Disco: The Halloween disco last Sunday evening was a great success for all who attended, just over 170 kids. A big thank you to Jim Connolly and Jimmy Byrne who set up and decorated the clubroom and also the sponsors Connect Credit Union who had goodie bags for all the children. Thank you to DJ on the night Darragh McDonnell and also Ciara and David Dunne, Malcolm McDonnell and Sean Mulligan who helped out on the night.

All Stars: Congratulations to Louth Ladies GAA captain Kate Flood who has been nominated for the TG4 junior player’s player of the year. The winner will be revealed in the City West Hotel on Saturday 16th November.

Rules: Three new rules will come into effect next season in inter county football for 2020; they were passed at a special congress last Saturday week in Corks Pairc Ui Chaoimh.  The sin bin will be when a player receives a black card he will spend ten minutes in the bin, the advanced mark for a clean catch will also come into effect and all kick outs will be taken from the 20 meter line. 

New Grounds: Louth GAA will launch a ‘dual house draw’ this month in a bid to raise finance for their €12 million stadium development in Dundalk. It is hoped all 40 Louth clubs will partake in the fundraiser, with tickets costing €100 each, although there will be no commission or bonuses for doing so. The prizes are a house in Blackrock and another in Drogheda with a third prize of €10,000. Up to a maximum of 25,000 tickets will be made available for purchase, roughly 20 percent of which will be put for sale online, between October and next Easter.
