Intercounty Games
On Saturday last a number of our club players were involved with the
Waterford Junior and Senior Football teams who took on Cork in Fraher Field.
Firstly Gary Hurney was a selector on the Junior Football team where James
O’Mahony and Conor McCarthy were on the team. Laurance Hurney was a selector on
the Senior team where Stephen Enright, Brian Looby and Michael O’Halloran were
on the team that gave a wonderful performance, but unfortunately just came up
short of recording a historic victory.
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 €1250.
Sympathy
On behalf of all in the club we would like to send our sympathies to the
family and friends of the late Margaret (Peggy) Burns, Tramore who passed away
recently. Peggy’s son Johnny was a key member of our successful Senior Football
teams in the 1970’s and 80’s, after which he gave many years coaching numerous
underage teams to County Titles. Peggy’s grandsons featured on some of those
teams and her great grandchildren continue to wear the club jersey today. Once
again we send our sympathy to Johnny and all the Burns family on the death of
Peggy.
