Carlow were there with Garryowen, Lansdowne, Ballymena, Shannon and Cork Constitution. Six months ago, Mary’s fingers slipped through Tommy Doyle’s hands for the […] To this day, the club is still playing a vital part in the lives of many of those in the Carlow town community. He codded us all into it.It was no surprise to see the club President Edel Gibbons, Chairman Melvin Elmes, Honorary Secretary Arlene Browne and Tommy in Energia Park when The Bees took to the 4G pitch during the Celtic Cup match between Leinster A and the Dragons Development XV on 28 September.“We had a great time. Come for the 1200-year old legacy, stay for the live music, cannon ball decorations and crackling fire. The Scarlets now play at purpose-built stadium ‘Parc y Scarlets’.This fantastic sport that we all love has such an elaborate history, but who are the record breakers when it comes to longevity? The land came up for sale in Oak Park and Tom had the initiative to buy it.They even gate-crashed the All-Ireland League party to climb all the way to the top of Division One in the 2000s.“At this stage, I would be happy with mid-table in Division 1B and winning the Towns Cup,” smiled Tommy.He demurred when it came to his own impact on the club, insisting the garlands should be hung around the thick-neck of Tommy O’Brien.There is also a thriving mini-rugby and Youths section at Carlow, a striving Ladies section and the Carlow Bees, the all-inclusive, disability arm of the club, all supported by the wonderful voluntary work that is the lifeblood of the club.Fifty-two years later, Tommy is the go-to man when any person interested wants to delve into the uniqueness of the club of the Carberys, the O’Briens, the Elmes, the Brennans, the Gordons and so many more.© 2020 Content Copyright LeinsterTommy’s sons Robert and David played with the club for a short period in the 1990s and grandson Jack, who played three years of Senior Cup for Newbridge, is currently playing for Lansdowne U20s.There have been three golden eras of Carlow rugby, the 1930s, the 1960s and the 1990s, the latter bunch winning a remarkable five out of six Towns Cups from 1992 to 1997.From those glorious days, Carlow slowly dropped through the lower ranks of the All-Ireland League, tumbling all the way to Division 2A of the Leinster Junior League.Photo by David Fitzgerald/Sportsfile“We are doing it with all our players coming up through the system in the club with the exception of two players from Carlow IT. The jet-heeled scrum-half, who plays his club rugby in France’s D2 with Brive, has already amassed 37 caps for his country and at 22, will be expecting to carry his considerable experience to Japan. Then we won two Leinster Senior Cups, beating DLSP in both finals in the early 2000s.”“In the 60s, I played with players, like the props Gerry Gordon, from Carlow, and Jack Ryan, from Athy, they would have been the Tadhg Furlong of their era.“The sad thing is a lot of my friends, from that generation, have passed away. The ethos in the club and the members there have led to lifelong friendships.“When I left school, I played with Lansdowne for 18 months and then came back to Carlow,” he said.The history of Carlow has been about firsts and breaking the mould, Maureen Gordon becoming the first Lady President of a senior club in Ireland and the current President Edel Gibbons is following in her footsteps. You are starting to get pushed out when you are the historian of the club,” he laughed.“The present committee has a lot of the lads that were playing on those great teams of the 1990s,” said Tommy.Those were the days when everything had to be built painstakingly, brick-by-brick from the ground up.Tommy was raised in the GAA heartland of Baltinglass before moving on to Newbridge College where he grasped the oval ball for the first time alongside his cousin Jim Oliver.Six months ago, Mary’s fingers slipped through Tommy Doyle’s hands for the final time.“That is when Tom O’Brien came to me and told me about all the great players that were coming to play for Carlow. The Official website of the Irish Rugby Football Union - covering the Ireland Rugby teams, the Provincial game and community rugby across Ireland The IRFU (Irish Rugby Football Union) can confirm that the PCR testing of players and We even headed the Division One for three or four weeks at one point. According to the pub’s owners and the Guinness Book of Records, this is the Oldest Pub in Ireland. London club Barnes RFC has previously suggested it may be the oldest club in world rugby having been founded in 1839, although like Guy’s Hospital there is a lack of documentation to support this.There are a number of clubs who have been using the same grounds since the late Victorian period. Guy’s Hospital, also arguably the world’s oldest club, was the winner of the first tournament.However, Guy’s Hospital Football Club (now amalgamated with St Thomas’ Hospital) has laid claim to the title of the world’s oldest club with the belief that it was founded in 1843. He has been wedded to Carlow since 1957 and the family club has always been there, long after his playing days were finished.“My grandfather, on my mother’s side, Jim Oliver was actually a founder member back in 1873.”“They were building a new church in Athy and we bought the old one in Carlow and did it up as a clubhouse, ran dances around the country with showbands to pay for that.
