History of Famous Tipperary
Athletes by Michael O'Dwyer
New Series of Famous Tipperary Athletes By
Michael O'Dwyer
Following on from his very successful Tipperary
Olympian Series a few years back (see here),
Michael
O'Dwyer is currently compiling a new series of Tipperary
Athletics history which deals with famous Tipperary
athletes and those with Tipperary connections who have
achieved high in their chosen events. We would like to
thank Michael for his contribution to Tipperary
Athletics History over the years. We are truly indebted
to him for all his great work.
