Development Update

With growing season in full swing our ground staff have been extremely busy keeping on top of all the grass across the clubs facilities. Due to a planning delay works on the new lands are on hold but we are confident that will change in the coming weeks.

In April the club received a request for Further Information from Offaly County Council. In relation to certain aspects of our planning application. In recent weeks we have been meeting with Officials from Offaly County Council. in order to resolve the outstanding issues. We are pleased to announce that we have made a formal response and we are now due a decision by 13th July next.

We are hopeful of a positive decision and if successful we aim to immediately set about completing works on site. This will involve the erection of new entrance, boundary fencing, goalposts, ball stops, pitch side fencing, pathways and car parking.

The pitches themselves are in excellent condition and are thickening up nicely. Some of our adult teams will be using the pitches for training purposes shortly, however for health and safety reasons our underage teams won't be able to use the pitches until such time as all the works on site are complete. At this stage we are hopeful this would be before the end of the season.

 

Come Dine with Me

Due to the Large number of people who wanted to be involved in his event, it was decided to move this event to the October bank holiday weekend. This was due to a number of people who are on holidays in July.

 

It works like this; 

 

The club is seeking generous hosts to hold a dinner party at their house at their own expense.

We are particularly seeking the parents of current players to volunteer.  

The host invites friends or family around and charges €25 a head - this money is passed to the Club.

The dinner commences around 6.30pm - 7.00pm

 

Between 11pm & Midnight a Complimentary taxi will take you and your guests to the GAA for the After Party.

During the night hosts will be encouraged to share videos and photos on our social media
