Junior B Football Championship..

Football semi Final on Saturday against Glenville's third team. On Sunday last they had a 2 10 to 1 9 win over Lisgoo;d in Rathcormac Our Junior Football team take on Glenville in the semi final of the East Cork Junior B Football championship on this coming Saturday November the 8th. We've defeated Cloyne and Russell Rovers in our opening games with relative ease. This time last year we faced Aghada's third team in the closing stages of the competition and were defeated so there can be no complacency against Glenville's third team. On Sunday last they had a 2 10 to 1 9 win over Lisgoold in Rathcormac and will face the semi final with confidence. We are still short several players due to injuries and they will be sorely missed. The game is fixed for 3 0 clock on Saturday in Lisgoold  This will be a big challenge so go for it lads.

This  week’s draw took place in Barry’s Bar for a jackpot of €5,600.

Tickets for the weekly Lotto Draw are priced at just  € 2 each and can be purchased from Club members. They are also available in local business outlets  and online at locallotto.ie Support for the weekly Lotto is vital and greatly appreciated as the costs involved in running a GAA Club are increasing all the time. As well as the day to day costs we are planning more major Development work in Pairc na Bride in 2014/15 so finance is always needed. We are always looking for new Lotto Ticket sellers so if you could sell even a few tickets each week it would be of great benefit to the Club.
