UNDER 11 HURLING:
Our U11 Hurlers enjoyed a good win over Ballygunner ‘Red on Monday evening.
NURSERY GROUP:
Another big attendance in the club grounds at the weekend, with plenty of boys and girls enjoying the training, and learning plenty of skills. As usual, everyone is most welcome to come along and attend.
Credit to all the mentors and trainers, who have put in a great effort during the start of the year to ensure excellent turnouts, week-in, week-out.
DÉISE DRAW:
The 2022 Déise Super Draw will commence on Wednesday, May 18th. There will be six draws in total, taking place every four weeks. Each ticket for the draw cost €15, or €90 for the six draws. A total of 23 cash prizes ranging from a top prize of €10k for the 1st prize, €3k for the 2nd prize, €2k for 3rd prize, €1k for 4th and 5th prize, all the way down to prize number 23. Also on each draw night, there will be bonus draws for special prizes.
As we all know, the Déise Draw has been a key fundraiser for the club, year-in, year-out. The money retained by the club (70% in total) goes towards maintaining the costs associated with the day-to-day running of the club. We would encourage everyone associated with the club to purchase a Déise Draw ticket for the year ahead. Tickets can be purchased from any committee member of the club.
COUNTY DUTY:
Best of luck to Shiner Ahearne and the Waterford Minor hurling team that will travel to Semple Stadium this evening (Tuesday, May 3rd) in the semi-final of the Munster Championship, where they play Tipperary. The team had an excellent win in Limerick the previous Tuesday, and no doubt that result will give them a huge lift going into this game. Best of luck lads.
