In extending a welcome to everyone attending our Mid Tipperary hurling finals in Littleton it is only right to congratulate all the teams playing in games tooday on their achievements in reaching this stage of the competitions and to extend to the county qualifiers our best wishes for county honours. Also wishing the referees and their officials trouble free and sporting matches, In the U/21 final we have Drom-Inch and 8oherlahan-Dualla, both clubs have been fairly successful at under age level in recent years and we can look forward to a keenly contested game. In the senior final we have Holycross-Ballycahill. steeped in hurling tradition and Lou\tlmore-Castleiney more renowned for their football ability. Holycross ~re defending champions and are most peoples fancy to win the title for the second time in a row, having defeated Drom-Inch and Moycarkey-8orris on their way to the final. Loughmore-CastJeiney on the other hand lost their first round match to Thodes ~rsfields but in the loser's group defeated Drom-Irteh and Boherlahan and in the semi-final defeated Moyne-Templetuohy. They will be hoping to capture their second title to-day. With the present low standard of hurling in the county it is up to the teams remaining in the race for county honours to raise the standard of play and the morale of our supporters. I am confident that to-day's final will be a good start in that regard. I know than the Moycarkey-Borris club will have everything in top class shape for to-day's finals.

Jimmy Fogarty Programme editor. - MEMORIES OF LITTLETON Littleton, 85 we first knew it was just 8 plain ordinary field the sort of think the rural clubs availed of; rented father than owned; fenced with stakes and barbed wire; chosen for central parish location more than for being more level In terrain than a hundred other fields around it. Some sideline seating was provided for the bigger matches but mostely people stood behind the wire. Good weather was a bonus - and it wasn't always good, My own first attempt to see a game in littleton got no further than the cross of Pautdine, where II few of us were deposited for shelter in the shed behind Shine's shop. where the Moycarkey Band used to practice - the adults cycled 00 to the game. That, I think, was a Sarsfields V. Bohllrlahan one of the early 40's when hurling was quite intense, and hardy too As youngSlers we did most of our hurling in townsland, local fields with stones for goaloposts but eventually qraduated to the main pdrish practice centre, I can clearly recall the atmosphere and the iay-oYt - the rou~ and unpredictably worn "Square" off which the boonee of the ball Win hard to judge; the bushes behind the goal, into which a ball could disappear and take some finding, the sunken ground nearer to the road, where the cars are parked today - it was a WIlderness, repository of all sorts of rubbish, often partely flooded. The late 20's, apparently, saw the field take over from Ballyerk as the established training and playing venue, though for a few years It was replac.d by a field at the Jockey. The return to James F. Meagher's premises - he lives now in Dublin­ meant the the fine champion MOtp'C8rkey-Borris teams of the 3D', trained there, and It has ever sinee been the parish's hurling headquarters and venue for quite a few important club games - I recall seeing Slrsfields play Moyne-Templetouhy there in the mid--40's, the Thurles team led by John Maher and Moyne by Jimmy Travers. A later game of some not was in the mid-50's, when Sarsfields' powerful team go a great run from the home side in which the then minors Pat and Donal Ryan took a leading part. In earlier times there was one notably rugged affair between Sarsfields and Bohertahan, with which the names of Lanigan and Leahy were associated. Sports meetings of the N.A.C.A. were another Littleton feature­ the youngJonn Joe Barry won titles here, not far from his own Ballineurry. The modern story began in the late SO's when the field was finally bougnt. Th, vendOf then was Joe Murphy, successor in ownership to Jimmy Meagher. PossessIon was a proud feeling for the club, but entailed debt to be repaid; the Killenaule A.I.B. manager, Tom Ryan, had been the man to show confidence in our capacity. Prime source of revenue was the series of successful Sales of Work. timed for the pra..christmltS spending period and responded to by eager collectors and willing donon, with the late Rodge Ca!lanan 8 vital influence on the big day itself. Vesting in the G.A.A. was the next step - it put the club in line fOf the v.rious granu towards purchase and development.

