Edenderry GAA Development update
Planning has been granted for our development and works has commenced on our site as everyone is well aware our new pitches have really taken shape over the summer months and look great. We are very keen to get our teams onto the pitches and use them in anger. Our groundsmen led by Pat Cullen are doing a remarkable job in keeping the pitches in tip top condition.
In the coming weeks some key infrastructure will be installed;
4 sets of goals posts to be installed
4 ball stopper nets to be erected behind each goal
4 Dugouts
Pitch side fencing around pitches
Walking path surrounding pitches and site perimeter
New entrance wall & gates
Boundary fencing around perimeter
Parking layout & surface dressing
Ducting for future floodlighting
Service connections; electric, water & sewerage
Temporary dressing rooms installed.
Other elements such as the permanent dressing room building, floodlights & ball wall will be delivered in later phases.
This is an exciting phase and the site will really begin to take its final shape in the coming weeks. We are looking forward to hosting an open day for members supporters and Donor Wall members very soon.

County Senior Football Championship

Cappincur 2-6
Edenderry had a convincing ten point win over Cappincur on Sunday evening in round 6 of the senior football championship played at Ballinagar. The reds took control early in the game and a Ciaran Hurley point was followed by an Aaron McDonnell goal following a good ball from Ciaran Farrell. Edenderry led 1-7 to 0-2. midway through the first half following good points from Jordan Hayes and Sean Doyle. Cappincur got two soft goals to put them back in the game but Edenderry saw out the first half well and a further goal from Ciaran Hurley left them 2-11 to 2-2 ahead at half time. Cappincur never got closer than nine points in the second period and in end it was an easy ten point win. This was an improved Edenderry performance who showed more commitment and intensity throughout. Their next game is against Ferbane in two weeks and a win and other results going in our favour will mean an automatic semi final position.
