BATTLE OF THE PARISH : Rehearsals are well underway for our Main Event of the year on Sunday, 28th October in Ballyroe Heights Hotel.
While the aim of Battle of the Parish is to raise much-needed funds to cover the day-to-day and development costs of running our club, we acknowledge that assisting charitable organisations raise awareness about the tireless work they do for the benefit of others, fits well with the values of the GAA.
A percentage of the proceeds raised from our Battle of the Parish event will be donated to the Kerry Hospice Foundation, which we hope will help in some way to champion their fund-raising efforts. Tickets will go on sale from 6th October.
KERRY HURLING ALL-STARS : The Kerry Hurling All Stars will take place in Abbeydorney GAA Club House on October 6th at 8.00 pm sharp.
The event usually runs for between 45 minutes and one hour. Nominees will soon be announced. The event is free and all are welcome.
