Barney a big draw for local darts fans
Liam strikes gold at Madrid tournament
DARTS fans can see legendary player Raymond van Barneveld on the oche in Dundalk’s Crowne Plaza Hotel on Sunday October 29th as a fundraiser for Cara Cancer Support.
The Dutch four-time World champion will take on 20 local players to raise funds for the charity and there will be a VIP ‘meet and greet’ session with opportunities for photos and questions before the action gets under way.
The ‘meet and greet’ kicks off at 7pm and the darts at 8.30pm and tickets are available from the Crowne Plaza Hotel reception, through www. tickets.ie or by phoning Finbar on 086-4412761.
Local bookmaker Marcella McCoy has come on board as the sponsor of the event. KARATE-KA from 12 countries descended on Madrid last week for the very first CIKA World Championships. Having attended numerous CIKA Ireland squad training sessions, Dundalk Karate’s very own Liam Hoey (below) was selected to travel to and compete at the inaugural international event in Madrid.
Having competed at local, national and International level here in Ireland over the past few months, this was a still a big step up for this budding Karate-Ka, but he produced a remarable result, claiming the bronze medal in Team Kumite.
CIKA Ireland coaches and family
members were on the sidelines cheering Liam on and everyone at Dundalk Karate - CIKA Dundalk are very proud of their ultra-talented colleague.
