The Annacurra Race Night will be held on the 14th March in The Saltee.

To buy a horse it will cost €10 and €50 to sponsor a race. Each player in the club will have a sponsorship card if you wish to buy a horse.

All cards and money are to be returned by next Thursday 12th so it would be wise to sponsor a horse before this. All support is greatly appreciated.

The funds from the Race Night will go back into the club for the development of the pitch.

For more details you can contact Patrick Moules at 0879832845.

The club hosted a Foundation level coaching course in the Community Centre recently, to get all our juvenile team mentors trained up for
the coming year. Colm Gaskin gave the course which was attended by the following, Neil Fitzgerald, Deborah Doyle, Brian Moran, Charlot Doyle,
Brian Barnes, Ann-Marie Doyle, Angus Bate, Declan Byrne & Martin Fitzgerald. Hopefully all will be involved with the various teams
during the coming year.
