Tá Féile na nGael ag leanúint ar aghaidh anois le 43 bliana. Stór scéaltaí, comh-oibriú, réamh-ullmhúcháin, conspóidí, thuas-seal-thíos-seal, gach gné de rothaí mór an tsaoil. Táimíd ar ais arís i mbliana agus níos mó na 700 cailíní óga in ár measc. Molaim go deo iad agus éinne atá páirteach sa dea-scéal seo.

Each year Féile na nGael continues to demonstrate the wonderful joy of being young and not so young as the competition is seen as an important step in the camogie player’s relationship with the world’s fastest female sport.

Countless hours have gone into the preparations and I extend appreciation to all clubs, players, parents, schools, mentors, sponsors and anyone associated with this mega week-end. But this is a shared endeavour. This is not about anyone organisation or individual. It is about each contributing to something that enhances all who come under its umbrella. It is civic engagement at its finest.

Formed in 1974, the dream of a Tipperary man Séamas Ó Riain whose son Jack was married to the late Orla Ní Shiocháin, a Dublin camogie star in her day, Féile na nGael continues to create a store of memories that will never be erased. A number of teams from this week-end’s competition will experience the joy and honour of taking part in the national finals which are being jointly organised by Carlow, Kilkenny and Wexford.

But the Dublin event contains its own unique qualities and I would like to thank host clubs – Lucan Sarsfields, Erins Isle, Naomh Olaf, St. Annes and Castleknock for their efforts and hospitality. A warm word of appreciation also to the Dublin GAA County Board for the use of O’Toole Park and local manager Luke Lawlor.

I have no doubt that all will respect the Féile charter which calls on all participants to ensure that, at a very minimum, our Gaelic Games are promoted and played in a positive, fair and enjoyable manner where players, coaches, spectators and referees Give Respect and Get Respect from each other.

Sincere appreciation to all officials and referees for their support not only this week-end but throughout the year.

Gúim gach rath ar gach foireann.

When Erin’s Isle was founded in January 1917 its sole purpose was to promote Gaelic football in Finglas. By the time the year was out the women of the parish were not content with cheering on their fathers and brothers from the sideline and so they formed a Camogie team. For the 1918 season Erin’s Isle registered Football and Hurling team to facilitate the new reality. The family names were familiar in both codes, Emmetts, Bells, Maloney and McDonnell. The Camogie team was a formidable outfit and were unlucky to lose their league final to Faughs in Croke Park on 6th October 1918.After the disruption caused by the War of Independence and Civil War, games began to get back to normal. In 1925 the Isles were to win their first ever league title in Camogie. Players selected for the county team included, Annie Luby and two of the Maloney sisters. At the 1928 Tailteann Games Mrs. M McCarty representing Erin’s Isle and Dublin, was on the successful Leinster Team defeating Connaught in the final. Isles remained competitive at the top level until the early 1930s, when after that it went into decline.

1973 saw the revival of Camogie in Finglas. A Camogie section was set up in Erin’s Isle and by the end of that year there were two teams registered, one juvenile to ensure that a solid foundation was being laid for the future. New family names surfaced Reaney, Toman, Boylan, Martins and Byrne. By 1975 they were Camogie Shield winners. Championship success was to follow in 1983/84. This was to continue at Adult and Juvenile level with several leagues and championships acquired along the way. By the year 2000 Isles were fielding two adult and four juvenile teams at different grades.Isles senior team at this stage were competing at the highest level eventually winning the Senior A Championship in 2003 beating St Vincent’s after a replay.

The Isles contribution to the county efforts has been strong and ongoing. In 1982 Clare Reaney and Mary Duane represented Isles on the winning inter county League team. While on the back to back Junior All Ireland winning teams of 2005 and 2006 Isles was represented by Julie Draper, Louise O’Hara, Valerie Reaney, Gillian McCluskey and Anne Mc Cluskey, the latter captained Dublin on the second occasion. Louise O’Hara and Anne Mc Cluskey were both nominated for an All Star in 2006, with Louise receiving the ultimate players accolade; she was also voted the Dublin Player of the Decade in 2014 at the same time Catherine Connaghan was inducted into the Camogie Hall of Fame. Over the years Isles has been well represented on County adult, juvenile and Development Squads. Today Erin’s Isle fields three adult teams and at least one team in every juvenile age group.

This year, 2017, the Club is celebrating the centenary of its foundation. A long list of “Céad Bliain ag Fás” events are planned for the year – peaking with a Gala Dinner Dance Reunion in Croke Park in November. The celebrations kicked off on New Year’s Day (wasting no time) with the raising of a specially commissioned Erin’s Isle Centenary Flag over the club house and a robust Camogie match played in period costume, skirt, blouse and sash. A great day was had by all. Looking forward to the next one hundred years.
