45 DRIVE

45 DRIVE: The weekly 45 card drive in aid of the Ballybrown Community Resource Centre continues every Thursday night at 8.45pm and your support would be greatly appreciated. Last weeks winners were as follows : we had two teams on 9 games and they decided to divide the prize money of €160.00, Anthony McGann with Leonard Coughlan and Donie Lane with Pat Mulqueen. The table prize went to Junior Hogan and Jimmy McNamara.

Raffle prizes as follows : 1/ €30, Pauline O’Connell, 2/ €20, Maura Byrnes, 3/ €20, Pat Condon, 4/ €10, Evelyn O’Brien 5/ €10, Maura Byrnes and 6/ €10, Pauline O’Connell.
The league, twelve best scores out of fifteen, has now concluded and after a very close battle Billy Sheerin takes first prize of €150.00 with 84 games. We had joint second prize winners in Pat Mulqueen and Donie Lane with 81 games and they get €65.00 each. The league was a great success and went right down to the wire.
Thursday May 21 is our final drive after which we take a break for the summer months and will be back again god willing in mid September. We would like to thank all our supporters who turned up over the past year. We would like to thank Maura Byrnes and Helen Kennedy for looking after the catering each Thursday night. And a big thank you goes to our organisers Joe Purcell, Peter O’Sullivan and Willie Ryan for another great season and they are off now for a well earned break. See you all on May 21 for the final drive of the season. Thank you.
