Covid has put a stop to the Hurling for Cancer charity hurling match organised by Jim Bolger and Davy Russell for the second year, so instead they are hosting an online auction to raise money for the Irish Cancer Society. The auction closes on Tuesday, Aug. 10 at 9 p.m. on what would have been the match day.
Featuring on the list of auction items are yard visits with many of Ireland's leading trainers, including Johnny Murtagh, Tracey Collins, Ger Lyons, Henry de Bromhead and Conor O'Dwyer. The auction also offers chances to bid on a VIP trip to Longines Irish Champions Weekend, luxury overnight stays at Lyrath Estate Hotel and Mount Juliet, a coursewalk with Davy Russell, and a boat trip on the Shannon with the inimitable Ronnie O'Leary.
The full list of auction items can be viewed at www.galabid.com/hurlingforcancer.
