Passing of the Club's President and Vice President in 2024
While 2024 will be remembered for many memorable success’s on the field it also had a downside with the sad passing of Club President Bobby Gardiner and Vice President Mattie Feeney. They were former players with the Cussane Hurling Club with Bobby later helping Athenry win the 1957 County Junior Final. Both will be fondly remembered for their passionate support for the Club and encouragement for players in their team management roles.
