€17,000 lotto jackpot

We'll start this week by highlighting the fact that the club's main fundraiser, our weekly lotto, now has a jackpot worth €17,000. All clubs operating lottos, hope for 'a good run' and continued rollovers have resulted in our jackpot hitting an all time high. The big money hasn't gone unnoticed and with each passing week, ever increasing numbers of lotto players are attempting to relieve our club treasurer of this substantial figure.

At this juncture, the club thanks our lotto committee for their steadfastness and loyalty, commercial outlets for facilating the draw and the public for their support.

LOTTO RESULTS FROM 2ND MAY

Numbers drawn: 02, 05, 15 and 19. No winner. Lucky dips to: €50 Mick Kelleher, c/o Grange GAA; €50 Paul Horgan, c/o Fitzgerald Hurleys, Araglin; €25 - Seamie O'Gorman, Araglin and €25 Brendan Finn, New York, c/o Alan Hegarty.

Next draw, for a jackpot of €17,000 takes place in Christy's on Thursday, 9th May.

CRUNCH FIXTURE FOR FOOTBALLERS

Following an opening round defeat to St. Catherines (Conna/ Ballynoe), our junior B footballers will be hoping to get things back on track, when they face fellow divisional side, Milford, in Castletownroche next Saturday afternoon. It's been an up and down season for our footballers, with inconsistency being a feature of our performances.

Having been training since the first week of February, we've had plenty time to 'iron things out' and hopefully, we'll get both a performance and a result on Saturday. Best of luck to all concerned.

NO WINNER IN REBELS' BOUNTY

The club had no winner in the April Rebels' Bounty draw.
