Castlewellan GAC Weekly Notes

writes Martin McClean. Although the main event did not go Down’s way Aislinn enjoyed her run out on the hallowed turf. Despite the cold of the evening Aislinn enjoyed her headquarters experience make her parents Conor and Bronagh very proud of her. Mind you she can walk up Mill Hill faster than her mum isn’t that right Bronagh! Well done to Aislinn. * Good luck to the Down Under-21 Footballers for this week’s Ulster Championship semi final against the holders Cavan. We send our best wishes to Michael Cunningham, Rory Burns and David Gilmore. * The Marie Jones play “A Night in November” will be performed on Saturday 20 April at 8.00pm in the Club Rooms. This much acclaimed play has been performed all over the world. The play is about Ken McCallister, a dole clerk who goes to the 1994 World Cup Qualifier on a night in November in Belfast as the Republic of Ireland plays Northern Ireland. Tickets are on sale from the Club at £10 each. It is anticipated that tickets will sell very quickly as this play has sold out virtually everywhere it has been shown. Can you please ensure you purchase your ticket early to avoid disappointment. * There will be bingo in the Club this Sunday 7 April 2013 at 3.00pm. * The Activ8 programme ended with a flurry of activity.
