Fethard Ladies Football Club's Christmas draw to benefit Dillon Quirke Foundation

Fethard Ladies Football Club will donate half the pot from its Christmas Charity Split the Pot draw to the Dillon Quirke Foundation. 

Half the Pot will go to the Dillon Quirke Foundation, the other half will be won on the night.

The Club guarantees €2,500 for the first envelope out of the bucket, followed by four additional draws, one for €200 and three for €100.  

The draw takes place in Burke's Bar, Fethard on Sunday, December 15 at 9.30pm. 

"We cannot express how much the Dillon Quirke Foundation means to clubs up and down the country," said the Club.

The Foundation is a registered charity working to raise awareness of SADS (Sudden Adult Death Syndrome), and funds widespread cardiac screening for young people aged 12-18 and involved in sport.

Its aim is to raise awareness and reduce the number of young people dying from SADS through a cardiac screening programme.

The Foundation’s hope for Dillon’s legacy is that every young sports athlete, male and female in Ireland, will have mandatory screening for their heart.

Tickets can be purchased in local Fethard shops or online at €2 each or three for €5, other online options also available. Best of luck everyone and please support this worthy cause.
