Club Notes - 2nd May


Jack The Joker
Our ever popular Jack the Joker fundraiser continues this Sunday night in Alice O’Connor’s Bar where the jackpot is €10000 as on Sunday night Deirdre Flynn was drawn out of the drum and chose card number 36 which when turned was not the joker but she did win €50. Jimmo Meehan and John Fitzgerald won €25 each. As well as our group of ticket sellers tickets can be purchased from Village Flowers, Spar, Mousies Takeaway, Minnies Bar, Abbeyside Post Office and Crotty’s Bar.

Under 21 Football
On Sunday afternoon our Under 21 footballers travelled to Walsh Park to take on Gaultier in the County Final.  When the sides met a few weeks ago in the 2017 County Final there was very little between the sides so all involved with the team were aware they would have to be at their best to retain our County Title. A blitz like start saw the lads take a lead they wouldn’t surrender for the rest of the match.  The team got some wonderful scores and coupled with great defensive play they ran out comprehensive winners 3:15 to 0:11.
It is a sign of a great team to win championships back to back but to do so in the space of 8 weeks makes the achievement all the more significant. We say well done to all the players and management team involved in this notable victory for the club.
TEAM: K. DWANE, D. MONTGOMERY, C. McCARTHY, S. AHERN, M. TWOMEY, J. ELSTED, D. McGRATH, J. BERESFORD, N. MONTGOMERY, T. LOOBY, D. LOOBY, S. WHELAN BARRETT, A. BERESFORD, E. KIELY, B. MOORE.
