As part of their fundraising events for two under-14 club players, Aoife and Emma, who are currently undergoing serious treatments for brain tumours, Athenry Football Club launched their final event, a Galabid jersey auction this week, to help reach their final target and alleviate the financial pressure related to travel, treatment and recovery for both families.
On the Galabid website (click HERE), there are many souvenir and collectable jerseys up for auction, with all funds raised going towards Aoife and Emma. They include:
- Two framed and signed Ireland jerseys. One from 94’ Jackie’s Army and one from the present-day squad which includes Troy Parrot’s signature.
- Also on offer for all the Liverpool fans is an authenticated signed Trent Alexander-Arnold jersey from the 20/21 season.
- Lastly, we have a signed Galway United Jersey from the 2024 season on offer.
The auction opened last Monday (23rd March 2026) and will run until April 13th.
Athenry FC's fundraising initiative chairperson Anne Walshe joined Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly on 'Over The Line' to tell us more and about Aoife and Emma.
