All Ireland Community Games Athletics Roll of Honour 1968-2020 All Ireland Community Games Athletics Roll of Honour 1968-2020 The idea of Community Games was born in October 1967 when a local sports organiser, Joseph Connolly, gathered interested parties together in Walkinstown Community Hall to discuss the running of sporting events for children in a number of areas in Dublin. While it was proposed to start with athletics, the concept quickly expanded to embrace soccer, gaelic games, swimming, basketball and chess so as to broaden participation by children, in particular by those who otherwise would not have had an opportunity for competitive sports. Father Martin Tierney, C.C., Walkinstown, became the inaugural Chairperson and Joseph Connolly, the inaugural Hon. Secretary, a post he would hold through 1992. A provisional committee issued questionnaires to local tenants’ and residents’ associations to garner interest. A meeting of representatives from twenty-four areas covering the city and county of Dublin took place in Moran’s Hotel at the end of March 1968 to form sub-committees and to draw up a programme. The competitions were divided into age groups under 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16 on 31 July, 1968. Independent Newspapers offered sponsorship for the events and the late Billy Morton put Santry Stadium (at that time named John F. Kennedy Stadium) at the disposal of the organising committee. The Dublin Community Games took place over a two-week period in August 1968 with the athletics finals at Santry on Sunday 25th August in which over 620 children competed. By 1969 the number of participating Dublin residents’ and tenants’ associations had increased to 47 with over 1,800 athletes competing at Santry over two days in heats and semi-finals and 300 competing in the finals of 26 events. Following the undoubted success of and experience gained from two Dublin Community Games, the executive committee looked further afield to examine the possibility of expanding Community Games into the provinces with a view to establishing national finals. Representatives of residents’ and tenants’ associations outside Dublin were approached with a view to setting up the Community Games system in their areas and counties. Members of the Dublin Committee attended a number of meetings around the country to offer help and advice. In 1970 teams from seven counties – Cork, Kilkenny, Limerick, Louth, Roscommon, Tipperary and Waterford – travelled to Dublin to compete in the inaugural National Community Games. The Irish Independent provided the Games with national coverage as co-sponsor with the National Dairy Council. In 1971 sixteen counties sent representative teams to Dublin. The National Dairy Council published booklets on how to organise a team for the Games. A special promotional film was produced by the NDC which was shown in community centres throughout the country. Thirty-one counties took part in the national finals in 1973 with over 2,000 qualifiers from an estimated 500,000 participants at community level. The Games expanded to include cultural activities such as art, model-making, debating, dance and choirs. By the year 2000 there were over 6,000 local branches involving over 20,000 volunteers. In 1973 the finals moved to Mosney, Co Meath, which would remain the venue for finals through 2008. The Community Games expanded to three days of competition in 1974 through 1978 and changed to two weekends of competition from 1979. Currently they take place in May, principally team sports and cultural activities, and in August with athletics, team sports and cultural activities. With the conversion of Mosney into a residential area for asylum seekers, the National Community Games moved to Athlone Institute of Technlogy from 2009 through 2016. In 2017 the National Community Games Festival took place at the National Sports Campus in Abbotstown, Co Dublin in May and August to mark the Golden Jubilee of the foundation of Community Games in Ireland. In 2018 the Games moved to their current venue, the University of Limerick. Athletes qualifiy for the National Finals through their parish, then county with only one athlete permitted per county.

    Weekend Sport Irish Examiner Saturday, 19.05.2018 6 THE BIG INTERVIEW THE JOHN FOGARTY INTERVIEW Twenty years ago, there were the three shadowy priests who, it was claimed, had knowledge of Colin Lynch’s suspension before the Munster Council had even met to decide his faith. In Liam Doyle, Seánie McMahon, and Anthony Daly, meanwhile, Clare had the three wise kings, forming one of hurling’s greatest half-back lines. Two decades on from the Banner’s last Munster SHC success and the All-Ireland title that got away, the trio recall that tumultuous summer of ’98, from Lynch’s ban to Jimmy Cooney’s bad time-keeping The one that got away from Banner brothers John Fogarty: Twenty years on, how ship. Did you feel unstoppable after win- anyway. We were a small bit hit and miss.

LD: After the first day against Water- after the first Waterford game that I wasn’t Forde).

The Road to Fame Or Failure? . 206 Chapter 1 The Demise S a teenager, Thomas Morgan, from inner-city Dublin, had Sir Alex Ferguson in his living room, A trying to persuade the 15-year-old midfielder to abandon his plans to join Blackburn Rovers. They were emerging as title rivals to Ferguson’s Manchester United and he was keen for Morgan to move to Old Trafford. Morgan chose Blackburn, signing for the Ewood Park side in 1994. A year later, Blackburn won their one and only Premier League title. But despite training with the league-winning squad, and making the bench for league and European matches, Morgan found himself released – and without a club – almost three years later. It was only weeks before captaining the Ireland Under-20s to a third-place finish in the 1997 World Championships in Malaysia. Put simply, Morgan fell by the wayside as Blackburn – and their Premier League rivals – regularly shunned the promotion of youth in favour of big-money signings. The 19 WHERE HAVE ALL THE IRISH GONE? birth of the Premier League in 1992 ushered in an era of stellar signings, compounded by the Bosman ruling in 1995, which removed obstacles to foreign players playing in England – a double whammy which would change the fortunes of Irish players for ever.

We benefit again from an exceptional welcome from the Casements of Port Chluain Eoghain on what is a special day for the club and ourselves as a county. Having hosted the club’s first ever national league fixture last week, which seen a healthy victory for our senior hurlers against Meath, we are delighted to return today for perhaps our most important match of the year against Limerick. Moving Day is a term sometimes used in American sports to describe the critical day in a league campaign, where games of determinative significance take place which will have a bearing on the final league places. Today is such a day for both of our senior teams. We welcome Limerick today who are unbeaten in the league and rightly sit at the top of the table, however we have targeted maximum return from our home fixtures so today is a must win. Victory today will place us one point behind Limerick, heading into the last two games, away to Wicklow on 15th March and finishing at home against Waterford a week later on 22nd March. Second place in the league will secure a place in the league final at Croke Park. Limerick also still have to play Wexford who have won their last 3 games since losing to us on day one, so it is all to play for.
