Would be worth going to and a worthy cause.

Looks like there's enough Meath men in there to do damage.
QuoteA Charity GAA football match between the Jockeys and Trainers in aid of Children's University Hospital in Temple Street will take place on November 7 in Navan.
Temple Street Hospital is the National Pediatric Renal, Dialysis and Transplant Hospital of Ireland. Temple Street Hospital always needs new haemodialysis and peritoneal machines. The cost of this equipment is €35,000 per machine. Our aim is to raise enough money to purchase a haemodialysis machine.
The Jockeys vs. Trainers Charity GAA Match will be held at Simonstown GAA pitch in Navan, Co. Meath on Nov 7th at 7.30pm under floodlights.
So far there has been plenty of interest from both Jockeys and Trainers. There was an impromptu practice kick around between the jockeys in the Parade Ring at Navan Racecourse last Saturday much to the bewilderment of the At The Races commentary team who were unaware of what was going on!
Local Jockeys taking part in the event include Barry Geraghty, Puppy Power, Paul Carberry, Andrew Lynch, Andrew Duff and Rodger Loughran together with Davy Russell, Martin Ferris, Mark Walsh, Matthew Bowes and Alain Cawley to name a few.
The jockeys will be managed by Ken Whelan and Noel Meade is to take charge of the Trainers team with many well known faces from Irish Racing signed up to such as Willie Mullins, Colm Murphy, Paul Nolan, Conor O'Dwyer, Shark Hanlon together with local trainers Gavin Cromwell, Ronan O'Dwyer and Tony Martin!
The game will be followed by music, entertainment and a raffle in the Simonstown GFC clubhouse.
