Not only that, but anywhere that there is an athletics event in East Cork, Willie will be there, either officiating, running, videoing.....or simply helping out, whether it's a road race, cross-country, Track & Field, or a function of some sort. .....And that's only the Athletics Ireland/Cork Athletics side - you can add Schools Athletics to that, along with all the other work he does quietly!

The popular and hard-working Youghal AC man has been, literally, a dynamo ...and a driving force behind the success of athletics in East Cork for over five decades.

Willie also has the proud record of having run 39 of the 40 Ballycotton 10's, a feat only surpassed by John Walshe.

Take A Bow Willie!   .......We Know You Won't Take a Rest!!
