Membership
Membership for 2012 is now due: €30 for adults, €50 family, €20 for OAPs, and €10 for minors and younger. Players whose membership is not up to date are not insured to train or play with the club. We had 2 players badly injured last year so it is imperative that all players register ASAP. Payments can be made to any of the club officers.
Over the comming weeks we will be starting our big drive to increase the number of Club Members. We will be calling on past members to rejoin and get behind the club and help support its development for the years ahead.

Scór:
After a long absence the club returned to the senior Scór on Sat last 11th February in the Downs. Congratulations to Pat Murtagh, Ned Flynn and Jimmy Haligan (Quiz Team) and Tee Fagan (Recitation) who done the club proud on the night. The Quiz team have made it thru to the Finals while Tee who put in a great performance on the night was very unlucky not to progress to the Final.
Well done lads.
