*Our club were represented at the Down County Dinner which was a superb evening of dining and nostalgia. Those players and back room team involved with the Down 1968 All Ireland winning team were rightfully feted and it was great to see three of the great players there from the Kerry side they defeated in that memorable final in Croke Park. Very well done to all the Down football and hurling championship award winners on the night and to one of the all time greats, the legendary Down forward Sean O’Neill, on his induction to the Down GAA Hall Of Fame.
