This coming Friday night March 15th at 7:30pm in Carriganore will see our U19 footballers play De La Salle in the semi-final of the Whites Bar sponsored competition. This will be a stiff test for the team, but they will give it their all on the night, and your support will be greatly appreciated.
UNDER 17 FOOTBALL:
Ferrybank’s U17 Football match against St. Saviours has been rescheduled for Wednesday March 20th at 7:30pm in Carriganore.
JUVENILE GAELIC GAMES ACADEMY:
The club’s Nursery Programme continues each and every Saturday morning from 10am to 11am in the GAA grounds for boys and girls aged between 5 and 6 years old. The nursery programme teaches children the basic movements and skills required to play Gaelic games including agility, balance, coordination, running, jumping, throwing, kicking, striking and catching. All equipment, hurleys and helmets will be supplied.
DÉISE DRAW:
The 2019 Déise Draw will start on Wednesday, April 24th. It will be the same format as last year, with six monthly draws at €15 per month, with first prize been €12,500; 2nd prize of €2,500, 3rd prize of €1,000; all the way down to prize number twenty (€150). Also, there will be special bonus draws of a Harvey Travel voucher & Super-Valu vouchers to be won.
This is the club’s main source of income, with 70% of the sale of the ticket been retained by the club, which goes towards paying for day-to-day operations. So we would encourage everyone to support the Déise Draw.
