Tomorrow (Sunday) is big match day in our week of 1916 celebrations. The
details are

*7.30pm – Commemorative Football Match*

The Dublin County Board has included a commemorative match to be played on
the O’Tooles senior pitch at 7.30pm in its official fixture list. This
match will be played between a Cumann Uí Thuathail selection and an Áth
Cliath selection. The Áth Cliath selection will be made up of players from
the other 16 Clubs still in existence since 1916 and will be managed by the
current Dublin manager, Jim Gavin*.* All players will wear specially
designed traditional style and colour jerseys of the time. A commemorative
medal struck for the event will be presented to each team member.

The “traditional style” jerseys may be ordered and subject to demand, will
be provided for sale within the club.

*9.30pm – Ballad Session*

A post match ballad session will be held in the clubhouse after the match
presentations.

Today was a very special day with an excellent exhibition of Volunteers
memorabilia which was opened by the Lord Mayor. A few photos have been
included but a full range of photos of the day’s events will be made
available on the website in due course. Wathc this space!
