Many thanks to all who contribute to our weekly Club Lotto. The Club cannot emphasise enough the importance of our members promoting the Club Lotto among family, friends and work colleagues. The Covid-19 restrictions have seriously hampered our fundraising and income The Lotto is now the critical and only source of funds for the Club. We are appealing to all club members to promote our lotto at this time as we are in dire need of funds to keep the club afloat.
Please have your lotto entries in by 7pm, every Sunday evenings.
St Pats Blennerville GAA Ceol and Greetings Production
We want to use this opportunity to thank all who have donated so far to our ‘St Pats GAA Ceol and Greetings Production’ starring local performers and supported by a few surprise guests from near and far. Due to Covid-19 we have missed out on a number of fundraisers including our successful Dingle Way Challenge. We rely heavily on these to run and expand the club. The Club is currently functioning through the support of a short-term loan. The potential of running our normal fundraising activities in the coming months appears very limited as the Covid restrictions will only be lifted very gradually. We are all looking forward with optimism to seeing our young boys and girls, juvenile and senior players take to the pitch and getting back to what we love doing best…playing for St Pats! St Pats are still looking for all our Supporters and the wider Community to make a donation on our GoFundMe page. See link: gofund.me/ea66075a Look Forward to seeing you all again. STAY SAFE & ENJOY & please share the link.
Juvenile Positions The club is actively recruiting new referees to assist in Juvenile games and blitzes. Kerry Co Board will provide full training courses to those interested and the club will also assist in the process. This is a fantastic opportunity to stay active in GAA, represent the club and develop personal skills. Garda Vetting & Child protection certs are mandatory.
We are also looking for a Juvenile PRO to help promote the club’s juvenile section and its activities across various online and offline media. The role will be most suited to someone with a keen interest in online and social media activities and has a passion for writing.
If you are interested, please contact Juvenile Secretary Seamus Murphy or Juvenile Chairperson Joe Costello.
Last Man Standing Competition
St Pats Last Person Standing Competition commenced on the weekend of the 6th of February with 263 entries in total starting the competition and we would like to thank all of you for supporting this fundraiser. After 6 weeks of competition we have 16 players still competing for the top prize of €400. We have 4 Ladies still in the competition who can win the €100 for the last lady standing but can also scoop the top prize of €400 if they are the last Person Standing.
The planned fixtures calender for week 7 was reduced to 4 games this weekend therefore St Pats have decided to take a break from competition this week and we will resume on week 8 on the weekend of the 03/04/2021. Any player that has pre-selected their teams in advance will be given an opportunity to review those selections before the Week 8 games

Club Membership 2021 While we still await a definitive date of when training and games activities can begin again we are working on being prepared to start without delay once a date is confirmed. One step in these preparations is to have members registered and in particular playing members. Players of all ages will need to be registered with the GAA via the Club to allow participation in activities and to complete health questionnaires as part of the ‘Return to Play’ protocol. The GAA has introduced a new on-line system which provides for self-service membership registration and payment for individuals and families. The system is called Foireann, which is Irish for Team, and can be accessed via the Club website www.stpatsgaclub.com or type www.foirean.ie into your internet browser. Members who set up a ‘ReturnToPlay’ account in 2019 to complete the Health Questionnaires can access their Foireann account by using the same logon id and password as used last year. If you don’t have a ReturnToPlay account then you can register a new account very easily on Foireann. Go to www.foireann.ie and follow the instructions for New user. If you go to the Club website www.stpatsgaclub.com further information is provided and if you encounter any difficulties send an email to Sean at treasurer.stpatricksblennerville.kerry@gaa.ie
GAA National Club Draw
Each year the GAA runs a National Club Draw where 100% of all funds raised are retained by each club. The GAA at a national level puts up all the prizes and the clubs keep 100% of all ticket sales to help with the development of each club’s facilities.
The 2021 GAA National Club Draw has even more prizes on offer, varying from a Renault Car to All Ireland Final Tickets, and a variety of cash prizes.
