*** It's that time of year again **** At 19:30 on Friday night (24th November) we are running the yearly YBIG Quiz fundraiser and YBIG Christmas Party in Slatterys. Same as last few years format, with a quiz / raffle / spot prizes and all that lark! All the money raised on the night will go towards YBIG's charity Aoibheann's Pink Tie. We already have a few grand raised from all the YBIG 12th man jerseys sales and YBIG hats and scarf combos to add to the quiz total. It would be great for all YBIG'ers to get involved and come along on the night as its all your very generous donations that is helping this very worthy cause.  More info to follow....... ** Like last time if lads have any prizes (no matter how big or small) they can donate towards the raffle it would all be very much appreciated. Let me know by PM Also if anyone wants to volunteer to help out on the night send me a PM. 19:30pm'ish KO, teams of four, 10'er per person. -------------
