Following a Magnificent day of festivities at Shantalla Community Festival! The Titans reflect on their own participation..including Marching in the parade with some of the local children and adults they have Coached, they Paraded through the streets, singing, chanting, dribbling, smiling, waving and drumming..admiring the Titan bunting of the Hanney-household as they marched behind the Cashman Titan-Banner from the North of Ireland..their numbers swelled with the arrival of the u15/ 16 cohort from their Westside off season and the Transatlantic confluence of Coaches Barile and Tongo.
On stage the Titans were duly represented in the Daniel O’Connell Re-enactment by Joe Coughlan as the colourful Lord Valentine Blake T.D. of the British Parliament back in the pre-famine days!
But the Titan-vignette of the day..had to be that moment when President of Ireland Dr.Michael D Higgins honoured the Titans Club with a photographic opportunity acknowledging their Multi-cultural efforts as pro-active members of the Community as Coaches, Children and Victory Scholars!
Photo includes-Coaches Barile; Coughlan; Tongo ( Victory Scholar); Eoin and Joseph Coughlan and Ladmy.
It is however very important to acknowledge the much appreciated commitment of some of the Titan Families who are proven stalwarts on such occasions ..and without whom, events like this would have locus nor focus..Thank You to the Haneys’; Mc Guinness/ Mc Inerneys; Pesaitis’;Coughlans and Cashmans and the youth leadership of Kyle.
