Official Opening: The Official Opening of the Lorrha & Dorrha GAA Centre took place on Sunday evening. The weather Gods shone on us with the rain holding off as Tony Reddin performed the official opening in front of a fine crowd. See report elsewhere
It was followed by an Under 21 hurling challenge between Tipperary and Galway which ended in a draw after a hard fought game.
Thanks to all those who helped out over the weekend to have the Clubhouse and the grounds in general looking so well and also to those who worked hard inside to provide refreshments and to Pat & Ritchie for providing the music.
