As some of you may already know our brother, teammate and coach, James Kenny, sadly passed away after a long cancer battle in November 2023, aged just 29 years old.

James's grave is situated beside those of two of his family members who also both passed away after their own cancer battles. His auntie, Louise Kenny Queally passed in 2017 aged 41 and his grandmother Kathleen Kenny passed in 2015 aged 65.

James' father, Jimmy, has recently started a fundraising campaign named 'Jerseys4James' to raise money for the Waterford Hospital Palliative Care Unit where James spent the last few weeks of his life. To launch this campaign an event has been organised in Kilkenny on Feb 4th, where prizes including some of James' old sports jerseys will be auctioned off. For those living overseas or unable to make the event night, the campaign is also accepting donations to its Revolut account. So far in only a few weeks, the donated total has reached an impressive e5000.

Please follow the 'Jerseys4James' socials pages below and check out the videos and posts there:
