There was a large turnout at the launch

BALLINAGAR GAA Club officially launched a new mobile app in the local Tom and Gerry's Bar on Sunday evening.

A large crowd of members and locals turned up for the official launch. The app can be downloaded via the usual platforms and from the Ballinagar GAA social media places.

A highlight of the evening was a special presentation to one of Ballinagar's best known and most cherished members. Mick Dunne was the goalkeeper and captain when Ballinagar had their first adult championship win when capturing the Junior Football Championship in 1988 and he was presented with a specially framed picture montage commemorating that memorable year.
