  • 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.

  • Be a Guid Sport!
    BE A GUID SPORT! TEACHERs BOOK Be A Guid Sport! This workbook “Be a Guid Sport” covers a range of sporting and leisure activities associated with Scotland and Ulster which could be used either by P.E. teachers or by teachers of other subjects as an extension to work on some of the other Ulster-Scots booklets. The Pupil Booklet includes research tasks, classroom-based work and also some physical activities. The Pupil Booklet is divided into 5 sections: Team Games; Highland Games; Street Games; Winter Sports and Golf. “Be a Guid Sport” is a companion to the “Birlin roon tha Flair” booklet on Scottish Country Dance. In this Teachers Book some additional information is provided along with answer sheets and also assessment grids. Some of the activities will enable P.E. teachers to address aspects of Communication and I.T. and to contribute to pupil assessment of these skills. Shinty The purpose of this section is to introduce the game of shinty and to encourage pupils to see its links with hurling. The stretch of sea between Northeast Ireland and Southeast Scotland might seem like a barrier to us today. In ancient times, however, when roads did not exist and journeys across land were hard and dangerous, the short sea crossing was a much easier way to travel. As a consequence people have been moving backwards and forwards be- tween these two areas for as long as we have knowledge. Settlers from Ireland brought the sport of hurling to Scotland over 2000 years ago. Shinty appears in the legend—the Ulster Cycle— of the Celtic hero Cúchulainn but it has become associated with Scotland while Ireland is associated with hurling.

Two teams have the chance to raise the spirits to high heavens In their respective parishes today. One, 01 necessity must lose out and hopelully theirs wilt be another day.

A sporting and exciting final is envisaged with the pairing of Clonoulty Rossmore and Knockavilla Kickhams. Since 1992 either of these clubs have contested the West final but we must go back to 1954 for the last occasion on which they played against each other. It is most unusual to find two teams who have been so prominent at divisional and Co. level having to wait 48 years 10 meel in a West final. The curtain raiser to-day promises to be lively and entertaining with the pairing of AherlowlEmly and Knockavilla Kickhams. Both leams have come through a vigorous campaign to reach the final and should be well up for the game.

  • Annerville Awards to the 2008 Tipperary Sports Stars
    Tiobraid Árann Abú - United Sports Panel 1959-2009 in conjunction with Bulmers Ltd Golden Jubilee Presentation of the Annerville Awards to the 2008 Tipperary Sports Stars 1 in Hotel Minella, Clonmel on Saturday, 31st January, 2009 United Sports Panel 2009: Back Row (left to right) Eamonn Wynne, Johnny O’Loughlin, Dave Hallinan, Seamus McCarthy, David Clancy, Liam Ó Donnchú; Front Row (left to right) Jimmy Cooney, Seamus King, James Holohan, Ken Conway, Richie Blanche. 2 Foreword When a number of sports enthusiasts got together in 1959, little did they realise that they were starting something that would stand the test of time and be still a force 50 years later. Led by Sean Barlow and the late Sean Lyons the United Sports Panel was formed. They felt the time was right to have an Award Scheme in the county to honour amateur sports stars in their chosen sports annually. In fact, one should note that these were the first such awards in the country.
