“I was asked to do an illustration in the Hodges Figgis Dawson Street window for the launch of my new book Fintan’s Fifteen [unveiled at MCM Comic whatsit], the story of the worst U12s hurling team in Ireland (tagline: You’ll laugh, you’ll cry …you’ll hurl!” Out now from the O’Brien Press in all good booksellers) which I did with the help of the very talented 6th class kids Griffeen Valley Educate Together National School, Lucan. The window display will be up for two weeks. All photos of me looking smug by Fennell Photography.”

GAA Director General Páraic Duffy added: “The GAA is delighted to be involved in this partnership and we are particularly looking forward to the roll out of the programme in Scotland after its success in Ireland last year. “Sport has the potential to make a special connection with young people and we believe the other holistic elements of the camps can make a real difference to the young people participating.”
FIGHT!

A night with The Roscommon GAA football senior players.
Ciaran Walsh writes:
“Everyone who worked on the video did so for free and has a connection to Roscommon (some ties stronger than others). The video was out of respect to the dedication of the Roscommon team. I think that dedication is captured in the video.”

The Southall Shamrocks.
Made up of FOREIGNERS.
Southall Shamrocks was established after Irish geography teacher Brendan Doherty ran several football sessions last summer as part of National Sports Week at Featherstone High School in West London, where almost 99 per cent of its 1,500 pupils are from an ethnic minority. Now, the team are braving the cold winter evenings twice a week as they train ahead of their three-day tour of Ireland’s GAA hotspots during the school’s half-term break.
Is this a first for the illuminati GAA anyone?
