Willie McGee, Leixlip has furnished the attached photograph of the Garda Síochána Football Team circa 1970, that we hope to have published in next edition of Siochain Magazine.
It's a photograph of an All-Ireland Garda team that played the Tipperary Senior team to celebrate the opening of the GAA football pitch in Templemore, circa 1970.
