Annual General Meeting 

A large attendance at the recent Craobh Rua Hurling Club AGM were told by Club Chairperson Laurence Bradley that there was reason for optimism for the future within the Club, and that this was due to the hard work, commitment and support of the Club members, coaches, players and all sponsors.

The Annual General Meeting observed a minutes silence to remember past members and friends. Special mention was made of Club Trustee Séan Byrne. Chairperson Laurence Bradley also spoke of the sad passing of Press Photographer Mickey O Rourke. 

Thanks were also expressed to local Clubs and Schools for their help and support during the past year, something which the Chairperson had said was essential to the sustainability  of the Club and the continued development game of hurling in the area.

Laurence who was returned to his role as Cathaorleach for 2019 thanked everyone for their continued support.
