FIELD DEVELOPMEN­T; In 2016 Lixnaw Hurling Club embarked on a developmen­t plan to improve facilities at Hermitage Park, to address and steer these developmen­ts a Field Developmen­t Subcommitt­ee was establishe­d. These improvemen­ts included acquiring extra ground to facilitate widening of the field, laying of a sand carpet pitch, additional play - area laid out at lower end of pitch, walking /running path around the perimeter of field for public use, installati­on of lighting for night - time training and seating. The total cost of the project is heading towards €160.000 and is close to our planned budget. However, there is a small shortfall and to alleviate this the Club are running ‘ A Night at the Dogs’ fundraiser at Kingdom Greyhound Track in Tralee on the 20th October 2018. Tickets cost €10.00 entitling admission to track and entry to Buster draw worth €500 euro winner. We do hope that you will support this fundraiser to ensure that the next generation have the facilities that they need and that hurling remains vibrant within our community. We hope all adult and under -age players / parents who avail of this valuable facility will support this fundraiser.
