"Training and Pitch
News" |
Club training has resumed
at Ballykillaire. As you are perhaps aware the Council intend to
carry out remedial work on both pitches before laying 2 new surfaces.
The original intention was that the work would be carried out in August
and September and indeed, this was still the schedule until two weeks
ago. Now, after considerable discussion with the Council over the
summer, there will be minor repair work carried out on Pitch 2 and then
later on Pitch 1. We have pitch 2 available to facilitate matches
on Saturday and the training times are as follows -
Monday 11th - 6.30 - 8 pm Club Training
8pm on - 1st and 2nd X1 training
Monday 18th until further notice - All training 7.30- 9pm
Please remember that we are trying to accommodate necessary work being
carried out on the pitches as well as attempting
to fulfil training and fixture obligations. These arrangements may
change due to the work being carried out. Appropriate details will be
posted on the website should they become available. Please check back
regularly
