I am delighted to announce that the Rower Inistioge GAA Club has been approved a Sports Capital Grant of €85,000 to develop an all weather pitch facility and ball wall in the Rower.

This will be a fantastic resource and underlines the Club's committment to providing excellent facilities for the benefit of the parish.

Key to our success in securing funding was our ability to demonstrate the financial capacity to deliver the project. To that end, I would like to thank all those who supported our Lip Sync and continue to support our Golf Classic and Development Draw.

I would also like to extend my gratitude to all those involved in organising the Lip Sync, Golf Classic and Development Draw. I want to congratulate Jack Lyng, Development Chairman on compiling a professional and compelling case for funding.

It is the Club's intention to progress this project as quickly as possible.

Richard Tierney,

Chairman.
