Tickets for the annual draw are now out and we ask everyone to help give these an extra push as we have a new field to have ready for next year’s season and the sales of the draw contribute towards the funding for it. They are £10 each or 6 for £50. The prizes range from £1000 to £100. There is also a framed print of Ulster All Ireland Captains and Dinner for two in the Tower Hotel. The draw will take place at the Ardmore GAC Dinner Dance in the Tower Hotel on Saturday the 13th of November. It is hoped that every family in the Parish will buy some tickets or even sell some!
The development of the pitch is coming on very well and hopefully when it is completed it will provide a more constructive future for the club and all club members.
We would like to get more lotto ticket subscribers, if you feel you would like to help in this very important fundraiser please contact a member of the committee or a promoter.

The Ardmore Gaelic Summer Scheme had a fantastic turnout of thirty children participating from 6 to 12 years old. Thanks to Derry Development Coach Paul Simpson. Special thanks go to Dolores Quinn for organising the event and coaching on it. Also our fantastic coaches who helped out were Patricia Robinson, Jordan Gormley, Kelly Gormley, Michelle Gormley-Mc Laughlin and Harry Doherty. It is hoped that all children will sign up to the underage teams within the club which will begin in late October.
The Fun day had a fantastic turnout help considerably by the weather. People availed of the BBQ, bouncy castles, raffles and a selection of traditional games. A special Thank you must go to local business which contributed prizes for the raffle and the games, Tony Gormley Electrical Contractors, Quaywest, The Watermargin, Tullyalley and Curry’s Spar, Tullyalley. Some results of the day’s winners consisted of a Meal for two at Quaywest which went to Donna Doherty and second in the raffle for a bottle of wine was Hugo Elliott. The Penalty shoot-out winners were Ladies, Patricia Robinson, Girls, Lauryn Mc Laughlin, Boys Matthew Lusby and Men Ben Higgins. The 3 legged race winners were Orla Morris and Elle Mc Laughlin for the girls and Barry Elliott and Oran Friel for the Boys.
