Fr Casey’s GAA Club Notes:
Limerick GAA:
Well done to the Limerick Senior Footballers who registered their first point in Division 2 of the National League with an impressive 0-17 to 2-11 draw against a fancied Meath side in the Gaelic Grounds last Sunday. With upcoming games against fellow strugglers Kildare and Clare to come there is still hope of survival if maximum points can be captured.
Well done also to the Limerick U20 Footballers who defeated Offaly by 0-07 to 0-06 last Saturday and qualify for the Liam Connor Final vs Clare this Saturday March 11th at 7pm in Miltown Malbay. Having suffered a heavy defeat to Clare earlier in this competition they will be looking for revenge and with Diarmuid Buckley as captain hopefully some early silverware can travel to Abbeyfeale.
Limerick Development Draw:
The 2023 Club Limerick Draw returns on Saturday 25th March with a top cash prize of €10,000 on offer each month plus a host of additional cash prizes. With 50% of money raised returned to the local club we strongly encourage all club members to get involved. This year we advise you to sign up online at www.clublimerick.ie. Those nominating Fr. Caseys as their club and choosing the €100 one-time payment option will be included in all club draws for inter-county tickets including any potential All Ireland Finals involving Limerick
