Shannonbridge GAA Club Notes

Last Ten Days for Club Fund Raising Draw.
Last days now to support the club’s “Take Your Pick” fundraiser with the draw taking place in Luker’s Pub on 30th December. Tickets cost from €0.1 to €20.00 and prizes are €2,000, €1000, €500 and three of €100. This has been an exceptionally expensive year for the club, with the opening of our pitch and participation in the Celebrity Bainisteoir TV programme. The tickets are selling well and thank you to all who have purchased to date, all support is greatly appreciated.

Well Done.
To our Club Chairman Damien Brazil, who has been voted football referee in Offaly for the second year in succession.

Congratulations to Padraig Pearses U21s.
Congratulations to near-neighbours Padraig Pearses in capturing the Roscommon U21 title last Sunday. No fewer than six of the panel have close Shannonbridge connections. Eanna, Sean and Tomas Ryan and Niall and Conor Daly are sons of former Shannonbridge players, John Joe Ryan and Pakie Daly and Stephen McManus is a son of Gerry McManus, Garrymore.
