The 12th different club to achieve this distinction, Ballingarry proudly showcased their excellent facilities to an FAI Delegation - led by CEO John Delaney - as well as Joan Croke (LDLL), John Roche (Referees Society), Joe Hogan (LDFL) and Charlie Boyle (LDS/GL).

The tremendous work completed by the club was clear to see as best practice in the governance, management and administration of a football club was fully implemented.

Being awarded the FAI Club Mark is recognition of the hard work put in by numerous volunteers, although the trio of Shane Markham, Mickey McNamara and Jason Quinn deserve special mention.

The Limerick Desmond area can be proud to have such a progressive club, run by a welcoming committee, to serve its community.
