Club Faithful To Hold Event Ahead of Footballers Championship Opener
CLUB FAITHFUL, the Offaly GAA Supporters club will hold a pre match social event on Saturday the 16th of May at 4.30pm/5pm ahead of the Offaly v Longford Leinster Senior Football championship clash in O'Connor Park at 7pm the same evening.
The event will be held in the Tullamore GAA centre, across the road from O'Connor Park and it will give supporters from the clubs of Offaly a chance to get together before the match and help build an atmosphere ahead of the big game.
Dinner will be served on the evening and there will be a full bar in operation also while some well known pundits in the GAA world will be on hand to preview the all important championship clash between Offaly and Longford.
Former Offaly manager and Longford native Eugene McGee is already confirmed as a guest speaker with more names to be announced in due course while Offaly hurling legend and RTE pundit Michael Duignan will be the MC for the evening.
It is hoped that the clubs of Offaly will be out in force to support Offaly on Saturday 16th May as a home championship game is an advantage best utilised with a big home following.
Tickets for the event can be bought from your local club and Club Faithful hope to have points of contact in all clubs before the week is out. Tickets are priced at just 15 euro a head and that includes dinner and parking for the match (if parked by 5pm) in O'Brien Park, the home of Tullamore GAA.
The parents of the players on the Offaly Senior football panel will be invited as guests of Club Faithful while the after match supporters zone, open to all supporters, normally held under the stand in O'Connor Park will be held across the road in the Tullamore GAA centre where complimentary tea and coffee will be served.
Any profits made from this event will be put back into the underage teams in the County to fund such schemes as the educational Grinds for Minor panels which are currently on-going and other such future endeavors to help underage development. There will be more details on this supporters event in the coming weeks.
