Cuala Casements – Junior Football – An Corn Plant Winners 1973
Cartlann Digiteach Cuala is thankful to Paul Keogh for supplying this image from 1973 when a “Cuala” team won their first Adult Football trophy for Dalkey – An Corn Plant – after a replay in Bohernabreena in conditions that were so wet that PJ Holden broke his leg.
The short-lived Cuala Casements club grew out of the 1972 amalgamation of Dalkey’s Roger Casements and Dun Laoghaire’s Cuala Boys. In 1974, ‘Casements amalgamated with Dalkey Mitchell’s to become Cuala Hurling & Football Club.
Here are the full list of players. We are still hoping someone will be able to identify No 14.