  • History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary
    History of Borrisokane ,Co.Tipperary. ‘Introduction’ What better way to begin an account of a Tipperary town than by referring to the following words of a poem called ‘Tipperary‘.In these lines, the poet ‘ Eva of the Nation‘ who was one of the Kellys of Killeen, Portumna,wrote: ‘O come for a while among us,and give us a friendly hand, And you‘ll see that old Tipperary is a loving and gladsome land; From Upper to Lower Ormond bright welcome and smiles will spring, On the plains of Tipperary,the stranger is like a king?‘ Yes, I think the words ring true,I`m sure, for us and about us,natives of this part of Irish soil?? It is about one particular spot ‘on the plains of Tipperary‘ that I wish to write, namely my home parish of Borrisokane?? . So I turn again to verse, which so often suggests things that mere prose cannot? In a book of poetry, ‘The Spirit of Tipperary‘ published many years ago by the Nenagh Guardian,we find a poem by Dermot F ?Gleeson who for many years was District Justice in Nenagh.He wrote under the pen-name ‘Mac Liag‘ . He writes as if from the top of Lisgorrif Hill looking down on the broad expanse of the two Ormonds with Lough Derg bordering them to the left? .The poem is simply called, ‘The place where I was born’ ‘O’er hill and mountain, vale and town, My gaze now wanders up and down, Anon my heart is filled with pride, Anon with memory’s gentler tide ‘ Of sorrow, until through them all The twilight whispers softly call From upland green and golden corn “It is the place where you were born”.

Welcome. Thanks to your Committee of ten people involved in TidyTowns activities in Inch Bouladuff Ragg. You are all obviously dedicated community people who take the time and effort to attend your monthly meetings in addition to other TidyTowns activities. Your Committee is doing so very worthwhile work for Inch Bouladuff Ragg, a village with a population of less than 200 people. Thanks also for Village Street map, an absolute necessity for such a spread out area. Well done on the ongoing contact with the national school and well done to the school on their involvement in recycling and the Green Flag award. The work of local people, residents, business people, schoolchildren and others is to be praised. Well done on your energy and commitment. From your entry I expected to hear a little more on your partner organisations. A recommendation of this adjudicator is the preparation of a very brief three-year TidyTowns plan for Inch Bouladuff Ragg which would help your Committee highlight the issues and agree on the targets and objectives to be achieved up to say 2011.

  • Tipperary News Part 6
    Clonmel Advertiser. 20-4-1822 We regret having to mention a cruel and barbarous murder, attended with circumstances of great audacity, that has taken place on the borders of Tipperary and Kilkenny. A farmer of the name of Morris, at Killemry, near Nine-Mile-House, having become obnoxious to the public disturbers, received a threatening notice some short time back, he having lately come to reside there. On Wednesday night last a cow of his was driven into the bog, where she perished; on Thursday morning he sent two servants, a male and female, to the bog, the male servant to skin the cow and the female to assist him; but while the woman went for a pail of water, three ruffians came, and each of them discharged their arms at him, and lodged several balls and slugs in his body, and then went off. This occurred about midday. No one dared to interfere, either for the prevention of this crime, or to follow in pursuit of the murderers. The sufferer was quite a youth, and had committed no offence, even against the banditti, but that of doing his master’s business. Clonmel Advertiser 24-8-1835 Last Saturday, being the fair day at Carrick-on-Suir, and also a holiday in the Roman Catholic Church, an immense assemblage of the peasantry poured into the town at an early hour from all directions of the surrounding country. The show of cattle was was by no means inferior-but the only disposable commodity , for which a brisk demand appeared evidently conspicuous, was for Feehans brown stout.

    SShheeeeddyy’’ss MMeenn MMuunnsstteerr’’ss KKiinnggss Part one Issue 11 July 13th 2009 photo; SPORTSFILE EDITORIAL COMMENT Issue 11 July 13th 2009 p 2 Hello Hurling Fans, With the Munster Final, the 2 qualifiers, the Christy Ring, Nicky Rackard and Lory Meagher Cup Finals along with a special interview with one of the greatest living legends of the game Micky ‘The Rattler’ Byrne we are diving this week’s issue into 2 PDF’s. In that way we can keep the resolution of the photos high and the size of both sections will be less than one megabyte. Part one is the magazine section and part two is the weekend roundup. The three Cup Finals in Croke Park provided some fine hurling but the crowd was just under 4,000 so it is probably back to the drawing board for those finals. Each needs to be played as a curtain raiser to a game from the Liam McCarthy Championship to create the right atmosphere. The Munster Final had patches of fine hurling and some fine individual displays but lacked the intensity of former classics. Both teams Tipperary and Waterford are continu - ing to make progress. Tipperary still look the best challenger to the champions but Wa - terford battled with heart and could yet make a final four berth. Best wishes ‘til next week from Hurling World. FEATURE Mickey ‘The Rattler’Byrne Issue 11 July 13th 2009 p 3 Rattle ‘em Mickey! Mickey ‘The Rattler’ Byrne from Thurles Sarsfields, held down the right fullback position for Tipperary for 12 championship seasons between 1949 and 1960 and was a substitute on the All-Ireland winning team of 1945.
