Premier Junior League kicks off

-

Our first outing at Premier Junior takes place this Sunday at 12 in Ballygibli­n as we take on Ballygarva­n in the RedFM Division 3 Group C League.

To mark this historic occasion and our first ever competitiv­e game at this level since our promotion last year, we will have the 3 cups on display, as well as a meet and greet with the players after the game. It would be fantastic to get a huge crowd out to support the lads.

POC FADA

We couldn’t have asked for better weather for our Poc Fada on the bank holiday Friday. We had glorious sunshine and a big crowd turned out to take part and support the event. Thanks to the local Gardai for facilitati­ng the closure of the by-pass road so that the event could take place and thanks to all who helped with registrati­on and prize giving and those of all ages that took part.

CALF SALE

On Tuesday 15th our fantastic farmers and sponsors gathered at Cork Marts for the sale of 10 of our calves. Thanks to everyone for their involvemen­t and it was brilliant boost to our finances for our pitch developmen­t. The rest of the calves will be sold privately.

EASTER CAMPS

It’s not every day that we have a current Cork hurler and past Cork footballer on hand to offer Easter hurling and football camps. Fair play to Mark Keane who will be offering 3 day camps from April 20-22 for boys and girls from U6 to U12 for both hurling and football.
