THE GAA will be more like the GEE-GEES (sorry), when Na Gaeil host a race night this Saturday at Na Gaeil clubhouse, under starting orders at 8:30pm.

All money raised from the night will be pumped right back into the club to maintain the high standard its members have come accustomed to.

“Come for the fun, it’s always a great night and is a vital fundraiser for Na Gaeil,” said Theresa Kelliher of the club.

A signed copy of Paul Galvin’s new book will be one of the many spot prizes, along with a €100 for best dressed lady and best hat. Men who go the extra furlong for the night could be in the running  to win a hamper for best hat.

“Everyone’s asking me what’s in the men’s hamper, but they’ll have to come and find out,” said Teresa.

It was a successful year for Na Geail. The highlights being Kerry minor, Andrew Barry, collecting the club’s first ever inter-county All-Ireland medal and the senior team winning Division 4 of the County League.
