  • GAA Club – Overview
    CIT Student GAA Club – Overview Camogie – Gaelic Football – Hurling – Ladies Gaelic Football - Handball As befits a County with Cork’s tradition in Gaelic Games, GAA has occupied a central role in the development of sport in the Cork Institute of Technology. The Cork Regional Technical College, as it was formally known until its change of title in 1997 to Cork Institute of Technology, first occupied its Bishopstown campus in September 1974. The new college buildings were officially opened by that great Cork GAA exponent and Taoiseach of the day, Mr. Jack Lynch, in December 1977. A student GAA football team was formed in 1975 and the hurling team commenced playing activities in 1976. In the same way the campus has evolved and expanded so too has the GAA Club which as well as being the oldest sporting club at the Institute, with over 400 active members is also the biggest.

  • ADRIAN RUSSELL Journey, with Extensive Interviews from Those at the Centre of This Piece of Sporting History
    ‘The greatest achievement in GAA history finally gets its due:The Double is a singular triumph.’ Michael Moynihan ‘One of the greatest Irish sporting stories finally gets the brilliant book it deserves.’ Dave Hannigan A county winning both the All-Ireland Senior Football and Hurling Championships in the same year. It was unheard of in modern Gaelic games. Many considered it impossible. Yet, in 1990, Cork achieved just that. The Double: How Cork Made GAA History details this remarkable ADRIAN RUSSELL journey, with extensive interviews from those at the centre of this piece of sporting history. Billy Morgan and Larry Tompkins, among others, recount the footballers’ efforts to keep Kerry down in Munster, as well as their run-ins with bitter rivals Meath. Key members of the hurling panel like Tomás Mulcahy, Mark Foley and coach Gerald McCarthy remember the hurlers’ tumultuous road to success, from their shock 1989 defeat to lowly Waterford up to the classic ‘donkeys don’t win derbies’ Munster final against Tipperary in 1990 and beyond. Full of insight into these remarkable teams, as well as powerful and often humorous anecdotes, The Double captures an unparalleled year of success for Cork GAA. www.mercierpress.ie MERCIER SPORT 1 THE DOUBLE HOW CORK MADE GAA HISTORY ADRIaN RUSSELL PROLOGUE Midway through the second half of the All-Ireland hurling final of 1990, Croke Park took a breath and time slowed down. With Galway already four points ahead of an unfancied Cork side, and Galway’s Martin Naughton barrelling through on goal, a green flag would surely signal the end of the contest.
