DUBAI GULF GAELIC SEVENS' TOURNAMENT - JAN 2008

Sean Treacy’s Hurling Club got its 50^th year anniversary celebrations off to a flying start having had a very successful trip to Dubai to participate in the annual Dubai 7’s GAA tournament. Over 100 teams were represented (mainly from Ireland) and Sean Treacy’s were the sole London representatives in the hurling tournament.

9 players made the trip under the management team of Martin Carroll / Martin Cahill and all of the players and management deserve great credit in promoting the standard of hurling in London overseas.The tournament was held on Fri Jan 25^th and Sat Jan 26^th with festivities being organized all week. 

The team got off to a flying start beating the Dublin Civil Service and then Glen Rovers from Cork. We beat the Dubai Celts local team in the semi final of the shield and played Erins Own in the final.

We started this game very well and were 4 points to no score up after 5 minutes. However the number of games were starting to take its toll in the blistering heat and having only 2 available substitutes when all the other teams had 7 or 8 worked against us and we were beaten by a gallant and brilliant Erins Own team who are the currant All Ireland 7’s champions. The club would like to thank our main sponsor Paddy Crowe in The Ramble Inn Tooting for helping us out in finalizing the trip and we would like to thank all at the Dubai Celts GAA club for their great organization skills and hospitality.  

More pictures from the tournament are available under the Photos link.

Our fundraising golf day was a great success and a super days entertainment was enjoyed by all 52 golfers and the many members who joined us for the meal later that day. We would like to extend a huge thank you to all our sponsors on the day, with a special mention for the days main sponsors, The Ramble Inn Tooting, Foundation Developments, Cappagh, and Bank of Ireland. It is hoped that this event will become an annual day out for the club, as it proved to be a huge success both as a fun day out and on the the all important fundraising side.
