Lucan Sarsfield’s Club Notes 

New Club Gear 

We are delighted to announce that we have partnered with McKeever Sport as our club manufacturer who will provide all playing gear and leisurewear going forward. We are working hard with the McKeever team to finalise details and designs. We hope to have the club shop fully stocked in the coming weeks. There will also be Christmas packs available to order. Keep an eye out on clubzap and our socials for more information. 

Lotto 

We had no winner of last week’s lotto jackpot of €11,000 

The Numbers were 3, 19, 26, 27 

The lucky dip prizes go to Louise Fagan, Stagg Family, Frank Sherwin, Eileen Benson, Darren Isobel & Molly C/O P Glover. 

This week’s Lotto will be for a jackpot of €11,400. The draw is sponsored by REA McDonald Auctioneers. 

Football 

Due to changing personnel circumstances, Conor Bresnan has stepped down as manager of the senior football team. In his short period in the role, Conor oversaw significant change in both the management team and the playing panel. He built a strong management structure with great people and developed a young and inexperienced panel into a team capable of competing at the highest level in Dublin club football. The key objectives of this year of transition were to retain our status in senior 1 league and championship were both achieved, and he leaves strong foundations for the coming seasons. 
 

Stephen O’Shaughnessy is taking over as senior manager. Stephen brings a wealth of playing experience both with club and county as well as years of management experience in his role with county underage teams. Stephen will build on the work commenced by Conor with most of the coaching and support team remaining in place. 
 

Other changes to the management team see Damien O’Brien stepping down as selector to be replaced by Fergal Gavin.  

The club would like to wish Stephen and all involved with senior football success in the coming years. 

For anyone, either within or outside the club, who believes that they have the ability and desire to join the senior football squad, please complete the short form at https://forms.office.com/e/RMh3xit9fp  and Stephen will be in contact with you. 

Camogie 

Our Minor A Camogie team were invited by their Jersey Sponsor – The Springfield Hotel – for a celebratory dinner. This was a wonderful gesture to commend them on their county championship win. A huge thank you to The Springfield Hotel for being such good hosts and sponsors. 

Juvenile 

Congratulations to our U14A camogie team on their division 2 County Title win against Naomh Olaf’s. This win secures their promotion to division 1 next year. Well done girls!! 

Congratulations to our U15A hurlers on their unbeaten league campaign. The lads had a fine win over Kilmacud Crokes on Sunday to seal their league title. Well done to all involved!
