Conor Bradley memorabilia up for grabs at Aghyaran gala
Conor Bradley, with his parents the late Joe and Linda and the beloved Aghyaran jersey worn with such distinction by Conor at underage level.
A SIGNED Liverpool jersey worn by the former talented Aghyaran St Davog’s underage player, Conor Bradley, is among the items which will be raffled among the large attendance at the 70th anniversary gala being organised by the club this weekend.
Hundreds of people are expected to attend the event in Jackson’s Hotel in Ballybofey on Saturday night.
As well as the Conor Bradley jersey, a pair of football boots worn by him is also up for grabs for some fortunate attendee at the celebration event.
The boots were worn in a Premier League game against Leeds in 2025.
The club, of course, was founded in 1956.
During the intervening period, there have been many moments to remember, as well as the odd setback on and off the field.
It has been seven decades when the club has made many contributions.
Intermediate successes, impressive spells in the senior ranks and numerous triumphs at underage level will undoubtedly all be celebrated when players, supporters and officials gather to mark such a magnificent milestone.
Then, there is the club’s impressive representation on Tyrone teams over the years.
The late Brendan Dolan – after whom the Tyrone ACL Division One trophy is named – was part of the Tyrone team which reached the Ulster Final in 1972. He died tragically early in 1973.
Ciaran McGarvey was full-back on the first Tyrone team to reach an All-Ireland senior final in 1986, while Ronan McNamee was full-back on the team which captured the Sam Maguire Cup for the fourth time in 2021.
So, a big night is in prospect for all associated with the green and gold a club which over the past seventy years has made a proud contribution to the promotion of gaelic games and culture in the Aghyaran area and throughout Tyrone.
