Sporting West Final & a Celebration at the ROYAL afterwards FOOO OR INK AND ATMOSPHERE CALL TO THE ROYAL PLEASING PEOPLE IS OUR BUSINESS Telephone: 51204 GALTEE RVS./ ST. PECAUNS lBB5 - 19B5 by David Moloney A hundred years is a very special occasion in any walk of life and so this year marks, for us, a century of affiliation to the Gaelic Athletic Association. although Gaelic games were played in the parish way before the G.A.A. was formed. In the year of its affiliation in 1885. the club adopted the now familiar red and white colours instead of the old green jersey with a red sash . Our first appearance in the County championship was in 1889. when the club affiliated a Senior Football team in the South Championship, but we had to wait until 1912 for our first Divisional title when led by the great Jack Kennedy we beat Mullinahone 2-2 to 1-3 in a controversial game. Mullinahone had been nomtnated by the South Board to contest the County Championship and duly won, Bansha went on to beat Mul1inahone in the South final and Bansha objected to the Munster Council having beaten the County champions, but lost the appeal. John Cullinane of Bansha was a very prominent official in the early days of the G.A.A. He was a member of the first Central Council and was part of the famous American invasion of 1888. In that year also he had the honour of refereeing the first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship between Limerick and Louth, played at Dublin. So began the fine tradition of top flight referees from the parish. This tradition has been kept prominent in recent times by John Moloney, who has proved without doubt to be one of the best referees in modern times and has received every honour in the game. Todays Senior final referee, Paddy Lonergan, is just beginning his Inter-County career and has the ability to go to the very top. Hurling came into prominence in the parish in the early twenties, when a team from Kilmoyler, captained by Ned Crowley, won the South Seniortitle of 1923, and were unlucky in the County final to be beaten bya North selection. The lone surviving member of that great team is Bill Tierney of Cappa. The golden era of the club began in 1949 and lasted 'till 1954, winning two COUnlY Senior Football t.tles in 1949 and 1950 and six consecutive West titles between those years. This was the era of Larry Maher, Larry Quinnand Jim O'Connor and it was the success of this great team that fashioned the club into a football stronghold. We had to wait until the mid seventies for a return to prowess, but between 1976 and 1981 the club played in six consecutive County finals winning three in '76, '80 and '81 . The secrel of our present success lies in the attention paid to our Juveniles from the mid-sixties onwards when many good under age teams were kept together under the guidance of John Moloney. Today the Juvenile Committee are as active as ever and hold parish leagues on a regular basis. So as we enter our second Century the immediate challenge facing the club is the replacing of the present Community Centre with new dressing rooms and a function room. Twenty thousand pounds has already been collected by a very active Development Committee under the guidance of Seamus Grogan, work is expected to begin on the new building by the end of September. 5 Ml.
