The Collooney handball Club are delighted to announce
of opening of their new 40 x 20 handball court in Collooney on Friday August 29th
at 5.30 p.m.. After many years of fundraising the project is now completed.
Shane Malone is the main contractor along with many local tradesmen who also
worked on the project. The 40 x 20 handball court cost €200,000 to build.
The historic opening will begin with an Ecumenical
blessing by Fr Pat Peyton PP Collooney & Rev Adam Pullen Ballisodare. Legendary handball players Paddy Walsh &
Mick Kelly will have the honour of cutting the tape to open the new facility.
Collooney handball club development Chairman Hugh McGarry will deliver the
speech. Refreshments will be provided
and the Collooney handball club extend an invitation for all to attend. It is hoped to have the official opening of
the handball courts sometime in 2015 when work on a glass black wall is to be
installed in the 60 x 30 court and work on the viewing gallery will be
completed.
To mark the occasion on the opening of the new court
the handball Bingo committee are adding €500 to the jackpot game on Thursday
night August 28th. The Jackpot will then be €2000. On the last game the
winner of the full house will receive €400 to make the occasion.
