Sports grant

We were delighted to receive a grant of just over €150,000 from the Community Sports Facility Fund last week.

This is absolutely huge for our club and our plans to carry out major improvements to our facilities. A special word of thanks to our Grants Sub-Committee for all their hard work in securing the funding.

Lotto

Last week’s lucky numbers were 1, 14, 21 and 23. There was no jackpot or Match 3 winner; the Lucky Dip winner was Shaun Pidgeon.

This week’s jackpot is €10,750. Don’t forget our new lotto box in Centra Kilbeggan which allows you to enter our weekly draw by filling in a lotto ticket and dropping it into the box. Draw takes place every Tuesday afternoon.
