DATE CHANGE:
Sean Farrell Memorial Tournament
Sunday, September 26, 2010
Sean Farrell was tragically killed on July 12, 2005 by a car that was accidentally dislodged while vacationing in Ireland. He was 6 years old. Sean had been vacationing in Ireland with his parents John and Bridget when the tragedy happened. The family was on their last week of holidays visiting family in the town of Oldcastle in Co. Meath.
Sean was outgoing and personable. He was a fantastic boy and was friends with all the kids in his neighborhood. Sean would have started first grade at Hollis Elementary School in Braintree that coming fall.
Before his trip to Ireland, Sean would come to the Irish Cultural Center in Canton, MA and practice with the U8 team in football.
On October 22, 2006 a bench and tree were dedicated in Sean’s memory in the Children’s Park at the Irish Cultural Centre. It is living tribute to a little boy who touched so many hearts; his memory will live on forever.
On Sunday, September 12 we will once again host the Sean Farrell Tournament for our club. We want every age group present: U6-U18 to celebrate this young child’s life and end the ISYL season the best way we know how – with fun and togetherness. The day will begin at 11:00 am and we will have a schedule for your shortly of the day's activities. The day will end with our Parents/Coaches vs Players game which is always a big hit.
As part of the Sean Farrell Tournament, we will be having a cookout for everyone. The ISYL will be providing hamburgers, hot dogs, sausages, rolls, condiments and sodas. We are asking families to bring salads/side dishes and/or desserts. We have assigned items for each age group. We are expecting approximately 130 - 150 people so if everyone can bring something we will have enough for all to enjoy.
U6 - Breads/Irish breads/scones
U8 - Bottled water/watermelon/fruit
U10 - Juice Boxes/paper products/plastic cutlery
U12 - brownies/cookies/dessert items
U14 - brownies/cookies/desert items
U16/18 - chips/doritos, etc
U14/16/18 Girls - salads (potato salad, green salad, etc)
Please let me know what you are planning on bringing. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. We look forward to seeing everyone on Sunday, September 26!!!

ICC Irish Festival Volunteers Needed!
Volunteer opportunities still available for all 3 days of the festival and in all capacities.
As you know the Irish Cultural Centre heavily relies on volunteers especially when it comes to events like our Annual Irish Festival. As our 20th festival quickly approaches we are in more need of volunteers than ever. Any day or time that you would be willing to donate would be greatly appreciated by not only the Centre but also the Irish community that comes out to the festival year after year. We could not implement such a great festival without the help of our volunteers, who are the lifeblood of the organization. As we are coming up on the one month countdown we are asking for any volunteers out there willing to help the Centre in any way. We will be hosting a volunteer meeting this coming Wednesday (tomorrow) at 6:30pm regarding all the opportunities still available and would very much enjoy having anyone interested in festival volunteering attend. Please RSVP to the ICC Office prior to the meeting. No matter how long or short the amount of time or day we are very happy to accept any volunteers. We look forward to hearing from you!
If you cannot attend this meeting but still wish to volunteer please contact the ICC Office at
