Senior Hurling
We play Cappoquin in our second game of the County Championship this Thursday night in Colligan at 8pm.

Intercounty Activity
On Sunday last Conor Prunty was centre back on the Waterford Intermediate team that were defeated by Clare in the Munster Championship in Thurles.

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 €1700.
