Grand Masters
Somewhat late with this news but Ireland’s Grand Masters recently won the Celtic Cup.
Stuart Switzer a former Club Captain and current member of the Men’s 5th X1 (Winners of the Cup and League double this year) was a member of the Irish Men’s Grand Masters team won the Celtic Cup this weekend in Bangor Co Down. They drew 1-1 in a tough encounter with Wales on Friday night then trounced France 7-1 on Saturday. Sunday’s final game was a winner take all scenario. Scotland started the stronger but Ireland took the lead when Glenanne’s Eddie O’Malley shot high into the roof of the net. Bangor’s George Blackwood then scored twice from penalty corner moves to make it 3-0. Scotland pulled one back but Ireland held on to win their first tournament in only their second season. The Irish Grand Masters play in the European Cup in London this August with the World Cup in May 2016 in Australia.
Stuart joined Three Rock in 1969 and has been a playing member a mere 46 years
