WATERFORD GAA POSTPONED today’s second county senior hurling semi-final as a mark of respect to Paul Foley.
The former county player sadly passed away this week and the fixture involving his former club Ballygunner and Fourmilewater has been put back until next Sunday.
A minute’s silence was also observed at Fraher Field before today’s semi-final clash between Tallow and Ballyduff Upper.
A former inter-county hurler and footballer with Waterford, Foley refereed colleges, minor and intermediate hurling games in Munster.
He was buried last Thursday following requiem Mass at St Mary’s Church, Ballygunner.
Meanwhile, tributes have poured in following the death of Adam Mangan over the weekend.
Mangan, 19, was regarded as one of Offaly’s brightest young talents.
He passed away following a farm accident on Saturday afternoon.
Mangan also represented the Ireland U18 rugby team.
May they rest in peace.
