Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit this page in memory of Jimmy.

As you know, Jimmy was an exceptional squash player, playing on the first team at Ballyearl for years along with the Ulster Senior team.  This social tournament is an opportunity for some of his many friends across Ulster Squash to get together and enjoy playing a few games at his beloved Ballyearl.  

Please share this page to anyone who knew Jimmy.  Look forward to seeing many of you on Saturday.
