Without doubt the best-known photo from any Gonzaga
Sports Day (partly because it was published by an Irish
newspaper at the time) and probably taken by Fionnbar
Callanan, shows Tadhg Gleeson (ˋ66), aged 7 (extreme left),
winning the 80 yards sprint to beat his uncle, Eoin
O’Buachalla (ˋ65) aged 8.
The boys’ ages make a date of 1955 almost certain.
