Cairde members have the option of switching to section 307,303,302 (first come/first served) and availing of the discount or retaining their Cairde seat and buying tickets for family etc in 307,303,302.

The club’s Skills Academy returns after its short summer break this Saturday at 9.30am, in Flanagan Park. All players up to the age of 12 are welcome to come along. Parents have been of enormous assistance to this Academy and we look forward to a large turn-out again on Saturday. It will continue each Wednesday (6.30pm) and Saturday (9.30am) until the winter winds blow in from wherever those dastardly winter winds blow in from – but on these cloudless days, with Mayo on the march, we needn’t be thinking such dark thoughts.

The club is grateful to Helen O’Shea who recently nominated the club as the recipient of a quantity of Powerade sports bottles that she won in a competition. As a club catering for players from 5 to 45, we are always happy to receive equipment. Hydration is a crucial issue for all sports people, not least on the balmy summer days we are currently enjoying. So, thank you very much Helen – the bottles are already being put to good use.
Congratulations and many more years of happiness to Johnny and Josie Buckley, who celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on Saturday last. Johnny is a club stalwart who reaches into many areas of the club’s operations. We wish them many years of happiness.

Our U10 team won the Mulroe Cup in Tourmakeady yesterday. We won it last year as well. Well done to all involved. Here’s report by Bord na nOg chairman John Sweeney Ballinrobe under 10s brought home the first piece of silverware for underage teams in Ballinrobe last Sunday with an impressive victory in the Mulroe Cup at Tourmakeady. Having disposed of the Neale in the semi final, they finished in style by beating Tourmakeady in the final. In doing so our under 10s, led by captain for the day Jack Woods, retained the Padraic Mulroe cup and we at the club would like to thank the players and their families who attended the tournament and the organising committee at the Tourmakeady show for a job well done. Now all we need is for Mayo seniors to emulate them in September!!
