Sunday night Maurice Cliffe was drawn out of the drum and chose card number 6 which
when turned wasn’t the joker but he did win €50. Hiker and Betty Hayes won €25

World Record
On Sunday last a large group of boys and girls
from our under 12 and 13 teams made the long trip to Croke Park to take part in
the GAA's World Record attempt at having the largest hurling training session. Clubs
from across Ireland were represented as 1772 children and their mentors smashed
the target to create an official new Guinness World Record. All of the boys and
girls who travelled had an absolutely brilliant day out and will remember their
big day in Croker for many years. Sincere thanks to all the club mentors who
helped organise the trip.
