The GAA Gallery
The first GAA club to be founded in Cavan and Ulster was established in Ballyconnell in 1885. This gallery charts the success of Cavan's camogie, football and hurling teams and includes the jerseys and football boots belonging to P.J. Duke, a Cavan footballer from the 1940s, as well as All-Ireland medals won by Cavan stars Val Gannon and Victor Sherlock. Also on display is a 500-year-old sliotar made from hair, demonstrating the antiquity of our national games. |
