BALLS BOYS : A GREAT SUCCESS

On Saturday 26^th September, Bandon's Senior team played Ballinhassig in their first home game of the Munster Senior League. Although, Bandon were defeated, the introduction of ball boys was a big hit with both sets of players and management. This is a new idea that will be implemented at all home games for the Senior team and Ladies Team. Each underage team up to U.14's will have a turn at the role of Ballboys / Ballgirls. On this occasion, it was the U12's WCL team that helped out on matchday. The Boys really enjoyed it and look forward to having another go.  The Club and Senior Team are very grateful to the lads for their help. Senior team manager Gerry Grady expressed his gratitude to the lads by saying, "The lads are a credit to the club."

Thanks again to Dan O'Mahony, Aaron Burnes, Ryan Twomey, Luke McCarthy, Issak Forde, Dylan Shiels, Jordan McCarthy, Shane Creagh Piper, Cian O'Connell, Joseph O'Mahony, Darragh Creagh Piper.
