The season is finally up and running and all teams are back training. The energy in the club right now is phenomenal and we are very excited for the season ahead. There are some important updates/requests which I have listed below:
Club Lotto:
The Clubs most important fundraiser is our Club Lotto draw and we ask that each family subscribe to this Lotto for as little as €2 per week. The funds raised through our Lotto are put back into the club in terms of Player Development Initiatives (some news on this coming here shortly) and a portion goes to our exciting new venture into the Ladies National League this year.
How It Works?
- The Jackpot is currently at €3,600 and rises by €50 each work when not won.
- There are also 2 x €25 Lucky Dip prizes and we have given away €2,750 in prizes since the draw started last October.
- The draw is carried out each week and the results are sent via ClubZap and a recording of the draw is posted on Instagram.
You can sign up for our most popular option HERE which is €10 for 5 draws, payable automatically every 5 weeks from your nominated card.
Vacant Roles:
We are urgently seeking volunteers for some important roles within the club as listed below. Please contact me via WhatsApp if you are interested in any of these important roles and I can give you more information:
- PRO Junior Club
- PRO National League Ladies
- Club Shop (ordering and distributing our next Club Shop Order)
National League & Game Sponsors:
We are so excited for the upcoming Basketball Ireland National Development League this year where our Ladies Team will compete out of our Home Venue, The Watershed. We are proud to announce our main team sponsor for the next 3 seasons will be CluneTech. and our team name in this league will be "CluneTech Kilkenny Stars"
Important Dates:
- Sat 5th October @ 7pm: "Season Launch" with Challenge Match vs Tipperary Knights

- Sat 7th December @ 7pm: CluneTech Kilkenny Stars vs Tullamore

The National League is a costly venture and we are seeking sponsors to help cover the cost of our Home Games - if you own or work for a business that you think might be interested in joining our list of Partners please reach out and email kilkennystars@gmail.com and we can send you some information.
Thanks in advance and looking forward to a great season.
