  2. Folklore - Football in Olden Times

    Share Share Post
    Football was played in this district some years ago. One of the most interesting matches was between Annaduff and Bornacoola. When the final whistle blew Annaduff boys were declared winners and the scores read 18pts to 5pts. The outstanding man on the field was P. Costelloe. It was a very rough match because in olden times players were not enlightened as much as they are at present.
