TEAM 100:
With the playing season back up and running, many people will have seen the progression of the new clubhouse development. This is the biggest capital development project in the history of Ferrybank GAA club. With the recent upsurge in the underage section, this development will benefit these juvenile members and indeed the wider community far into the future.
This project will deliver a new building, consisting of modern dressing rooms, and a community orientated multipurpose rooms for all.
Team 100 has delivered numerous projects for Ferrybank GAA club in the past, including our hurling alley, running track, ball stoppers, pitch drainage, car park tarmacking, and the initial enabling works for this new project. We would ask everyone associated with the club; parents, supporters and players to join Team 100, and contribute to the continued development of the club and community.
Joining Team 100 involves paying a €25 per month standing-order (€6.25 per week) to the club, which covers your full-membership for the year. This works out as the price of a few cups of coffee/tea a week.
Please talk to any member, mentor, trainer or e-mail ferrybankgaa@gmail.com for an application form to join Team 100.

UNDER 8 BLITZ:
Our under 8 team made the trip to the seaside last Saturday morning to play Tramore in a number of challenge games. With ages ranging from 6 to 8 years old, a full squad of 24 players donned the green jersey, and put in an excellent performance throughout the matches played.
They played with great energy, and despite the heat, it didn’t faze them whatsoever, as they gave it everything from start to finish, which no doubt left the coaches and mentors delighted with the effort shown.
Thanks to Tramore for being excellent hosts.
TEAM: Killian, Sadie, Tiernan, Sean, Anna, Cadyn, Olivia, Ella, Joey, Jamie, Lena, Bobby, Lingwei, David F, Freddie, Mason, Joey, JJ, Maeliosa, Alafia, Amar, Logan, David P, Rian.
