Enniscrone/Kilglass GAA Club Notes



Enniscrone/Kilglass GAA notes 11th June 2017

Fundraising

We have been overwhelmed with the generosity of the local community and indeed beyond in our fundraising efforts for the new Indoor Astro Turf complex. After last week’s collection we are at €70200 and wish to thank all of those who have donated already for their fantastic generosity. We still require €5000 more to hit our target, and anyone who wishes to sponsor a block or a brick can visit our website or contact any committee member.

Intermediate

Our intermediate team suffered a setback to their promotion ambitions last Sunday when they slumped to a 3-14 to 0-8 defeat to Ballymote at Corran Park in the league. Having played into the breeze in the first half, our lads performed relatively well and trailed 0-8 to 0-3 at half-time, but the loss of a number of players and a poor second half performance led to a heavy defeat. The lads will look to bounce back when they host Easkey in the next round on Friday next at 8pm in Quigabar.

Minor/U16

Best wishes to all club players sitting state examinations over the next couple of weeks. Training continues for all minors and U-16s who are free of exam commitments.

U-14

Our U-14 boys lost out to Eastern Harps, 4-7 to 3-8, in the final round of the Division Two league last Thursday evening. Minus the services of some key personnel, the lads led for the majority of the encounter but a late Harps’ surge gave them the points. This squad will travel to Feile on Friday week to represent the club and county, and based on their league performance they will be fine ambassadors.

U-12

Our U-12s return to action this Wednesday evening when they play Tourlestrane at 7pm.

Bonfire Night

We will once again be hosting a bonfire night event at Sheridan’s Kilglass on June 23rd this year. Due to the extraordinary generosity of the local community in our recent fundraising efforts, the night is free of charge with bouncy castles and a barbeque on the night. It all kicks off at 8.30pm – everyone welcome.

Blotto

There was no winner of last weekend’s blotto jackpot. Next Saturday’s jackpot is €8500. Your continued support is greatly appreciated.
