Ed Forry photo The balls used in the Aer Lingus Fenway Hurling Classic at Fenway Park contained a microchip that can send information on distances and speeds travelled during the games. The innovation could lead to such balls, or sliotars, being used in mainstream hurling in the future with the technology providing a vast array of information. The sliotar used was bright yellow, and it contained a chip similar to that used in a contactless credit card. The sliotar was developed and manufactured by Green Fields Digital Sports Technology of Kilkenny. Two of the company’s officials, COO Tomas Mullins and CFO Rory Williams, were on hand in Boston for the matches. “The luminous yellow sliotar is expected to become standardized by the GAA,” the Irish Independent has reported. “The ball contains a readable chip in the core to facilitate pitch-side verification, confirming that the ball complies with standards.” Page 4 December 2018 BOSTON IRISH RePORTeR bostonirish.com Editor’s Notebook An IrIsh stAr In BOstOn On welcoming, the Irish American Partnership the Irish way By JoE lEary were sent to specific By Ed Forry spEcial to thE Bir schools and educa- “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses There are many fine Irish organizations in our local tional programs, 9 yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teem- area, and the Irish American Partnership (IAP) is one percent to commu- ing shore.

  • Wales-Ireland Travelogue 2009
    WALES AND IRELAND TRIP MAY 12 TO JUNE 4, 2009 What a coincidence! Meaningless, to be sure - but a coincidence, nonetheless. Our trip to the British Isles in 2009 began and ended one day earlier than our trip to Scotland, May 14 to June 5, 2001. (One can only hope that September of this year doesn't hold the same sort of unpleasant surprise that was visited upon us eight years ago.) OK, so I made a "small" error - we are departing two days earlier, not one. And, OK, so it wasn't much of a coincidence, was it? I mean, a real coincidence - one of excruciating consequence - occurred at the Polo Grounds in NYC on October 3, 1951 when Ralph Branca of the Blessed Brooklyn Dodgers was called in to pitch in the 9th inning and, by coincidence, Bobby Thomson of the Bestial New York Giants happened to come to bat, and, by coincidence, Mr. Branca happened to throw a pitch that the aforementioned Mr. Thomson happened to swing at, and, by coincidence, made contact with said pitch and drove it a miserable 309 feet into the first row of the left- field seats of the absurdly apportioned Polo Grounds, thus ending the Dodgers' season and causing a certain 12-year-old, watching on TV, in Brooklyn to burst into tears. Now that was a coincidence! But I digress. Tuesday, May 12 to Wednesday, May 13 Rather than leaving our car at the Seattle Airport Parking Garage (cost for three-plus weeks $468) or at an airport hotel (about $335) we decide to try the new Gig Harbor Taxi (at $95 each way, including tip).

  • Player Pathway Phases of a Camogie Player’S Development 1
    Camogie Player Pathway Phases of a camogie player’s development 1 A message from the Director of Camogie Development The Camogie Player Pathway describes the opportunities to play Camogie from beginner to elite level. It is designed to give every person entering the game the chance to reach their personal potential within the sport. The pathway is divided into six stages: n Phase 1 – Get a grip 6-8 yrs approx n Phase 2 – Clash of the ash 9-11 yrs approx n Phase 3 – Get hooked 12-14 yrs approx n Phase 4 – Solo to success 15-17 yrs approx n Phase 5 – Strike for glory 17+ yrs approx n Retainment – Shifting the goalposts There are opportunities for everyone to play camogie, irrespective of age, ability, race, culture or background. The Camogie Association has adopted a logical approach to player development, so that every child and adult can reach their potential and enjoy Camogie throughout their lifetime. There are six progressive steps in a Camogie Player Pathway. Individuals will spend varying amounts of time mastering the relevant skills and attaining the requisite fitness levels. All participants should reach their potential in the stage that matches their age and aspirations. 2 For the most talented players, the player pathway ensures that they are given the very best opportunities and support to reach their full potential. Dr Istvan Baly’s Long-term Athlete Development model (LTAD) focuses on best practice in the development of players at every level. Camogie uses LTAD to develop the skills, coaches and competitions that are appropriate at each age and stage of player development.

In writing this thesis, I hope that I have, in some way, managed to explain the reasons for this cultural diversity. This thesis would not have been written without the assistance of my two supervisors, Professor Mike Cronin and Professor Matthew Taylor. Professor Cronin’s assistance and knowledge has transformed the way I think about history, society and sport while Professor Taylor’s expertise has also made me look at the writing of sports history and the development of society in a different way.
