Local Defibs - A list of defibs in Blessingto­n and surroundin­g areas is on the Blessingto­n GAA Facebook page.

Under-12 Ladies – March 10. What a super game for our under-12 girls blue team against Rathnew in Rathnew especially in the second half when we started to hit our mojo.

The girls listened at half-time and it proved to pay off. Every girl put their heart and soul into it. We couldn’t be prouder as coaches still loads to work on in training but a good start to the league. Katie Behan was the POTM, she was outstandin­g. Final score line: 4-7 to 3-3.

Lotto - No winner of the lotto on March

10. Three matched three numbers and win €100 each – Oliver Byrne c/o Bealins, Orla Howlin Ashton and Tommy Treacy, Rockypool. Thanks for continued support.

Considerin­g the current situation, our lotto draw that was due to take place on Tuesday, March 24, will now take place on Sunday, March 29, and the jackpot will be €2,600.
