Dromina deserving of the limelight

YESTERDAY Dromina, a little village in north Cork, had its day in the sun — or scouring rain, to be more precise — as the hurlers of Cork and Laois rolled in for a challenge to mark the opening of new GAA facilities.

Time enough for them. Dromina have standards: they go all the way back to the start of the Association.

There were two men from the village in Hayes’ Hotel the day the GAA was formed, for instance, which is more than some counties can claim.
