Great news for Raheens! 🎉 The Juvenile pitch now has brand new, energy-efficient, full match-standard floodlights, and they look fantastic.
Over the last few months, work has been carried out to replace the old low-light training lights, and the difference is night and day. The feedback from those who have already used them is amazing.
Our old lights served us well on many a winter evening, but they were never bright enough for matches or intense training. Now:
✅ We can host matches under lights on the Juvenile pitch ✅ Training will be brighter and safer through the winter and spring ✅ The new system is energy efficient, which will keep running costs down for years to come
From our youngest juveniles to our adult panels, every team in the club will benefit, especially in the long dark months when evening training and fixtures are hardest to fit in.
Thank you all who supported the Raheens Social Race Night which helped in the funding for this project.
Take a bow, volunteers 👏
Projects like this don't happen by accident. Our Facilities Team and Executive Team put in a huge amount of work to plan the project, organise it and get it over the line. On behalf of every player, coach, parent and supporter: thank you!
Thank you to our local businesses 🤝
A big thank you also to the local businesses who helped make this possible: Donnelly Civil Engineering, GMac Electrical, Reimal Construction and Taaffe Sand and Gravel. Your generosity means a great deal to our club and community.
See you under the lights! Come down some evening and see the difference for yourself.
