To help the team on its road to victory, sports representative, Maurice Hennessey, was presented with a set of jerseys from Noreen Gallahue, of Gallahues pub, Ballylanders. We really appreciate this very kind gesture from Noreen Gallahue. The Ballylanders group passed on their goodwill when they presented a cheque for 200 to Kathleen Sampson of the Ballylanders and District Association for the Handicapped who visit Lourdes on June 6. The club which is 10 years in existence this year and has an extremely strong membership of 117, is busy with preparations for its Field Evening on June 25. All hands are on deck at the moment.
Training is ongoing for hurling, football, camogie and outdoor soccer.
The Ballylanders club is also involved in hosting agricultural groups from America and France around Ballyhoura. We are involved with this through Ballyhoura Failte. The list of achievements attained by the Ballylanders Macra goes on and on. Last week, Seamus Buckley and Ger Hanley won county titles for dairy stock judging and sheep judging.
