By Guinness Rider::::: At the University of Laval, confronted by the host Quebec Patriotes GAA and inclement weather, Montreal Shamrocks GAA Football team won the Quebec cup for the second year running. Shamrocks produced a dominant display from beginning to end, scoring early and often, tightening the midfield and defense. They attacked with and without the ball non-stop, pressuring in all parts of the field. Despite the hosts’ best efforts Montreal wouldn’t be denied, and the Cup is back on the island for the third time in four years. A decent crowd was subjected, along with both teams, to weather that wavered between soggy and miserable, but the spirit of the game was excellent, hard-fought and nothing given either way, right up to the last whistle. Special thanks to our hosts on the day for making a fine event out of it, and congratulations to the club, the supporters, and the players, who have not only brought home silverware, but laid a strong foundation for the GAA’s continued development in the province of Quebec.
