Ballycumber GAA Club.
GAA National Club Draw 2020.
GAA National Club Draw 2021 tickets at 10 euro are now on sale. There are great prizes on offer and with all funds raised staying with the Club we ask all members to support this draw. The Club are planning to remove a large section of the Leylandii trees at the Railway Station end of the pitch and construct a Bio Diversity area, including a wild flower garden, fruit trees and native trees. There are also plans to carry out repairs to the Walking Track. The costs involved in carrying out this work will have to be met from Club funds before any funding can be accessed.

The numbers drawn were 2,17,22,30 No jackpot winner, one match three winner.
