Lightning Puts an End to Football Match.

Our Junior B footballers took on Glenville last Sunday in Rathcormac in the 3rd round of the East Cork Championships. A win would see us go through to the next round after we got a bye from Ballinacurra in the previous round. Castlelyons started off well and had much the best of the play in the first half. David Morrison, Leo Sexton and Jack Waters all playing well. We went in 0-6 to 0-4 at the break and things were looking promising. Unfortunately, the weather turned sour and got worse throughout the first half. Thunder and lightning became severe, and the referee decided to abandon the game on consult with both teams. The game will need to be replayed at a later date.

Junior B hurling V Erins Own is to be played this weekend. Time and location not finalised at the time of writing.

Donations Still Welcome for Development

We really are at the final push for donations for the development scheme. Work has commenced so we hope to have a lot of the groundwork done over the next month and to have seeds sat by September. In order to meet these ambitious targets, we need all the fundraising we can get. So please, if you have not donated and would like to do so then do not hesitate to contact Treasurer Mick Spillane on 086 8196232.
