Dear Ballyoulster Friends,
Support Your Community Football Club – We Need You!
Did you know that in the past 24 months, our club has invested over €158,000 in essential upgrades and maintenance? Here’s where your support has already made a difference:
- €28,000 on extending the car park
- €70,000 on improving the rocky road
- €60,000 on a new septic tank
On top of that, our running costs have skyrocketed. Unlike what many might think, we do not receive funding from any outside sources. Every major project and upgrade is made possible through fundraising and loans.
It’s easy to assume that a big club with lots of members is financially secure. The reality is, the bigger the club, the higher the costs. As we explained at our AGM this year, we closed 2024 at a loss.
To keep our club growing and thriving for future generations, we are launching our biggest fundraising event yet – “Lip Sync Legends” in Westmanstown Conference Centre on 7th November, and we need your help!
How can you support?
- Take part in our fundraising event – Maybe you have fancied yourself as Elvis or Madonna
- Spread the word to friends and family – (buy a ticket to the show)
- Reach out to companies or organisations who may be able to support
- Make a donation, big or small – every euro counts!
Together, we can ensure our club continues to be a place for community, sport, and growth. Thank you for your ongoing support!
Upcoming Projects
· Resurface existing Astro with additional area for warm up circa €220,000
· New Land Plans: 11 Aside all-weather pitch & 2x 9 Aside pitches, & walking track (rough cost €600,000)
