BALLYSTEEN GAA CLUB NOTES
Intercounty Action
Well done to the Limerick Senior Footballers on their victory against Sligo in the League at the weekend. This result saw Limerick win the Division 4 competition along with securing promotion to Division 3 for 2021. A fantastic achievement for everyone involved improving upon the McGrath Cup victory earlier in the year.
Well done to the Limerick Senior Hurlers who defeated Clare 0-36 to 1-23 in the Munster Senior Hurling Championship Quarter Final. An impressive second half saw Limerick pull away and secure a semi final pairing against Tipperary. The match also doubled as the League Final meaning Limerick retained their title as League Champions.

Service to the Elderly
Ballysteen GAA along with Askeaton GAA & Askeaton/Ballysteen/Kilcornan Bord na nÓg GAA wish to offer our services to the eldery and the most vulnerable in our community during this current time and throughout the weeks ahead.
All three clubs are coming together to give back to our community that has supported us throughout good times and bad. We will be offering to help anyone who requires shopping, prescriptions, fuel etc to be collected on their behalf and delivered to their doorstep.
We will support local businesses to help keep our local community going. Listed below are our coordinators numbers. You can ring or text these numbers and we will organise assistance thereafter. Best hygiene practices will be used by our volunteers during the delivery of this service.
Thanks to everyone who is volunteering as part of this. Every little helps in the sustainment and sense of community amongst ourselves. Please remember to share this information to people who are not on Social Media so that they know this service is available.
