The Shannon Blues Gaelic Football Club of Boston, Is delighted to announce that we will be making the long trip back from Boston to West Kerry, with the final destination being Paidi O Se's pub in Ard a Bhothair in Ventry, Co Ciarrai.
On this the 40th anniversary of our club, it's only fitting that we have been invited to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Comortas Peile Paidi O Se.
The Shannon Blues was founded in 1974, and has been competing in the New England Championship since then, last winning the senior championship in 2012. We are a very successful club on and off the field with members who are very dedicated and motivated in bringing success to the club year after year.
As we desend on the Dingle Peninsula next weekend, we very much look forward to making new friends sharing a pint with old friends and team mates from year's gone by, remembering the times past and speculating the future.
But most of all we look forward to representing our club the Shannon Blues GFC Boston in the Comortas Peile Paidi O Se, and competing on the field with dignity.
If there is any past members that will be around Dingle on the weekend of the 21st - 23rd of February, we would love if you could come out and watch the games.
