Photo of the Week

Abbeyside v Mount Sion, 1955
Abbeyside Players (L to R): N. McGovern, J. Hogan, L. O'Dea, P. Clancy, P. Whelan, T. Collender, P. Browne, L. Whelan.

This week's photo comes from 1955 and shows the Abbeyside and Mount Sion teams in the pre-match parade in a game for the benefit of Abbeyside School's Building Fund. The match took place just a few weeks after the tight County Senior Hurling Final which the same teams contested. This time however, Mount Sion ran out comfortable winners on a scoreline of 9-6 to 1-4.
