Next Sunday is a big day in the history of the Colmcille
Football Club with the official opening of the new Prunty pitch. It
commences with mass at 9.30 a.m. in St. Colmcilles Church for all past and
present members of the club and we would hope that the minor club will be
well represented and make a big effort to be present. This will be
followed later in the day at 3 p.m. approx. with the blessing and official
opening of the Fr. McGee Park. Please check website for full
details of all the other activities that are taking place at the Park over
the weekend and we hope to see a big turnout of support for the club on this
special weekend.
The senior team are in action against Fr Manning Gaels at 3:30 on Sunday. This will form part of the the pitch opening event for the day but there will be 2 league points at stake also.
