Ramor United GFC grounds in Virginia, County Cavan was renamed Dolan Park at a special ceremony on (Sunday, May 10) in memory of Niall Dolan RIP.

The occasion was marked by a challenge match between Cavan and Meath with throw in at 6.30pm and was attended by the GAA president Aogan O' Fearghail.

The grounds formerly known as Ramor Park is now named Dolan Park after Niall Dolan and his family who have been stalwart supporters of the club. Niall sadly passed away aged 52 on June 1, 2014 after a long illness.

"Niall Dolan was a cherished member of Ramor United football club who as a player and administrator was a leader," said Paul Glackin, PRO of Ramor United. "Niall helped the club and the local community with his vision, drive and enthusiasm. Niall put his heart and soul into both Ramor United and into Lurgan ladies. Ramor United and the wider community have lost a great friend and colleague but one who will continue to inspire for generations to come."

Glackin added: "Niall and the Dolan family will have a place in our hearts and we are proud to name our grounds in their honour. We are thankful to Airsynergy as one of our main sponsors of today's event."

Niall was a Director of Airsynergy at the time of his passing.

Adrian Kelly, Co-Founder of Airsynergy, said: "Niall contributed a great deal to the success of Airsynergy to date and his role was instrumental in shaping the company. As we see our technology go to market, Niall will more than ever be in our thoughts and we are delighted to be able to support this event and the renaming ceremony in his and his family's honour."
