Yes, this followed an initiative by the Antrim Co Board in the late 70s whereby kids were encouraged to pick up the skills of the game or else they'd be shot. A few years later we made the All Ireland final.

You have to say one thing for the British Army, it always gave young English, Scot and Welsh lads the chance to experience other cultures abroad before the Irish offered them cheap flights on Ryanair.
Great photo by the way.
Ahh the good aul days , no helmets even the Brit .
That telephone pole was a hard basterd.
It is notable how few cars are on the street. Most places like that are parked out nowadays.
Great fotie. Is there a couple of Paras playing kerbie up the street?

Posh w**ker has Copa Mundials on as well.
That's fancy dan McCooeys for you. Probably had a sunbed tan too.

At least 4 men (or women!), there is another gun in the photo and there is the cameraman/woman.
