  • Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015
    Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015 In February 1916 Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA) circularised the principal schools in Ireland regarding the advisability of holding Schoolboys’ Championships. At the IAAA’s Annual General Meeting held on Monday 3rd April, 1916 in Wynne’s Hotel, Dublin, the Hon. Secretary, H.M. Finlay, referred to the falling off in the number of affiliated clubs due to the number of athletes serving in World War I and the need for efforts to keep the sport alive. Based on responses received from schools, the suggestion to hold Irish Schoolboys’ Championships in May was favourably considered by the AGM and the Race Committee of the IAAA was empowered to implement this project. Within a week a provisional programme for the inaugural athletics meeting to be held at Lansdowne Road on Saturday 20th May, 1916 had been published in newspapers, with 7 events and a relay for Senior and 4 events and a relay for Junior Boys. However, the championships were postponed "due to the rebellion" and were rescheduled to Saturday 23rd September, 1916, at Lansdowne Road. In order not to disappoint pupils who were eligible for the championships on the original date of the meeting, the Race Committee of the IAAA decided that “a bona fide schoolboy is one who has attended at least two classes daily at a recognised primary or secondary school for three months previous to 20 th May, except in case of sickness, and who was not attending any office or business”. The inaugural championships took place in ‘quite fine’ weather.

  • Collegians-Rugby-Football-Club
    COLLEGIANS RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB 1890— 1990 by PIERRE PAUL FRY Published by Collegians Rugby Football Club, Belfast, and printed by Nelson & Knox (N.I.) Ltd. BELFAST: 1989 it FOREWORD One does not proceed very far into the research on Collegians Rugby Football Club without realising the depth and the degree to which Collegians owes its survival and existence to the generosity and benevolence of Charles Seaver Neill. Collegians is synomonous with Charlie Neill. Appropriately, the present pavilion at Deramore Park is a tangible memorial to him. It was my privilege to have known him and to have played rugby at Collegians when he was very much the dominating personality. When you met him you saw either the obvious gentleman with old world charm and courtesy or a man with commanding presence, he was over six feet tall and straight in stature, forbidding, even autocratic, but whichever mood he was in you may be sure that underneath his exterior was a most sympathetic and understanding nature. In conversation when he was invariably extolling the virtues of Collegians, he spoke with a distinct, pulsating and passionate voice. Charlie Neill was the great Collegian. I wish to thank many people and sources from which I have had assistance in the compilation of this work. My first acknowledgement must be made to the Belfast Newsletter, the Belfast Telegraph, the Ireland's Saturday Night, the Northern Whig, the Linenhall Library and the Central Library for permission to use their files for reports and results of matches. My thanks are also due to the Methodist College, Belfast for access to its archives, mainly for the records of the early years.

  • Archaeological Assessment at Naas Town Hall, Main Street, Naas County Kildare
    ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT AT NAAS TOWN HALL, MAIN STREET, NAAS COUNTY KILDARE LICENCE NUMBER: 18E0515 FOR: KILDARE COUNTY COUNCIL I.T.M.: 689221/719481 LICENCEE: DAVE BAYLEY NOVEMBER 2018 Naas Town Hall, Main Street, Archaeological Testing Naas, Co. Kildare Licence Number: 18E0515 ABSTRACT Irish Archaeological Consultancy Ltd has prepared this report on behalf of Kildare County Council, to study the impact, if any, on the archaeological and historical resource of the proposed redevelopment of the Naas Town Hall, which is located on Main Street, Naas, Co. Kildare (ITM 689221/719481). The testing was undertaken by David Bayley and Muireann Ní Cheallacháin of IAC Ltd under licence 18E0515. The proposed development area is located in the townland of Naas West, parish of Naas, and barony of Naas North. The eastern boundary of the site is on the townland boundary with Naas East, Main Street North. The proposed development area is within the zone of potential for the historic town of Naas (RMP KD019-030). The proposed development area contains the site of a recorded monument, the site of White Castle (KD019-030018). The existing town hall, which was formerly a gaol, is also listed within the Record of Protected Structures for Kildare (RPS NS 19-047) and the NIAH building survey (NIAH 11814041). Four site investigation test pits were excavated in the rear yard during June 2018, which were archaeologically monitored. One test trench and one test pit were excavated within the rear yard in October 2018. The works confirmed the presence of an overburden layer within the yard area and identified the footing of a stone and mortar wall to the immediate west of the town hall structure.

E’ l’undicesima volta che gli azzurri partecipano a questa importante ed attesa manifestazione. L’Italia debutterà in trasferta sul campo dell’Irlanda, quarta forza del ranking iridato, alle spalle di Nuova Zelanda, Australia e Sudafrica, e vincitrice, autoritariamente, dell’ultima edizione. Si alza, dunque, con un esame probante il 2010, un anno in- tenso che vedrà il quindici di Nick Mallett impegnato, oltre che nel Sei Nazioni, nel tour estivo in Namibia e Sudafrica ed in tre test match autunnali con Argentina, Australia e Isole Figi. Una stagione, pertanto, ricca di appetitosi appuntamenti che dovrà, necessariamente, regalare sintomi e riscontri concreti sui costanti progressi che accompagnano il nostro movimento.
