Club Development News
The surface at the ball wall in the Bleach was resurfaced
in early December, along with the mounds of earth
along the sides removed, allowing the size of the area to
be extended also. Floodlights for this area are in the
process of being erected over the coming weeks also,
allowing winter training to recommence.
A big thanks to Arkill for completing the work & the
development committee for their overseeing.
Valley Rovers are pleased to announce that they
received a grant of €2,777.10 from the GAA Munster
council recently. This is a development grant, with
the Munster Council the only Provincial Council to
present grants to Clubs for development. Valley
Rovers were one of 33 cork clubs to receive funds.
Many thanks to the Munster council for their ongoing
support of club developments.
Club Treasurer Seamus McCarthy was on hand at a
function in Pairc Uí Chaoimh to collect the cheque on
behalf of the club, pictured below.

2018 season. This is a lovely way to recap on the
memories of 2018 & is well worth taking a look at so
be sure to show the kids!

Valley Rovers History
Valley Rovers are in the process of gathering
information with the view of recording the History of
Gaelic games in the parish in a book. This project is
covering all aspects of Gaelic games, be it Hurling
Football, Camogie and Ladies Football.
Thanks to those who bought Historical items along to
the hall last Sunday for the club to use, it is much
appreciated. It's still not too late to contribute
though. Please Contact any officer or email
[email protected] If you have any
memorabilia, pictures, old medals, old minute books,
old AGM reports etc in your procession. Remember it
is not just information from the starting days of the
club we require; it is information from all decades up
to 2018.
All information is welcome and we will endeavor to
include as many items as possible.
For more details or any queries please contact
