Jack The Joker
No. Drawn - 8
Our popular Jack the Joker Fundraiser will continue this Sunday night in Kennedy’s Live at 8pm where the Jackpot will be €4,164 as on Sunday night Kay O’Connor was drawn out of the drum but did not find the Joker, however he does win €50 plus a bonus of €250 as she won the Bank Holiday Bonus for turning a picture card, while Tony Mahoney and Mairead and AJ won €25.  We appeal to all our supporters to continue purchasing the tickets as the funds raised will go towards our ongoing development works at the club grounds.

The Brawl in the Hall
Our club has teamed up with Brickey Rangers in a novel fundraising event called “The Brawl in the Hall” organised by White Collar Boxing.  The official launch took place on Saturday last at Bushy Park with a weigh-in and opponents coming face to face for the first time.  Training will commence in the near future so all boxers will be in prime condition in time for the big night.  The event takes place on Saturday, 15th December at Dungarvan Sports Centre with tickets priced at €10.  These will be available shortly.  More details to follow in the coming weeks.

This week's photo shows the Ballinacourty Senior Football team that retained the County Championship in 1979. Wins over Rathgormack, Ardmore and Dunhill set up a final meeting with Ferrybank at Fraher Field in October.  After a titanic struggle, Ballinacourty emerged victorious by a single point, 1-12 to 1-11. To win two county titles in succession left no one in any doubt as to the quality of this group of players. A procession that evening to Ballinacourty was followed by a reception in St. Laurence's Hall, Ballinroad. The following night was the occasion of a big celebratory parade through Abbeyside.

The games started at 11.30 with teams of 12 aside all to play each other in games of 16 mins per game. A total of 83 scores were witnessed throughout the tournament with fine individual and team performances on show for all to see. Abbeyside ran out winners on the day ensuring that they kept the silverware in the village for the next 12 months. Congrats lads and well done on a strong team effort. Many thanks must be given out to everybody involved starting with the referees Eoin Kiely and Eamon Crotty who were given late notice the night before but were delighted to help out. Thanks lads. Thanks to the parents yet again who supplied food for the travelling teams and to the mothers who served it up. Your support is much appreciated.
