Upcoming Fixtures

County U21 Football Championship Quarter-Final

Fr. Caseys Vs Adare, Saturday December 9th, time and venue to be confirmed

 

County U21 Football Championship

Fr. Caseys 2-12 Mungret 1-07

 

Fr. Caseys U21 Footballers booked their place in the county quarter final last Friday night with an impressive 2-12 victory over Mungret in Mick Neville Park. Having narrowly lost their opening two group games, Fr. Caseys knew anything but a victory would end their campaign. Mungret entered the game with a similar prospect so a tense evening was in store. Fr. Caseys brought their kicking boots on the night and in a cold Mick Neville Park they raced into a commanding 1-09 to 0-04 half time lead, Pa O'Connor getting the vital goal. With an eight point advantage the half time message was to protect their lead and that is exactly what they did, matching Mungret score for score in the second period, each adding 1-03 to the scoreboard to leave the full time score Fr. Caseys 2-12, Mungret 1-07. Next up is a meeting with Adare in the county quarter finals this coming weekend. Having captured the Senior county title in October, Adare will be looking for a double of county honours but hopefully Fr. Caseys can rise to the challenge and deliver. We wish the very best of luck to the team and management in this knockout encounter.

 

Annual General Meeting

Fr. Caseys GAA Club will hold its Annual General Meeting this Thursday night, December 7th in the GAA Clubhouse at 8pm. We would strongly encourage all club members to attend this important meeting as we look to build for the future.

 

Club Social

Fr. Caseys GAA Club will hold its Annual Club Social on Saturday December 30th in the GAA Clubhouse at 9pm sharp. We would love to see a large crowd present to help celebrate a very successful year with the highlight being our Junior A Footballers winning the West Championship for the first time in 55 years along with capturing 3 league titles. There will be a 3 course meal served on the night and music afterwards. Tickets for this event are available from any committee member and cost just €15.
