Jim Kelly R.I.P
While our tribute in last week’s notes to the late Jim Kelly  were confined to his role in the Aghabog jersey in the late 1950’s and early 60’s, perhaps it was in 1961 that Jim’s greatest triumphs came. Ironically it was a year that his home team did not affiliate a team and four players were transferred to Tyholland, namely Jim, Macartan Murphy, Frankie McCabe and Gerry Brady, R.I.P.
Tyholland won their first Co. Board trophy, the  Dr. Ward Cup, and the Gold Flake Tournament in what was a great year for them. We have sourced 2 photographs of the winning teams from that season, these can be seen on Aghabog website. When Tyholland  celebrated the 50th aniversary of that historic win, Jim and Frankie were among the honoured guests. The Tyholland club were represented at Jim’s funeral as his coffin was draped in the Aghabog colours at the removal from his home, with a guard of honour of former and present footballers at the Church .  A couple of years ago Jim given a Hon. Vice President position in recognition of his services to the club.

Ulster GAA Coaching Conference: The O’Neill’s Ulster GAA Coaching Conference 2014
will be held in the Hilton Hotel, Templepatrick, Co. Antrim on Saturday 1st February 2014. The theme for 2014 is ’20/20 Vision for 2020 Clubs’ and will have a particular resonance with those coaches working within schools, clubs, academies and county squads in urban settings. Guest speaker will be Brian Mullins, former Dublin Manager. Anybody interested in attended please contact a club officer.
