On December 29th, Breaffy’s senior men’s and women’s teams took to the field in Ballyheane to play two challenge games against ISSC Vancouver. Over 40 Vancouver players and management travelled from all corners of Ireland and from Canada for the games to pay tribute to our great mutual friend and team-mate, David Gavin.
Once again on St. Stephen’s Day last, Breaffy GAA hosted our second annual fundraising blitz between senior players past and present. Four teams competed to dethrone last year’s champions, “The Oldies”, to determine who would earn this year’s bragging rights.
Over Christmas we hosted the first of what will hopefully become an annual Breaffy GAA St. Stephen’s Day fundraising blitz between senior players past and present. Four teams of 11-a-side battled it out over the course of the day to see who would be crowned champions. All funds raised on the day were in support of the David Gavin Fund.
Breaffy men’s senior team ended their season on a high after being crowned Mayo Senior Football League Division 1A champions for 2017 with a 1-11 to 0-12 win over Knockmore on Sunday morning.

ON the longest day, this fixture started early. But as a contest it was over long before the end.
