TINTERN LOTTO
There was no jackpot winner in last week’s draw when the numbers drawn were 18, 26, 27 and 28. This week’s jackpot now stands at €16,850. Well done to Garrett Finn of Kinnagh, who somehow managed to match three numbers twice to win €100 each time.

GAA CLUB NEWS
A large crowd from the parish was in New Ross to view the Gusserane presence in the St Patrick’s Day parade last Friday. The club filled two floats with players and mentors where they celebrated the 2016 senior football title. Operation Transformation also featured prominently with Mairead Redmond talking her place on the float. On the field of play it was a good weekend for the club also.
The senior footballers defeated Bannow-Ballymitty in an entertaining league game on Saturday while the minor hurlers continued their winning ways with a good win over Cloughbawn on Sunday.
