Return To Play
The field
has been a hive of activity since we were allowed to come back following the
Covid break. Every evening there are numerous teams training from adult all the
way down to juvenile hurling camogie and football. During this time we also saw
a number of challenge games take place as teams limber up for upcoming
championship action.
The
grounds are in immaculate condition and it is a testament to a great club
spirit that so many gave of their time during the lockdown to tend to the pitches
and an assortment of other improvements.
We’d also
like to say a big thank you to Dan Casey who facilitated us with a training
area in the weeks Croke Park sanctioned get togethers were allowed but the
pitch remained closed. This was a very generous gesture appreciated by all.
Championship 2020
The first
adult team returning to action are our Junior B hurlers who take on Dungarvan
this coming in Sunday in the Dungarvan club grounds at 2.00pm. Hopefully the
lads can pick up where they left off when winning the Junior C county title
last year. The very best of luck to all involved. The 2nd group game
versus Ballyduff will take place in the club grounds on Friday 07th
August.
We have
also got notification of our Senior Hurling fixtures and first game out is
versus Ballysaggart on Saturday 01st August in Fraher field followed
by a trip to Walsh Park the following Sunday 09th August to take on
De La Salle.
Out
Junior A hurling team will see action on Monday 03rd August against The
Brickies, with the remaining game against Kilrossanty on Sunday 09th
August.
The minor
hurling championship commences on the August Bank holiday weekend.
Given the
new format of each championship the games will be coming thick and fast.
Following months of inactivity, it will be fantastic, and a challenge all
involved are looking forward to.
Deise Draw 2020
The
revised Deise Draw will kick off on August 26th. Over the coming
weeks we will be making a big effort in this regard as it is one of our primary
fundraising streams. We’d appeal to all our member and supporters to purchase a
ticket from any committee member.
Jack The Joker
The ever
popular Jack The Joker will return on the 2nd of August. We will be
picking up where we left off on with a Jackpot of €3,000.
