Published on: 17 September 2012


Mayor of Bandon, Cllr Gillian Coughlan, has urged to people of Bandon to get behind the town’s hurlers, when they face local rivals, Ballinhassig, in the County Premier Intermediate Hurling Final this Sunday, September 30th at Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

In what is promising to be a historic day, Mayor Coughlan said: “It would be fantastic to see the town decked out in the team’s colours over the coming weeks, creating a unique buzz and excitement in Bandon. It’s a marvelous achievement by the lads to be on the verge of attaining senior hurling status and I think it would be a fitting way of showing our appreciation for a team that has brought great pride to our town.”

Mayor Coughlan added: “In time of such talk of doom and gloom here is an opportunity for us all to create a positive atmosphere by erecting bunting, flags and signs and hopefully encouraging our players to claim a famous victory.”
