The Ballinasloe club played a major role in that squad, as events both on and off the field, resulting in Galway’s first ever title. Twenty of the 24-man squad played for the club with Corofin, Moylough, Kilbannon, Mountbellew and Dunmore also represented.

Three members of the organising committee John Egan, Willie Tully and Joey Walsh joined Ollie Turner in studio today to look ahead to the event, and look back on Galway’s historic success.
