CLG Na Piarsaigh is in the process of developing a five year strategic Club plan, which will map out the future direction of our Club. This is a key development for us as we aim to build on our past and build for the future. As part of this process, we are holding a consultation Club planning workshop on the 20th February next at 7pm at the Club.
The purpose of this workshop is to give everyone in our community the opportunity to have their say in our future. This will be a workshop based event and those present will discuss various topics in small groups, including coaching and games development, communication, facilities development etc.. Everyone present will have ample opportunity to input and it will be facilitated by two facilitators appointed by the Cork County Board.
Your attendance at this important event for our Club is greatly appreciated and we would ask you to encourage others to attend. We look forward to seeing you there.

Na Piarsaigh Junior Camogie team were beaten in the munster final yesterday by Ballybrown Co.Limerick. A great display and never say die attitude brought this game at full time to extra time and it could have gone either way, unfortunately it went Ballybrowns way in the end and they finished the eventual winners by a margin of just 2 points. Great credit is due to all the mentors and girls and supporters who travelled to Limerick
Congratulations to Noel Cronin who won 2nd prize in the Cork GAA Draw for October.

The Aussies namely the Victoria Amateur Football Association from Melbourne came to Na Piarsaigh on the 7th October last and played a compromise game on our floodlit pitch. A couple of the cork footballers combined with our senior footballers put on a great show, in front of a big crowd, the eventual winners being Na Piarsaigh. A great night was enjoyed by all in the Bar afterwards. Congratulations to everyone who worked to make this night a great success.
Our Fundraising draw took place in the function hall on Sunday 30th October last where we had a huge attendance. We had a 80s/90s night and was enjoyed by everyone who attended.
