Liam MacCarthy Cup visits Lorrha: The Liam MacCarthy Cup visited the parish last Tuesday with Patrick Maher, Brian Hogan and John Madden bringing the All Ireland trophy to Lorrha, Redwood and Rathcabbin National Schools, as well as Killeen NS, where Brian Hogan went to school. It also paid a visit to St Kieran's Nursing Home while later in the evening at the Clubhouse, all our juvenile players were able to get their hands on the trophy before a special event later in the night where special presentations were made to our three heroes by chairman Graham Downes while local All Ireland Fleadh winner William Holmes was also present to play some tunes.
