Remember the Brownlee brothers? Sports fans were moved when Allistair helped a struggling Jonny to cross the finish line during the World Triathlon Series.

Show of sportsmanship from young Irish brothers will move you to tears

It was a fine show of love and sportsmanship.

A few weeks later, Youghal had its own Brownlee moment when brothers Oscar and Noah Wilson were competing in the Kidathlon.

After one brother had fallen with the end in sight, the other rushed back to help him and support him over the line.

Their inspiring act got a just reward as a month later the Wilson's were awarded medals at the National Aquatic Centre by some very special guests...the Brownlee brothers.

Well done to both Oscar and Noah. They've captured the true spirit of sport.
