The proposed trip to New York during Easter week 2025 got the green light from a well- attended meeting in the club on Tuesday last. To date over 50 players and club members have expressed an interest in travelling.

Tinryland U14 team will travel to Hacketstown on this coming Wednesday 7th August for a game with Clonmore. The throw in for this fixture is timed for 7 p.m.

One of our club’s main fundraisers is the club development draw in conjunction with Carlow Co. GAA board. The tickets for this years draws which take place during August, September, October and November have now been distributed. All members, players and supporters are asked to sell a minimum of two tickets each so that our target is met.

A major photographic exhibition will be held in Tinryland Parish Hall on the weekend of 23rd to 25th August capturing Tinryland’s rich history, heritage and community past and present and our club will feature prominently in the exhibition which will be launched on Friday 23rd August.
