Committee Meeting
Fr. Caseys GAA Club will hold a committee meeting this Wednesday evening, February 8th, at 8pm in the GAA Clubhouse. All committee members are urged to attend.

County Senior Football Championship
The Limerick County Senior Football Championship draw took place last Wednesday night at the Woodlands Hotel, Adare. Fr. Caseys were drawn in group 2 beside St. Kierans, Galbally, St. Patricks, Adare and Mountcollins. As with previous years the top team from both groups qualify for the county semi-final with the second and third placed teams qualifying for the county quarter-finals. The teams drawn in Group 1 include St. Senans, Ballysteen, Monaleen, Ballylanders, Drom/Broadford and Newcastle West.

On paper Group 1 looks like the toughest group with the two county finalists plus former champions Drom/Broadford and Ballylanders included. While Group 2 may not contain teams with the same rich history there is no doubt that Fr. Caseys have been pitted against some highly talented and emerging talent. St. Patricks, Galbally and Mountcollins have between team won the last three Intermediate titles and there is no doubt they will be aiming to mature to the knockout stages this year. St. Kierans and Adare are both seasoned Senior football teams with some highly rated individuals and they will also have their eyes set on the county crown. An interesting year awaits us as we bid to claim our 9th County Senior Football title.
