THE EIRE OG Club in Greystones certainly had certainly had plenty to celebrate when they gathered for their annual dinner dance on Saturday night. Not since the old Greystones Club won a Junior double back in 1956 has the seaside town witnessed anything like this. The three championship cups on the top table – Minor A Football, Junior B Football and Junior hurling told their own story, or part of it. And their could be even more to come.
A great victory over Kilcoole during the week earns the club promotion and a chance to add the Timmins Cup to their collection.
Guest of honour was the Chairman of the County Coiste na nOg Damien Byrne and his wife Ann. County Chairman Andy O'Brien also managed to take time from a busy schedule to drop in and offer his congratulations
Damien Byrne opened his address by paying a special compliment to Felicity Keane who dealt with all juvenile fixtures in the Eire Og club, and the times we are in with so many codes out there looking for the same players its not a easy job to keep every one happy. The amount of work that is been done in Eire Og/Greystones club at juvenile level at both hurling and football for the past number of years is starting paying off.
As there is a lot of work being done in our county with juveniles at both football and hurling by our county coaches and one of them is your very own Colm Gaskin, who has been part of county management. Colm, I would like to thank you for all your work .
