Inishowen GAA clubs to star in DVD
12.07.11
GAA personality Jerome
Quinn will visit Inishowen next week to compile a
specially commissioned DVD on Gaelic Games in the
peninsula. The sports presenter will spend four days
visiting all seven clubs in the area while also
capturing some of the magnificent scenery of
Inishowen.
The former BBC presenter, who now runs his own media
company, was invited to the peninsula by the CLG
Bord Inis Eogahin.
The GAA in Inishowen has gone from strength to
strength over the last number of years with all
clubs extending and improving facilities on and off
the pitch. The local clubs now boast some of the
best facilities in the county if not Ulster. |

The cameras will visit
Muff on Wednesday evening to record their successful
underage structures, which have seen hurling
introduced recently. Then it will be on to Burt
where the focus will be on the dual club’s successes
in underage football and county hurling. He will
meet local management and players from the
victorious Lory Meagher Cup and Under 21 Shield
winning squads.
On Thursday it’s off to Straid and the Urris club
who have won a number of underage titles over the
past couple of years, and then on to Buncrana.
Depending on the result of the Ulster final between
Donegal and Derry, Ryan Bradley could be available
with the Anglo Celt Cup, as well as members of the
Buncrana U14 hurling team who had such a great year,
winning league and championship as well as a
successful run at the All Ireland Feile na nGael.
Friday will include a visit to the Carrick field in
Moville where ladies football and culture will be
the main focus of attention. Connolly Park in Malin
will follow and Carndonagh the next day.
"CLG Bord Inis Eoghain see this initiative as
another great step at promoting underage football in
the area and will be hoping for a good turnout of
parents and club members at the Go Games finals on
the Saturday morning in Carndonagh," said a
spokesperson. |
