GAA CLUB

All GAA activities remain suspended at the moment due to the coronavirus and it looks like it will be a while before we see an improvement. Pitched remain closed for matches and training. The walking track around the local pitch remains open and is well used on a daily basis. Those using the facility are reminded that for health and safety reasons no dogs are allowed on GAA property. The walking track is floodlit in the evenings.
