A GRAND SLAM winner with Ireland in 2013, Joy Neville has been named to take charge of Saturday’s Women’s Rugby World Cup final between New Zealand and England in Belfast.

The former international, who wore the number eight jersey with great distinction until she hung up her boots a year before the 2014 World Cup, got back to the tournament as an official as she was named on a tournament panel of nine referees and five assistants. 

The Limerick woman has been installed as the lead official in the competition climax with Australia’s Graham Cooper and Scotland’s Hollie Davidson the assistant referees on touchline duty.

Tea for MND

Many thanks to all who supported our Tea for MND fundraiser at Flannerys .

The event raised €1500 for this very worthy cause.


MK, one of our own ..... needs your help.

Hi MK (Mike),

 

I am writing this email on behalf of Michael Clancy – or MK as most of you will know him by. MK was heavily involved with UL BOHS and has refereed across Munster for countless years. But this staunch Munster man has recently been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND).

 

Since MK’s diagnosis his grip has begun to fail and his speech is deteriorating. MK has decided that while he can he wants to give a little back. He has bravely agreed to front an Awareness Drive for MND throughout the month of June. Please listen out for his radio advert and interviews.

 “My sisters were worried I was drinking as I had started to slur my words! It took months of tests but eventually I was told I have MND. I spent the next four days just driving around with tears down my face. I had no idea how me and my family were going to cope”, said Michael.


Michael has decided to share his story about living with his terminal disease in the hope that greater awareness will raise vital funds for those with this degenerative and debilitating condition, which has a devastating effect on patients.


This disease has affected my hands so much soon I won’t be able to hold my precious little grandson. Soon he won’t be able to hear me speak,” said Michael.

This is where you and your club members come in – if you are in a position to help MK and lend a helping hand then we need you. 


Michael is encouraging people from around Ireland to Drink Tea for MND. 


It’s that simple – all you have to do is arrange a Tea Day in your club with committee members, teams, supporters etc. 


Supervalu have very generously donated tea packs and they are all ready to be sent out to you. Just email fundraising@imnda.ie  or Freefone 1800 403 403 to receive your tea pack today!


If you can’t organise a tea day, they can make a tea donation just Text MND to 50300 and donate €2. (Some network providers charge VAT, meaning a minimum of €1.63 will go to IMNDA. Service Provider LIKECHARITY 0766805278)

MK will feature on radio adverts that will air from 1st – 14th June. For more visit www.imnda.ie


Thank you for your time & we hope you will Drink Tea for MND with MK this June!


From Maeve & MK
