The Saffron Business Forum Sports Lunch made a return today after a two year abscence and it turned out to be another memorable day at Crown Plazza Hotel, Shaw’s Bridge. Guests of honour were former Tipperary Hurling mananger Liam Sheedy and one of his greatest players during his two terms at the helm Brendan Maher. Tyrone’s All Ireland winning captain Padraig Hampsey brought along the Sam Maguire Cup while little Daithi McGabhan got a very special welcome. Overall another excellent day and hopefully a lot of money raised for Antrim GAA
