Cycle for Mayo Oncology Unit

Former Mayo captain Dermot Flanagan, in conjunction with his teammates from the 1995 to 1997 era, are cycling around Mayo visiting each of the GAA Clubs in the County between 14 – 21 August. The objective is to raise funds for the Mayo Hospital Oncology Unit.

The cycle visited Tom Langan Park, Ballycastle today (Wednesday), where Dermot kicked a point

(he wants to say he kicked a point in every GAA ground in the County) before heading onwards to Glenamoy. Club Chairperson Eilis Ormsby handed over a cheque on behalf of Ballycastle GAA.

 

Dermot's father Seán was captain of the last All-Ireland winning Mayo team in 1951.
