It is mysinccre pleasure to welcome the four teams to the minor and senior county football finals in Cahir today_ Whereas the senior game is an all-south affair, in which Commercials and Moyle Rovers fight for honours, the minor final brings into opposition Newport, the cham pions of the north division and Goldcn-Kilfcaclc, the champions of the west. Tipperary football has a new bounce in its step as a result of significant successes during 1995. For a county starved of footballing glory, the victories of the senior team in the All·lreland 'S' championship and the minors in the Munster final were most welcome. These successes were tremendously important in themselves but they should also have the effect of increasing the county's belief in its footbaJling potentiaJ. \vith such self·belief greater success can be ach ieved as Clare proved in winning the All-Ireland senior hurling championship. This year we celebr.ue the centenary year of Tipperary's great achievement in winning the football and hurling All Irelands of 1895. In that year the famed Arravale Rovers Team, about whan Tom 0' Donoghue has wnttm so well in hisrcccntly launched history of the Arravalc Rovers club, won the first leg of the double when they beat Navan O'Mahony's. The hurling leg was won by glorious Tubbcradora. who were recently commemorated in an impressive monument in the parish of Boherlahan. Both these matches were played·in Jones's Road now Croke Parle:, on the same day and were \he first AII-Irelands to be played in that venue. Today, therefore, as we gather in eahir for the senior and minor county football finaJs, we can take pleasure in recalling the high achievements of Tipperary football in 1995 and the glorious memories of one hundnxl. years ago. Finally, I should like to thank the Cahirclub for hosting teday's games, the referees and match orficials whoare in charge and the Communications Committee for-the production of this program. I should like to thank all our supporters and wish them an afternoon of good football. seAN 0 F6GARTNGII. Cathaoirleach.
