Different ball game but road bowling a family affair for Armagh netminder Ethan Rafferty 

The Sam Maguire winner claimed the All-Ireland senior road bowling crown over the weekend in Cork.

The senior All-Ireland final held at Castletownkinneigh was won by Ethan Rafferty from Armagh.

Ethan Rafferty achieved a unique addition to his All-Ireland football medal won last year when claiming the All-Ireland senior road bowling crown over the weekend.

The latter success, though, is no way unique to his family. Sunday’s win merely lifts him onto the bottom step of a family ladder steeped in road bowling silverware.
