Mullabrack in the 1960's

As the 1960’s progressed, the team found it very difficult to field because of various defections due to work and so, football ceased within the club for a number of years.  This changed when a young priest called Fr McGuckin was appointed curate in Mullabrack.  He was the main instigator in kick starting Mullabrack club again.  O’Donovan Rossa reformed in 1968 and continued until 1973.  The committee for the first Annual General Meeting in January 1969 was President: Kevin McNamee; Chairman: John McGrath; Secretary: Raymond Pickering; Treasurer: Fr McGuckin and Selectors: Brendan O’Hanlon; Bob McClure and Nattie McGeown.  The team captain in that year was Nattie McGeown.

 

 

The Acquisition of a Playing Field

 


When construction was started, the club again folded because of a lack of a pitch.  In 1972, Fr McGuckin was transferred from our parish to Donaghmore.  However, the remaining members of the grounds committee were determined to carry on and see the new venture through.  These men organised fundraising events such as, the running of ten-week draws, twice a year for a period covering seven years.  The ladies of the parish organised guest teas to boost fund raising.  It must also be remembered that many other parishioners worked tirelessly as ticket sellers for the ten-week draws.

 

The final construction of the new field was completed by 1978 and the club reformed.
