Celtic Games International Caps 1976
Irish International Cap winners Roll of Honour CELTIC INTERNATIONAL GAMES 1976 – 2018 The annual Celtic Games contested now by Under 16 and Under 18 teams from Ireland, Scotland and Wales have undergone significant changes from the first event held in Aberdeen on the 14th August 1976. The first Junior International between the North of Ireland and Scotland took place in 1969 at Ormeau Park in Belfast and this link continued for several years. In 1975 a team from the North of Ireland travelled the long coach journey to Haverford West in South West Wales. Following this match discussions took place between Maeve Kyle and Barbara Elgie of Wales and with the support of Scotland a proposal was made to the British Athletics Board (BAAB) to hold a Celtic Match the following year. The BAAB agreed and the North of Ireland WAAA were asked to invite Bord Lúthchleas Ógánach na hÉireann to take part. Scotland agreed to host the first event with subsequent meetings to follow a four year cycle of Scotland, Wales, Ireland and the North of Ireland. The first meeting in Ireland taking place at the UCD Grounds at Belfield on August 6th 1978. For the first 16 years the competition comprised of girls only teams in the Under 13, Under 15 and Under 17 age groups. The first winner in Aberdeen was Jacqueline Gibbons in the 60 metres Hurdles representing the North of reland. Jackie subsequently became a teacher in Thornhill College in Derry a school which produced many athletics champions. That same day saw the international debut of many future outstanding athletes some of whom went on to compete at the highest level of the Commonwealth and Olympic Games. -

Tipp Convention 2015 Layout 1
14 THE ANNUAL CONVENTION OF CUMANN LÚTHCHLEAS GAEL, COISTE CHONTAE THIOBRAID ÁRANN 2015 Tuarascáil an Rúnaí 2015 (Tipperary Co Secretary’s Annual Report) eidh cuimhne ar 2015 toisc gur shroicheamar trí chinn de cluichí ceannais na hÉireann. Cé nach raibh bua againn in aon ceann acu, is féidir linn a bheith deimhneach agus bródúil go rabhamar páirteach insan méid sin de laetha móra CLG. BD’fhág Éamon Ó’Sé slán tar éis páirt a ghlacadh sna cluichí ceannais sa sraith agus sa chraobh, ach ar a laghad, bhí sé de shólás aige Craobh na Mumhan a bhuachaint, an t-aon trófaí i rith a réime bhainistíochta. Leanann an dul chun chinn sa pheil agus chuir Na Tráchtálaí marc airde nua síos leis an éacht a rinne siad i Mí na Samhna ag tabhairt an chéad Craobh Peile Chúige ar ais don chontae. It is a privilege to present my ninth report to Tipperary County Convention. 2015 was so full of promise being so near and yet so far away and could have easily turned out a great year. After a bad start losing the Waterford Crystal and League first round our Senior Hurlers had four very impressive League wins on the trot to qualify for the League play-offs. A most disappointing one point loss to Waterford in the League Semi was put aside as we overcame our bogey team Limerick in the Munster Championship with a sixteen point victory in their own Gaelic Grounds. This was followed up with a Munster Final win over Waterford and momentum was building towards an All Ireland Final. -

For Jared, it was another fantastic top-eight finish and it was in the lesser of his two Olympic events. With the Olympic 50km event this week, Jared upped the ante even further, taking his second successive Olympic 50km silver medal and recording a 2+ minute PB time of 3:36:53, also breaking the Olympic record into the bargain. What a performance! Walker of the Week! 50KM MEN'S RACEWALK, OLYMPIC GAMES, THE MALL, LONDON, SATURDAY 11 AUGUST 2012 The men's Olympic 50km walk started at 9AM at the Mall in London and I was one of the many spectators who lined the 2km loop to cheer on the contestants. My report on the Men's 50km Race Walk is taken from that of Dave Martin for the IAAF (see http://www.iaaf.org/Mini/OLY12/News/NewsDetail.aspx?id=67421) Sergey Kirdyapkin, the man to be beaten having won the IAAF World Race Walking Cup in Saransk in May, shattered the existing record of 3:37:09 with a decisive victory. -
