Gusserane

THE OVER NINETY CLUB

Luckily we are blessed with many men and women in the parish who have celebrated their ninetieth birthday. Plans are afoot to compile a record of those who are 90 and over. Anyone who has a family member of that age living in the parish are asked to contact Breda at 087 3626216 or Billy at 086 0771029 to arrange for a photograph to be taken. Photos will be published in Tintern review later this year. GAA CLUB ACTION

Well done to Gusserane’s junior footballers on their championship win over Clonard last Friday week and also to the seniors on their comprehensive win over Sarsfields in the third round game played in New Ross last Tuesday. Finally, well done to our under-12 hurlers who beat Ger O’Hans and to our under-14 girls who beat Clonard last week. CYCLE
