Terry Coyle Park Development/Friends of Cavan Gaels

Work is well advanced on our new development in Terry Coyle Park. Our new shop and turnstiles are already in operation. Thanks to all those who have already supported our development through becoming Friends of Cavan Gaels. The money from this source along with our Sports' Capital Grant has enabled us to proceed with the building. We urge others who have not joined so far to consider signing up in the knowledge that, by so doing, they will be making a significant contribution, not only to the Terry Coyle Park development, but to the long term development of our young boys and girls.

Bingo

Our bingo supporters are asked to note that our bingo on Friday next 24 April will again take place in the Saint Patrick's College at 9pm. Please note the venue. Thanks to our bingo patrons for their consistent support and to all our stewards. Our club lotto is on sale at bingo every Friday night.
