Oulart-The Ballagh G.A.A. will officially open their second pitch on Sunday 8th May at 6pm. The field that was purchased in the early nineties as an under-age pitch was added to later on to become a full-sized pitch that now has state-of-the-art floodlighting, modern dressing- rooms, hurling- wall, walking- track and extensive car-parking facilities, all of which benefit the local community as well as serving the needs of the G.A.A. and Camogie club.
Two of the club’s great former players and present-day mentors, Michael Jacob and Brendan O’Connor, will perform the opening ceremony.
Following the formalities, the Wexford Senior Hurlers will play a challenge match against Offaly in what will be a serious part of both teams’ preparation for the forthcoming Leinster championship
