Our main sponsors this year are – Drumderrig Nursing Home, ProCloud Horizon Services, Supervalu, Joe Simon Building Supplies, Sports Direct, Grosvenor Services, Stewart’s Oil, Aurivo, The Croghan Bar, Boyle Celtic, Boyle GAA, and Lorcan Egan Insurance. We will publish a full list of all our sponsors in the next few days as sponsorship money is still arriving.

For anyone who had a debit for our existing draws, they will have 6 entries already paid for by direct debit. This will be the last round of this format of the draw.
CONDOLENCES – The club expresses its condolences to Tish and the Perry family on the death of Tish’s brother Gerry McGlynn.
