Club Notes - 29th June

Jack The Joker
No. Drawn - 20
Our ever popular Jack the Joker fundraiser continues this Sunday night in Alice O’Connors where the jackpot is €6,400 as on Sunday night last Neil Moore was drawn out of the drum and chose card number 20, which when turned was not the Joker though he did win €50. Chris Morrissey and Kitty Morley 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, Abbeyside Post Office and Crotty’s Corner Bar.

Intermediate Football
On Saturday night last our Intermediate Football recorded a very good win in their fourth game of the Western Championship when they defeated Geraldines in Bushy Park thanks to a very good display of football. After suffering a big defeat in the first game of the championship the team have bounced back very well and a victory over Dungarvan this Friday night would guarantee that we qualify for the knock out stages of the championship.
TEAM: R. RYAN, G. BREEN, M. LAVAN, D. HENLEY, N. DEE, J. ELSTED, J. RYAN, L. HURNEY, J. BERESFORD, E. ENRIGHT, M. GORMAN, A. O’CONNOR, E. KIELY, J. O’BRIEN, T. MURRAY.

Junior Football
We were defeated by Shamrocks in the Western Junior Football Championship on Sunday morning last in Ardmore. Whilst it was unfortunate to lose the match the team can be very proud of the performance that they gave on the day. This Saturday night they play Tallow at 7:30 in Cappoquin.

Senior Hurling League
We play Cappoquin this Saturday night at 7:30 in Abbeyside in the Sargent Cup.

Hooli Long Puck
Following Waterford’s great win over Clare last Sunday the weekend of the Munster Final in July is sure to be full of excitement as hurling fans look forward to what will surely be a cracker of a game. Why not get into the spirit of the weekend by taking part in the first Hooli Long Puck in Dungarvan GAA Grounds on Saturday July 9th, which is in aid of the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust. Held in remembrance of the late David Hoolihan it promises to be a great success with entry forms available in Alice O’Connors and entrance is €10 per person. That night there will be the prize giving ceremony and raffle with wonderful prizes held in Lawlors Hotel, which should help get everyone in the form for the Munster Final the following day. For further information contact Michael O’Halloran.

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 O’Donovan prior to training.

Club Bingo
Our club bingo will continue this Sunday night in the CBS Hall with a jackpot of €1,850.
