National League Pool Sheets
 Last weekend's pools competition on the National Hurling League games produced an outright winner in Michael Garvin Snr. with 18 points. Second on 17 points were Colm Geoghegan, Alan Gallagher, Keith Merchant and Enda Varley followed by Matt Kirby, Eamonn Gallagher, Mick Keenan and Pat Garvin on 16 points. Thanks to all who enter this competition which is great value at just €3 per entry and as usual next week's entry sheets can be picked up in the local pubs, the post office or from any of the players.


 

Minor League

Our minors had their first outing of the year when they played Garrycastle in Ballinagore on Sunday morning. Played in very wet conditions it was the visitors who prevailed on a score line of 1-13 to 1-06. The management team wish to thank the lads who made themselves available on such a bad morning and with a few more training sessions under their belts this side will improve as the season progresses.

Panel; Jamie Fallon, Conal Fagan, Paddy Doran, Matthew Looran, Fergal O'Brien, Eoin Kiernan, Darragh Seery, Aaron Glennon, Finian Heeney, Eoin Glennon, Morgan Gavigan, Jack Gallagher, Jamie Keenan, Dylan Clarke, Barry Bolger, Conor Murphy.


 

Sympathies

The club extends its deepest sympathies to the Cuskelly Family, Garthy, on the death of Vivian's father, Philip Lowry, Tullamore. RIP.

Membership

Membership is now due for all members and with the playing season on the horizon we insist on all players paying their membership or they will not be covered by insurance. At a cost of just €20 for adults and €10 for students we encourage all players and supporters to contact any committee member over the coming weeks. Players can give their membership to Darren Ruane or Neal Kirby. Paid up members are also included in the draws for our club's All Ireland ticket allocation.


 

National Club Draw

Our club are taking part in this annual draw in which all of the 20 excellent prizes, from a Renault car to All Ireland packages, are sponsored by the GAA. All funds raised from the sale of the €10 tickets are retained by our club with the draw being held on the 8th of March.


 

Pilates

The club's Health and Well Being Officer, Ethel Wallace, is holding Pilates classes on Tuesdays at 8pm in St. Michaels Hall, Castletown. The class is for males of all ages and costs only €6 per class and all you will need is an exercise mat, which are readily available these days.
