Inishowen GAA clubs to star in DVD 12.07.11

GAA personality Jerome Quinn will visit Inishowen next week to compile a specially commissioned DVD on Gaelic Games in the peninsula. The sports presenter will spend four days visiting all seven clubs in the area while also capturing some of the magnificent scenery of Inishowen.
The former BBC presenter, who now runs his own media company, was invited to the peninsula by the CLG Bord Inis Eogahin.
The GAA in Inishowen has gone from strength to strength over the last number of years with all clubs extending and improving facilities on and off the pitch. The local clubs now boast some of the best facilities in the county if not Ulster.

The cameras will visit Muff on Wednesday evening to record their successful underage structures, which have seen hurling introduced recently. Then it will be on to Burt where the focus will be on the dual club’s successes in underage football and county hurling. He will meet local management and players from the victorious Lory Meagher Cup and Under 21 Shield winning squads.
On Thursday it’s off to Straid and the Urris club who have won a number of underage titles over the past couple of years, and then on to Buncrana. Depending on the result of the Ulster final between Donegal and Derry, Ryan Bradley could be available with the Anglo Celt Cup, as well as members of the Buncrana U14 hurling team who had such a great year, winning league and championship as well as a successful run at the All Ireland Feile na nGael.
Friday will include a visit to the Carrick field in Moville where ladies football and culture will be the main focus of attention. Connolly Park in Malin will follow and Carndonagh the next day.
"CLG Bord Inis Eoghain see this initiative as another great step at promoting underage football in the area and will be hoping for a good turnout of parents and club members at the Go Games finals on the Saturday morning in Carndonagh," said a spokesperson.
