On Thursday evening, at 6:30pm, many of Galway's newly crowned All-Ireland champions will take part in a game organised to raise money for the Keady family.

Current and former players - stars of Galway's hurling past - are set to feature and fans will hope to see these two bucks lining out for a puck about.
It sounds like a great evening and it will be good for the champions to blow off some cobwebs after a few nights' celebrations and song.
