Jack The Joker
No. Drawn - 36
Our ever popular Jack the Joker fundraiser continues this Sunday night in Crotty’s Bar where the jackpot is €3,000 as on Sunday night Maria and Shirley were drawn out of the drum and chose card number 36 which wasn’t the Joker but they did win €50. Treasa McGovern and Mark Samsel 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 afternoon last we played Modeligo in the Western Semi Final in Fraher Field. A very sluggish first half performance left us with a lot to do in the second half, but to the teams great credit they battled back bravely in the second half and ensured that the result was in doubt right up to the final whistle, with Modeligo emerging as winners after an exciting finish to the game. We would like to thank all the players and management team for their commitment throughout the year.
