All hands on deck as big match approaches

IT was all hands on deck in Dunmanway yesterday as locals, volunteers and even team members pitched in to get everything ship-shape for the arrival of Premiership giants Liverpool FC.

The grounds of Maria Immaculata College were a hive of activity as the finishing touches were being put to the pitch and surrounding area to transform it into a ground capable of holding a bumper crowd of 7,000.

Even the players due to line out against the might of The Pool were chipping in and helping out.
