Ken.
Your right it is Pat and Kieran and the other guy I think is Ger Power from Cork.
Kieran's dad was the trainer
I also have another photo which I am trying to find and it is of the other team on the day.
Matt how long is John Byrne gone from the army?

I came across this Members Card for St Josephs Hurling Club Curragh 1966. It was my brother Donal's card and he would have been around 10 when he was playing. I didn't even know of such a Hurling Club. Did any of the forum members play for the club? Matt |
