever popular Jack the Joker fundraiser continues this Sunday night in Alice O’Connors where the jackpot is €2,800 as on Sunday night last Callum Ferncombe was drawn out of the drum and chose card number 7, which when turned was not the Joker though he did win €50. Declan Byrne and the Morning Club won €25 each. As well as our group of ticket sellers tickets can be purchased from Convenience Store Ballinroad, Village Flowers, Spar, Mousies Takeaway, Minnies Bar and Crotty’s Corner Bar.


Munster Junior Football Semi Final
This Sunday afternoon last our Junior B Footballers made the long journey to Knockaderry in Limerick to take on Sneem Derrynane of Kerry in the Semi Final of the Munster Junior Football Competition. This competition is organised by the Knockaderry club and has been held for the past number of years for the winners of the County Junior B Football Championships. On the day our opponents proved too strong for us and ran out deserving winners. Well done to the players and management for making the long trip on Sunday and for representing the club so well.

Membership
We would like to remind intending members and especially players that membership fees are now due and can be paid to Kevin Tobin or any team manager. We would ask players to make a special effort to pay their membership before returning to training to ensure they are covered by insurance.

Booking of Pitches
As teams start back training over the next few weeks we remind all team managers that they must book the pitches/astro turf with Michael Donovan prior to training and also managers are asked to remember that the main pitch remains closed until further notice.

Club Bingo
Our club bingo will continue this Sunday night in the the CBS Hall with a jackpot of €950.

Sympathy
On behalf of all in the club we would like to extend our deepest sympathies to family and friends of the late Francie McGovern, McCarthyville who passed away recently.
