Looking for an Old Cup

I am looking for an old cup that was used in the Duhallow u14 football championship winners,
it is the cup of my late uncle John Francis Hickey who played for Millstreet and won a County in u14 football in 1957

I think, I think the cup is not being used anymore.

My uncle immigrated to America in 1963 and died in 1981 and Millstreet GAA brought out the cup in his memory around 1988 1989 I think.

If we are lucky enough to find this cup I will give it back to his family in New York.

Mothers and Others in Pairc

What an epic day out our Dromtarriffe Mother & Others aka Gaelic Grannies had yesterday in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
The Teams we played were Ballincollig, Grenagh , Amber Lillie’s & Carrigaline
And superb football was played in all our matches. Thanks to all those teams .
We were truly honoured to play on the pitch our county players get to use.
Big shout out to our supporters who came to shout us on we truly were delighted.
Once again Charlie Mc Carthy drove the Garda Bus for our trip out and we made everything so easy for us .
The highlight of course was making the RTE 1 news.!!  We think Paschal Sheehy was speechless after meeting us.
Once again big thanks to our coach Patrick who had us trained in tip top form for today.
