Let $p>3$ be a prime. We show that $$T_{p-1}=(p/3)3^{p-1} (mod p^2},$$ where the central trinomial coefficient $T_n$ is the constant term in the expansion of $(1+x+x^{-1})^n$. We also prove three congruences conjectured by Sun one of which is as follows: $$\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\binom{p-1}{k}\binom{2k}{k}((-1)^k-(-3)^{-k})=(p/3)(3^{p-1}-1) (mod p^3).$$
