Galway & District League Teams
Galway ( ; ga, Gaillimh, ) is a city in the West of Ireland, in the province of Connacht, which is the county town of County Galway. It lies on the River Corrib between Lough Corrib and Galway Bay, and is the sixth most populous city on the island of Ireland and the fourth most populous in the Republic of Ireland, with a population at the 2022 census of 83,456.

The Connaught Telegraph
''The Connaught Telegraph'' is a weekly local newspaper published in Castlebar, County Mayo in Ireland. The paper is in compact format (six columns), and published every Tuesday. Frederick Cavendish founded ''The Connaught Telegraph'' or ''Mayo Telegraph'' as it was originally named, on 17 March 1828, and used it as an organ to help fight the battles of the lower classes. He swiftly established a reputation as a man of authority and strong opinions, and demonstrated how powerful the press could be in the long and arduous struggle to achieve Home Rule for Ireland. As editor, Cavendish earned a reputation as a man to be respected. When setting up the newspaper, he incorporated it into the titles of other local publications. As a result, many historians believe ''The Telegraph'' goes back as far as 1808. They base their assertion on the fact the name or title of a newspaper does not and could not take from the age of the original newspaper. In July 2014, after being bought out by ...
