Return to Play 

Great to see action on our playing fields again as our juveniles returned to training last week in great numbers. Our seniors will return on Monday May 10th. Please remember to observe all COVID guidelines.  

Grounds Development New Floodlights 

Twenty years ago in the year 2001, the club had the foresight to install floodlights on our main playing field & training lights on our training field at a cost of €75k. We were the envy of every club in the county and surrounding area. In recent years the lights have become expensive to operate plus replacement bulbs are very costly hence the need to review. In September last year the club approached the local sustainable energy committee to seek advice on the possible savings on their energy usage. An audit was carried out by the North East Sustainable Energy network and proposals were submitted to replace the present floodlighting with LED floodlights plus upgrading all other lighting applications along with upgrading our heating system. We are confident our application will be successful but we are awaiting confirmation. The total cost is in the region of €100k with a grant available of approximately €50k. Thanks to committee member Phil Smith and the local sustainable energy committee for taking the lead on this project!
