The annual club awards night which was postponed previously will now go ahead this Sat night.
Venue is the Bandon G.A.A. Pavilion and a 7.30pm sharp start.
There will be music for the younger members and the young at heart after.
This night is normally a very good night and as well as celebrating the fantastic season the club had in 2010, its also a great opportunity for athletes, parents and coaches to chat and catch up outside of competitions and training.

We would encourage all athletes and parents to attend.
Hope to see you all there.
