LOTTO LUCK: Batty O’Sullivan (centre, right) receives his €16,000 cheque from Killarney Celtic FC Lotto Committee Chairman, Der Lyne with, from left, committee members John C Counihan, Packie O’Connor, Paul Sherry, (Chairman), and Tim Jones (Vice Chairman).

 

Batty ‘Skips’ O’Sullivan was thrilled when he became Killarney Celtic FC's biggest ever lotto prizewinner with a super €16,000 jackpot.

From Knocknaskeha in Spa, Batty invests in an annual ticket every year to support the reigning league and cup double champions - and his loyalty paid off when his lucky numbers were plucked from the draw drum.

Batty, who operates a busy skip hire company, had chosen the numbers 2, 6, 9 and 23 and it landed him the record jackpot prize.

“We’re absolutely thrilled for Batty as he is a great supporter of Celtic," Killarney Celtic FC Chairman, Paul Sherry, said.

“The lotto is our only source of fundraising and Batty is always there to support us and to help us out with anything we need. This win genuinely couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy."

The Celtic lotto jackpot is now at €5,200.

HeartBeat Kil

larney will focus on the vital role of sleep in cardiac and mental health at its next community meeting on February 24.
The event, held at the Parish Centre on Park Road, features guest speaker Dr Anna O’Sullivan, a Senior Clinical Psychologist with the HSE.
Following her previous popular sessions with the group, Dr O’Sullivan will return to provide a deep dive into the neuroscience of sleep.
The talk will explore why rest is a cornerstone of physical and mental well-being and how sleep requirements shift throughout various life stages, from childhood and the teenage years to parenthood, perimenopause, and older adulthood.
Attendees can expect practical advice on managing common sleep difficulties and strategies for improving sleep quality. Dr O’Sullivan will also outline simple self-care actions that can maintain or enhance long-term sleeping habits, as well as the long-term impacts of insufficient rest.
The meeting begins at 8:00 pm at the Parish Centre and is open to all members of the community. A question-and-answer session will follow the presentation, and the evening will conclude with light refreshments and an opportunity for attendees to chat.
