NA PIARSAIGH GAA CLUB NOTES
ALL IRELAND CHAMPIONS
Huge congratulations to the victorious Limerick Senior Hurling team who won their second All Ireland title in three years following a brilliant victory over Waterford in Croke Park on Sunday.
These are special times to be a Limerick hurling supporter following years of heartbreak and disappointment and it is a time we should all savour.
We in Na Piarsaigh are extremely proud of the contribution made by our seven panelists which includes the Casey brothers Mike and Peter, The Boylan brothers jerome and Conor, WIll O Donoghue, David Dempsey and Adrian Breen. We look forward to you guys bringing Liam McCarthy back to Pairc Dromguil in the near future. Luimneach abu.

CASH FOR CLOBBER
This Monday morning saw the last load of clobber being picked up by truck.
A massive thank you to everyone who contributed to the cause and also to the volunteers especially from the minor hurling squad.
LIMERICK MINOR AND UNDER 20s
We also saw action in the Munster Minor and Under 20 Championship over the weekend.
The minors had a great win over Cork with Vince Harrington and Dylan Lynch in the starting line up with John Fitzgerald amongst the substitutes.
They now face Tipperary next weekend in the Munster Final.
No joy however for the Under 20s who fell to defeat after extra time to Cork in the Gaelic Grounds.
Sean Long saw action with Adam McNamara and Emmet McEvoy ruled out through injury.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Our annual general meeting took place this week for the first time on Microsoft teams.
Upwards of eighty members managed to log on for the meeting where the executive committee was voted back on block. We also had two new members of the committee in Ciaran McHugh and Tommy Cronin. We welcome them on board.
CLUB LIMERICK DRAW
There was a double draw held on the Radio on Saturday with only one prize coming to Na Piarsaigh.
Congratulations to Brid de Brun who won €500.
We thank all our Club Limerick draw members for your support
STREET LEAGUES
The curtain came down on our underage academy for 2020 with a special visit from Santa Claus.
Big thank you our lone piper Frankie Naughton for his display.
A huge shout out to all the underage coaches for their dedication all year and we look forward to seeing you all back on the pitch in the new year.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS
We would like to take this opportunity to wish all our members, sponsors, supporters and families a very happy Christmas and prosperous New Year.
