Mass on internet for Christy Ring

AN anniversary Mass in memory of the late great Christy Ring will be broadcast worldwide this Sunday on the internet.

The 29th anniversary service is being held at St Augustine’s Church, Washington Street, Cork, and will be attended by members of the legendary hurler’s family, former clubmates and friends and broadcaster Donncha Ó Dulaing.

However, the Mass is also expected to be followed around the globe by old contemporaries and admirers of the Cloyne man, who won eight All-Ireland senior hurling medals with Cork as well as a string of other club, county, provincial and personal honours.
