Welcome to this week’s club news.
QUIZ NIGHT: Four of our Strictly Greystones dancers, namely Laurie Ahern, Josephine Lloyd, Carmel and Daire Deeney are hosting a table quiz to contribute to their fundraising efforts. It will take place on Saturday 16th May at 8pm in the clubhouse. €10 per person and BYOB.
UNDER 10 FOOTBALL: So far this season our U-10 footballers have participated in two Go-Games blitzes and the mentors were happy to report that they were in a position to field 3 teams on the two occasions. Ashford was the venue for the first series of games which involved teams from Bray Emmets, Ashford, Barrindarrig and Éire Óg. Every team played three games.The weatherman definitely had it in for the participants that evening: it bucketed intermittently. Adults worried and thought it would be best to call the event off whereas the children, as is the wont of youth, were oblivious to the conditions and insisted it go ahead. They participated with relish and went home wet but happy of heart.
WEEKLY LOTTO: There again was no outright winner of the club’s weekly lotto jackpots. The winning numbers were 2,7,22 & 23. Jimmy Gammell matched 3 numbers and wins €200. Next week’s jackpot rises to €3,400. Tickets are just €2, so please consider playing at www.eireoggreystones.com
SENIOR FOOTBALL Our seniors registered another victory in Division IA of the League when they defeated Donard on the Mill Road on Saturday evening. Proceedings did not go at all as smoothly as the local followers would have liked with victory only becoming assured in the last quarter. In the first 20 mins our chances looked bleak with a disappointingly lethargic Éire Óg falling 5 points to one behind. The fightback was far from convincing until a goal from Dave Behan (2-3) brought us very much into contention against what was an extremely lively and intelligently moving Donard side. Craig Smullen (0-2 from frees), Eddie Davis, Jamie McDonald, Sam Thompson (a point each), accounted for the remainder of Éire Óg's scores.
SENIOR HURLING: It is a sad fact that there is a paucity of games at senior level within the county so the hurling management in Éire Óg is in constant trawl for matches against suitable opposition for its top flight players. Recently it arranged games against ARP and Avondale.
