Éire Óg GAA will be the first club in Co. Roscommon to take Seamus O'Rourke's new play For Club and County: The Making of a Sporting Hero, produced in association with the GAA Social initiative and ASAP programme. The production is sponsored by Calor and will be touring nationwide on The Moth Productions GAA fundraising tour until May 2013.

The comedy play written and directed by former Co. Leitrim footballer, stars Tommy Sharkey of Victor's Dung fame, Karina Charles and Shane O'Connor.

"The cast and crew are delighted to be returning to Gorthganny. We were there with Seamus's Victor's Dung in March and it went down a storm, they are terrific hosts," said Will Govan of Moth Productions.

There are just two weeks to go before the county final and Matt "the Maestro", manager of Tanaree's senior football side, is determined to end the clubs 23-year run of bad form. Their hopes are dashed as their dual football and hurling star Ritchie Brown busts his knee dipping sheep. But has Richie's girlfriend, the wily Jenny, found the answer in Arthur Polanski, who just happens to be the spit of Ritchie Brown? Just because he's not a member of the country, let alone the club, doesn't mean he can't play in the final. And he doesn't have to speak
English, he just has to talk GAA!
