Ferrybank GAA - Weekly Notes


JUNIOR FOOTBALL:

Our Junior Footballers are in semi-final action this coming Wednesday night, November 2nd at 8pm at Carriganore against Ballyduff Lower in the John J Murphy sponsored competition.

When the sides met earlier in the season Ballyduff edged out the lads by the minimum score, so another close game is on the cards. Your support will be welcomed on the night, and let’s hope the lads can reach the Eastern Final. Best of luck to all concerned.



DÉISE DRAW:

We had one winner in the October Déise draw which took place in Mellary last Friday night, and congratulations to Ann O' Neill who scooped €100 in the draw. Once again, a huge thanks to all who have purchased tickets throughout the year, and the final draw of 2016 will take place on Friday November 25th in Erin’s Own’s GAA grounds.
