Two little girls from Galbally helped made history for the South Limerick village this week, being the first club in the history of the Limerick GAA Clubs’ draw to win the first prize two months in a row.
There were big smiles and excited giggles from sisters Ruth (5) and Aoife (3) Kiely, as they went to O’Connell’s Bar in Galbally with their parents Louise and John on Tuesday night to collect their cheque for €10,000.
