WE can expect some amazing performances, slick moves, colourful costumes and lots of laughter next month when 11 acts take to the stage for Churchill GAA’s ‘Lip Sing Battle’.

Following on from their hugely successful ‘Strictly’ event in 2017, the club has gone for a different type of show and the contestants were raring to go when we met them on Friday night at The Oyster Tavern for the launch.

Jackie O’Mahoney has been working with the lads and lassies for the past month and said things are coming on nicely for the event which takes place on Sunday, May 6 at 8pm in the Ballyroe Heights Hotel.

Continued below…

Two of the four judges have been confirmed for the night and they are Michael Healy Rae and Catriona O’Sullivan, while the MC for the evening will be Sinead Cotter.

The contestants have all nominated a charity to which they will donate their winnings. Tickets are €20 for the strictly over 18s event and can be bought from committee members and by contacting the Churchill GAA Lip Sing Battle Facebook page here.

Meet the contestants below (missing was a group from Patrick’s Hair Salon Tralee — Ciara McCarthy, Emma O’Brien and Anna Griffin).
