  • Imreoir to Bainisteoir Exhibition Launched at the GAA Museum
    Imreoir to Bainisteoir exhibition Launched at the GAA museum The GAA Museum’s new exhibition celebrates individuals to have won All-Ireland titles as both a player and manager including six camogie recipients Few GAA players win All-Ireland medals and even fewer go on to repeat the feat as a team manager. A new exhibition at the GAA Museum celebrates this unique club of players. Imreoir to Bainisteoir features memorabilia, film footage and imagery from the 30 players who have achieved All-Ireland success both on the field and from the sidelines. There are 13 hurlers, 11 footballers and six camogie players who have claimed All-Ireland medals as a player and manager. The group includes legends such as Mick O’Dwyer, Kevin Heffernan, Brian Cody and Ann Downey. Imreoir to Bainisteoir recognises the amazing achievements of these players and gives fans the opportunity to remember some of the most exciting players and teams in the history of Gaelic Games. Speaking at today’s launch Uachtarán Chumann Lύthchleas Gael, Aogán Ó Fearghail said: “It is with great pride that I open this new exhibition and I hope GAA fans from Ireland and beyond will visit and celebrate these GAA Legends. All sporting codes need heroes and without doubt, the players honoured here are some of the greatest of all time. It will be interesting to see if a new name will be added to this unique group anytime soon!” Players showcased in the exhibition have achieved their double success in different ways. Mick O’Dwyer led Kerry to eight All-Ireland titles in 13 seasons and won four All-Irelands with the Kingdom as a player.

This year our Senior Championship was played on a new (or was it the old) system and it proved to be a great success, bringing great freshness and a renewed interest in hurling to the Division. We were treated to a number of very close enjoyable games, culminating in taday's unique final pairing of Burgess and Kildangan. Both of these team have come from Intermediate ranks as recently as 2004 and 2005 so a new Club name will be inscribed on to the Frank McGrath Cup in 2008. Kildangan's two previous successes were before the present Trophy came into being in 1962. With little form to go on, 1 look forward to a cracking, sporting game and I wish both learns the best 01 luck.

His list of honours is the stuff of dreams and few players have carried themselves with such grace and sportsmanship on and off the playing pitch. Pat was part of one of the greatest club teams of the modern era when The Rockies dominated Cork & Ireland in the 1970s and he was a key contributor to these famous victories. With Cork, Pat amassed an equally impressive haul of medals and individually he reached the pinnacle when awarded an All Star in 1976. Pat has worked tirelessly for his club since retirement from playing. Most recently, he was a mentor for the 2019 Intermediate County Champions, an honour cherished by the club and a huge achievement to win a county with the club's second team.
