Held in memory of little Daire McGinley, whose parents Eamon and Rachael, are both prominent members of the Creggan club, Daire’s Day helps raise vital funds to support local families through the gruelling journey of IVF.
Saturday’s activities kicked off with a Coffee Morning with live music, bouncy castles and raffles before a Ladies 7s competition which was followed by a Men’s 7s tournament – and all for a great cause! Photographer Deirdre Heaney was among the crowd at Piggery Ridge so why not check out a few of Deirdre’s photos from a memorable day…...
