Title: Putting together a Waterford results archive
Post by: deiseach on April 11, 2010, 08:15:02 PM
As the only regular Déisigh here, probably going to be talking to myself but that's never stopped me before, so . . .

It was a lovely day here in Tramore, so I took the laptop out the back and got cracking on a project I've been contemplating since I first saw it on the Mayo blog, Green and Red (http://"http://mayogaablog.com/?page_id=222"): an archive of Waterford's inter-county results. I've put together the senior hurlers championship results, shamlessly cogged from Dickie Roche's A Story of Hurling in Waterford, but the real work starts now, i.e. trying to get all the results together, including League, U-21, Minor and Junior / Intermediate. Any information, no matter how trivial it might seem, gratefully accepted. I can be found at the blog (http://"http://deiseach.wordpress.com"), emailing me at deiseach@gmail.com ("deiseach@gmail.com") or sending a PM.

Oh, and if I'm duplicating someone else's efforts, please let me know!

Try getting a subscription to the Irish Times archives for a couple of months.
You get most of what you want there.

Seems it's available for free in the Waterford city library so I'll be checking that out, cheers

It shouldn't take too long to do.
For most of its Waterford had one championship outing every year!  ;D
