Sparks Rugby Football Club

The Connacht Junior Cup was donated by a man called Senior. He was Alfred Senior, professor of chemistry in UCG from 1891 to 1918. The cup was first played for in 1905, and as Ralph O’Gorman says in his wonderful book entitled Rugby in Connacht, the event always had a unique culture, it was competitive and unpredictable, and had a wide geographical spread of participating clubs.

Newport Town look to build for future

Newport Town FC have moved from strength to strength following their first season back in the Mayo League after a 10 year absence. Last year their hard work fell just short of a promotional spot, a massive feat for such a small club. Eyes are firmly set on the upcoming season with new goals and challenges ahead. As new horizons approach Pat Sweeney has become player manager of the club, balancing leadership both on and off the field. The club is also on the lookout for a full time assistant manager who can work hand in hand with Sweeney to inspire the players to reach their full potential. Interest to join the club is also increasing, both locally and further afield, with the club sending out an open invitation to anyone who may be interested in training with and joining the club. Training takes place at 8pm on the Castlebar Celtic astro pitch every Thursday. All players are welcome.
