Club Lavey
The objective of Club Lavey is to support and develop Gaelic Games in our local area. Since the formation of our club over 80 years ago, our club members have generously committed their time and energy to provide these sporting facilities for our community. In more recent times we are pleased to say that these facilities are equally as important to, and have always been available for school, community and parish events.
Entering 2008, Club Lavey in Association with Termoneeny Community Group are about to take on our most ambitious project to date. A new state of the art training facility will be built at Gulladuff which will incorporate a third generation synthetic playing surface, conditioning suites, multi-purpose rooms for music, dance and drama, changing areas and ice baths all of which will be linked to our existing complex. Our goal is to provide a better lifestyle for present and future generations of our community and we need your support to do this.
