Last week, we surprised our u7 Cygnets with Easter Eggs in their last session before Easter. There’s a photo of them enjoying their Easter eggs after training on our Facebook page. Check it out.
Hurling Wall & Astroturf Update
Artificial grass was laid, and the infilling began this week on our new AstroTurf. Handover from our contractors, JNC Premier Pitches is due over the coming week. The club would like to thank each and every person who supports our fundraising initiatives throughout the year.
Your continued support allows us to develop fantastic facilities like the Hurling Wall & Artificial playing pitch. This facility will allow us to cater for a large number of kids and adults all year-round for decades to come. So far, we’ve spent in excess of €1.3m on our new field development, with more planned in the near future. Thank you.
One such fundraising initiative is our Club lotto.
Club Lotto
This week’s Carrick Swan lotto jackpot is a whopping €9,000 as there was no winner of our €8,750 jackpot last week. The lotto numbers drawn were 03 – 04 – 05 -12. There were five match 3 winners with all of them winning €40 each. Well done, all. Your support helps our young players and also helps with our Field Development Project.
Condolences
Carrick Swan club would like to pass on our condolences to the Coady family of Clarin, Lanigan family of Ballinurra, and the Power family of Faugheen on their recent bereavements.
1st Anniversary Mass
The family of the late Danny Walsh would like us to inform you that Danny’s 1st anniversary remembrance mass will take place in St. Nicholas Church, Carrick-On-Suir, on Saturday April 6th at 7.30pm.
