Sports stars gear up for cancer charity sale

RUGBY and hurling fans have an opportunity this weekend to get their hands on a range of personal sportswear of their heroes in a special charity sale for the forthcoming Pink Ribbon Walk in Co Clare.

Current and former Munster and Ireland rugby stars — Anthony Foley, Keith Wood, Jerry Flannery, Paul O’Connell, Donncha Ryan and David Wallace among others — have donated gear, including t-shirts, jackets and jerseys for the sale which takes place tomorrow at Lakeside Hotel, Killaloe.

Also weighing in with their support will be members of Tipperary’s All-Ireland winning squad who will donate items as well as being in attendance to sign items purchased or brought along on the day.
