The Annual General Meeting of Newmarket GAA Club will take place on Sunday, December 18th in the clubhouse meeting room at 4pm. All club members are requested to attend.

At the Cork County GAA Convention last Saturday evening, the senior football championship draw for 2012 was being awaited with much anticipation by all within the Newmarket club. The draw pitted Newmarket with a heavy weight contest against one of the most famous and successful clubs in Ireland, let alone within Cork GAA circles, the iconic St. Finbarrs club. A club that has tasted All Ireland club success at senior level in both football and hurling level, it promises to be a much awaited contest come the month of April. Newmarket and St. Finbarrs made acquaintance in 2008 when they contested the County Under 21 Football Final at Páirc Uí Rinn where the city side emerged victors by 1-14 to 1-8. The defeated side will have a second round contest against the losers of the Castlehaven verses Aghada encounter.

Newmarket GAA Club will be running a Victory Celebration Dance on Thursday, December 29th at Hourigan’s Lounge commencing at 9:30pm. Music will be provided by David John & Dave. Tickets are priced at €10 and proceeds will go towards a training fund for the Newmarket team that brought the County Premier Intermediate title to the club last October.
