FOOTBALL CLUB NOTES
Our home delivery and collection service seems to be going down well with a lot of people in the area. So far Jerome and Eoin have been busy and a few more of the lads are available. Jerome can be contacted at 086 382521 and Eoin at 087 7502188.
There is still time to pay club membership and social membership for use of the walking track.
Hope you are all steering clear of COVID-19. Be careful. It seems to be all around us. There will be no lotto for another few weeks.
