Killeagh GAA Notes

  • Nov 28,2022

CLUB AGM

The Annual General Meeting of Killeagh GAA Club will take place on Monday November 28th at 7:30pm SHARP!

It is imperative that each member of our club will turn up to this very important annual meeting to have your say. Nobody will speak for you at the meeting, so it is important that the officers hear your thoughts and ideas for the year ahead.

JUVENILE END OF YEAR REVIEW

The Killeagh Juvenile Club’s End of Year review will take place on Monday December 5th in the meeting room upstairs.

Again, it is imperative that each member associated with our juvenile club will turn up on December 5th to help towards the running of our academy, which are our future stars of the club.

NATIONAL CLUB DRAW TICKETS

We are selling National Club Draw tickets are €10 each. 100% proceeds are going towards the maintenance of the three pitches and facilities at Páirc Uí Chinnéide. Prizes include a brand-new Dacia Duster car, €2000 in cash or even packages to next year’s All Ireland Hurling and Football Finals. There will be an internal draw also for those who purchase Killeagh GAA tickets. We would ask everyone within Killeagh GAA, Killeagh Camogie and Inch Rovers LGFA to put the shoulder to the wheel with this project as the proceeds will be utilised by everyone as remedial work will be starting on the fields shortly ahead of the 2023 season. Tickets can be purchased from any Killeagh GAA club member. If you have any queries, please contact any Killeagh GAA club officer for further information.

COUNTY CONVENTION

Cork GAA convention will take place on Sunday December 11th at 4pm in Páirc Uí Chaoimh. There are a few things on the clár before the final event of the evening, the Championship draws will take place ahead of the 2023 season. We will have further information in our next edition.

REBELS BOUNTY

The final Rebels Bounty draw for 2022 will take place on Friday, December 2nd in Páirc Uí Chaoimh at 7pm. It will be streamed online where one lucky winner will pick up €100,000 in cash. There are 30 prizes to be given away on the night and we wish all the lucky Killeagh GAA tickets the very best of luck in the draw!

CLUB SHOP

Our club shop is now open every Saturday morning from 10:30am until 11:30am to buy your Killeagh GAA or Camogie merchandise ahead of the Christmas shopping. Cash or Card facilities available, be there early is the advice!

PITCH UPDATE

All pitches are now closed until 2023 due to poor recent weather. Hopefully the weather will ease to give pitches a chance to recover.

All bookings for pitches, ball alley and meeting rooms for the rest of 2022 and 2023 will need to be booked via email only, pitchbookings.killeagh.cork@gmail.com

We ask all teams, mentors & club members to respect this decision for the upcoming season.

Our walking facility will remain open for all members of our club and the community during the season.
