Tickets are now on sale at Killarney Outlet Centre for this year’s FAI National Club Draw which helps support local football clubs with their ongoing fundraising efforts.

There are four brand new design Ford Fiestas to be won (an example of which is on display in the Killarney Outlet Centre) kindly provided by Killarney Autos, Ford Irelands main dealership in Killarney.

Sales from the tickets go to help in the running the underage and Football for All programmes at Killarney Celtic, said Mike Lyne, Director of Football.

"We are very grateful to Killarney Autos and Killarney Outlet Centre for their assistance in helping us promote the draw. Whilst the four Ford Fiestas are the number one prize there are also a multitude of alternative prizes including tickets to this year’s Champions League final, a Premier League weekend at Old Trafford and a whole year’s electricity costs amongst hundreds of other fabulous prizes,” he said.

Mike added that club officials have set up a sales desk in the Killarney Outlet Centre and are selling tickets from now until the end of October.

The draw takes place on November 21 and individual tickets cost just

€10. You will be entered into the draw with the fantastic opportunity of winning one of four new style Ford Fiestas amongst a host of other fantastic prizes.

Killarney Celtic are one of the most progressive football clubs in Kerry with over 600 playing members and an award-winning Football for All group. The club’s senior team have just completed a rare double, winning both the league and Greyhound Bar KO Cup finals and they also went very close to being Munster Junior Cup finalists this year. As with all clubs, Killarney Celtic relies heavily on fundraising to support its activities so by investing in the FAI National Draw you will be investing in the future of Killarney Celtic and your local community.

At the launch in The Killarney Outlet Centre was Dermot Moriarty of Killarney Autos who have kindly allowed their new Ford Fiesta to be on show as part of the fundraising effort. Should you not be lucky enough to win one of the cars in the draw and are interested in the New Ford Fiesta, contact Dermot at Killarney Autos on 064 66 31355 and he will be delighted to arrange a test drive and discuss purchase options.

Tickets for the FAI National Club Draw go on sale today and are available from Killarney Outlet Centre and club members.
