with the club after a number of years playing in London and Conor Moloney also
made a welcome return to the club colours.

300 Club and Déise
Draw
As you may be aware we recently launched our “300 Club” Fundraising
initiative. This is similar to the Development Fundraiser we ran in the last
number of years whereby people donated €300 to the club to help with the
development of our club grounds. The money raised from this latest version will
be used to help pay for extending our hurling wall and astro turf, provide
additional car parking and repay our loan with Croke Park. Those who sign up
for the 300 Club will be given a Déise Draw ticket and it also includes their
membership. The €300 can be paid in instalments by Direct Debit or up front,
and all monies raised will be used to improve our facilities for all our
playing members, both young and old. If you are interested in joining the 300
Club then please contact any committee member and they will be happy to help
you join up.
The Déise Draw has been changed for 2017 and it now consists of 6 draws
costing €15 a month or €90 in total. The Déise Draw has been our main
fundraiser for many years and the funds raised from the draw help us meet the
ever rising costs associated with running our club. If you would like to join
the draw please contact any Committee Member.
Field Bookings
We ask that all team managers book their times for training / matches
with Michael O’Donovan in advance of returning to training. Managers must
notify Michael in advance if they wish to change from their allocated time.
Club Bingo
Our club bingo session continues in the CBS Hall this Sunday night with
a jackpot of €1100.
