Club fundraising for 2019

  • National GAA Club Draw: Kiltale Hurling Club would like to thank all those that purchased/sold tickets for the National GAA Club Draw – we wish you all the best in the draw and thank you very much for your support!
  • Walkathon – Lets Walk & Talk: Kiltale Hurling Club will again this year be holding the ‘Walk & Talk’ Walkathon over the May Bank Holiday weekend. As in 2018, it will begin on Saturday 4th May at 7pm and end on Sunday 5th May at 7pm, with a function for all in the Clubhouse. 
    • The Walk & Talk was a success in 2018 for all the right reasons, bringing the young and old of our community together. Members past and present met up, had a chat and a social outing, two charities were major beneficiaries, while great funds were put into the running of the club and to complete the redevelopment. We ask you to note the dates, and be part of an event which will hopefully be equally as good in 2019!

We’ve also made significant progression in the club in the past year, as you can see from the photos below

Future projects include:

  • Re-surfacing of the hurling wall Astro-turf
  • Upgrade of main pitch lighting
  • New nets behind the goals

The clubhouse is a very important facility in our parish and always needs support. Like other clubs we don’t want to know what it is to be without it. Drop in for a drink or an ESSENCE Coffee or think about using the facility for a party or meeting.

We appreciate your support and value the custom you all give.
