Update: Great win for us today – final score 5-6 to 2-4. We trialled a new technology, Spreaker, to provide live commentary. We didn’t publicise it beforehand for fear it wouldn’t work: but the word spread and we reached 39 listeners. Best of all, the technology worked. You can listen back HERE – it’s broken into a few different files: Let’s try this: live commentary, starting at 12noon, go here – hopefully broadband will hold up: http://www.spreaker.com/user/ballinrobegaa – spread the word. We will be providing updates here from 12noon onwards. We play Shrule-Glencorrib in the Mayo senior football champion relegation play-off, in Hollymount, on Sunday at 12 noon.

Referee Michael Daly, Ballyhaunis.

From Declan O’Loughlin, chairperson, Robe Rockets: Ballinrobe Agricultural Show very kindly invited the Robe Rockets to this year’s event, we created a skills challenge which proved a great attraction for young and old (and is much more difficult than it looks – thanks to Tom Feerick for his devilish handiwork). We also had a guess the number of footballs in the car – won by Pat Hayes, Hollymount. Prizes were sponsored by Tierney Shoes, Rapunzal Hair Salon, Tracey Pharmacy, Martin Murphy and Ballinrobe Acupuncture Clinic. As always many thanks to our sponsors. Well done to all the Ladies coaches, players (boys and girls) and ladies committee members who helped out in the day. It proved a great way to raise a little money but more importantly promote our club in the community.
