Playing For Life Tanzania 2007 In co-operation with the Pallotine Fathers and the parishioners and local community of the Esso parish Playing For Life volunteers are building a much-needed Community Centre/Sports Hall. A vibrant local community group already exists in the Parish of Esso and despite its situation in a very poor slum area in Arusha the spirit and the determination of the community has to be experienced to be believed. Their desire to improve themselves and their sense of community spirit is evident all around, and assistance with building this centre will give them a much-needed boost. Playing For Life are also providing short courses to various sections of the community in areas such as basic IT training, sports and gymnastics coaching, account keeping, music and drama, and food preservation, such as jam making and pickling. Playing For Life is a registered charity and promotes self-development through education, sport & health awareness. Directors are: Tracy Piggott, Paula Murray, Robbie O'Malley, Barney Rock, Peter McCloone and Ossie Kilkenny.

That is all they needed to come away with a win that would have put them into a final and put any doubts that anyone had about these young men to rest. They were nine points down and they came fighting but just not able to maintain, they lost the game by a mere two points. These young men did what most would not be able or expected to do and play three matches in four days, surely the powers that be should be able to pace these matches out more evenly and give teams a deserving chance to catch their breath. To the bravest of them all - well done, you were all a pleasure to watch and support and gave your supporters and club some wonderful and proud hurling moments. To Ian, Liam and Martin, a big ‘Thank You’ for all the time and effort given to this team of wonderful young men.
