East Cavan Gaels GAA Club – Hurling News 9th January 2017
A very Happy New Year to all involved with our club. 2017 promises to be another positive year in the development of local hurling. We have a number of initiatives to roll out over the course of the year and by years end we should hope to see a substantial improvement at all levels within the club.
Just because there is no hurling being played at the moment does not mean there isn’t work going on. A full plan for the season ahead is being finalised and should be ready near the end of the month so to all our players we say enjoy the break as 2017 will be very busy and we hope successful.
Our first groups back hurling will be our U6/8/10 firstly in Kingscourt Community Centre on Thursday January 19th at 6.45 followed by our Bailieborough group on Friday 20th in the Community School Sports Hall from 6.
Registration for the year ahead for all will be in early February.
The older lads will return hurling soon after.
Happy New Year!

Thanks to all our volunteers, our coaches and mentors who continue the difficult but enjoyable job of keeping the national game alive here in this part of county Cavan. Thanks also to those who sponsored our various initiatives throughout the year. Below is a selection of our work and players who played for us at all levels in 2016.

Bailieborough News. January 5th 2017
/in News /by PetraBailieborough News. January 5th 2017 Matthew J. Cullen.
Christmas in Bailieborough
Attendance at all the religious services in the area were up on previous years with lots of people and their families returning home from abroad for the festive occasion. The Christmas spirit was in evidence—particularly on Christmas Eve—with the Annual Christmas Carol singing by the Bailieborough Cancer Fund on Main St.
Footfall in the local shops was up and in the run up to Christmas, trying to get parking on Main St., was a nightmare at times but shoppers made good use of the car parks in the town.
A big well done to everyone who took part in the Christmas Swim in Bailieborough. It was wild, wet and windy but it didn’t hold the locals back from the traditional Christmas Day swim which was being held for the 23rd time with the proceeds going to Bailieborough Senior Citizens. Hats off to the Special Abilities Tutors who took part despite the heavy rain. You are an amazing bunch of volunteers!
The Athletic Club’s Annual St. Stephen’s Day run was well supported with participants eager to clear the cobwebs after Christmas Day. The John Ed Sheanon inspired walk—in memory of P.J. Byrne— on Wednesday was also well attended and supported.
It was also a happy time for one local person/ family, who were the winners of the Christmas Eve Lotto jackpot worth over a cool €4,500,000. The winning ticket was sold in Lorraine Harris’s ‘Supervalu’ and at the time of writing, no one knows who has won it but as usual, there are plenty of rumours and potential candidates!! Anyway, well done whoever you are and good health and happiness to enjoy it!
THANK YOU to all who decorated and prepared St. Annes Church for Advent and Christmas especially Sean Reilly, Olive Steenson, Eileen O’Reilly, Lucy Clarke, Marie Guckian, Geraldine Reilly, James Clarke, our caretaker Sadie Clarke, our sacristan May Cassidy and the members of the Community Employment Scheme. Thanks also to those took part in our liturgies, especially the First Communion and Confirmation classes from the local national schools, the students from Bailieborough Community School, the First Communion Parents Committee, the St. Anne’s National School Choir, the Eucharistic Ministers, Stewards and the Ministers of the Word.
Music is such an essential part of the liturgy and we are blessed to have two fine choirs here in Bailieborough Church Area – the St. Anne’s Choir directed and guided by Derek Eakins and the Folk Choir led by Thomas Hanley and Sean Reilly. We the people and priests of the parish really appreciate, and are thankful for, the work and effort of all involved.
