There was good news for all involved in the Offaly GAA Football and Hurling academy last week when it became known that the Offaly GAA board had acquired substantial sponsorship from an Edenderry businessman for a three year period with a view to continue.
John Foley , along with his wife Marie and daughter Orla of Accelerated Drain Cleaning have promised a substantial investment in the future of Offaly hurling and football and a major launch night will take place in the GAA centre Edenderry on Wednesday night week the 6th April.
Attending the launch night and performing the official ceremony will be GAA president Sean Kelly accompanied by Minister for Finance Brian Cowan and the possible attendance of other high profile politicians. The event will also be attended by past and present Offaly greats.
This is a major achievement for Offaly GAA and praise for securing the future for young hopefuls in Offaly must go to county board chairman Ollie Daly who is fast proving himself a real workaholic for Offaly GAA.
The Foley family have never been found wanting when it comes to promoting underage activities in all sports in the Edenderry area and the committee of Edenderry Bord Na nOg hope they have a terrific launch night and a very successful association with Offaly GAA.
The night promises to a superb event, the night will get underway at 8pm in the GAA centre and music will be by Simon Casey. Admission is free and everyone is welcome.
