Newtown Club Notes

June 10, 2019

Huge thanks to the late Sean McShane's two sons John and Paul who hosting yet another fabulous annual fundraiser in Druids Glen on June 2nd. Monies raised were in aid of the club and Pieta House. A sun shone and a great day of golf was had by all, next year is the 10th anniversary of the Sean McShane memorial and it promises to be a big one! Thanks for Dominic Leech, Druids Glen, all our sponsors and all those involved in making it such a memorable event.

Newtown GAA extend deepest sympathies to parents, children and family of Thomas (OXO) Doyle who sadly passed away on Saturday last. May Thomas rest in peace.

The Nursery is running every Saturday morning at 11.30 and each week the children have super fun, so come along and join in. A massive thanks to Adrian Dunne Pharmacy and Denise who got in touch to see how they could help out!! Denise couldn’t have began more helpful and arranged great new t-shirts for all the kids. 

The U11s fell to a narrow 2-7 to 2-5 in Barndarrig on Wednesday evening. Newtown had the advantage of a decent breeze in the first half but only went in level 1-2 each at half time, setting a difficult task for the second half.They played most of their best football into the wind in the second half with some hard earned well worked scores but the home side picked off a few good long range points of their own to edge the game. Overall another good competitive game for the 11s between 2 evenly matched teams.

Team: Luke Turley, Sam Fenelon, Noah Flannery, Aaron Garrett, Dylan Dunleavy, Cathal o Toole, Pat Carey, Aidan Heffernan, Mike Synnott, Ryan Mc Donald, Darren Fisher, John Turley, Oisin Duffy
