Mullinahone GAA

Emma strikes All Ireland glory. In 1997 when Tipperary lost to Clare in the All Ireland final, Pat Kenny brought his Kenny Live show to Mullinahone to interview some or our county hurlers. On the television footage many of our young juveniles were filmed showing their skills to the nation. One of those juveniles was Emma Williams.

It’s ironic that ten years later Emma was to win an All Ireland senior camogie club medal with Cashel. Emma has played with Cashel in recent years but started her playing career with Mullinahone under 12s an under 14s. On behalf of all her team mates from those early days we congratulate Emma on a fantastic win. We contratulat also her proud parents Joe and Ann Williams. Of course Joe was no mean hurler himself so as the saying goes she didn’t pick it up from the ground. Enjoy your success Emma. You may be very proud.

Juvenile Medal Presentation

On next Saturday night our under 14 county champions will be presented with their medals following 8pm Mass. The function takes place in the sports hall. Everybody is welcome, as are children.

Micheal Hogan Memorial

Last Sunday in Grangemockler a wreath laying ceremony took place to remember Michael Hogan, who was shot in Croke Park. A good turn out by clubs showed the respect to this day. The graveside oration was by former president Paddy Buggy. The Mullinahone banner was carried by John Vaughan and Tony Nolan.

Representing the club were chairman Tommy O Sullivan and treasurer Albert Curran along with PRO Jackie Bolger. Dick Egan attended in his capacity as did Martin Cody as Bord na nOg vice-chairman.

It was one of those occasions that reminded us of the vast history associated with the club.
