After the team’s game at the Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta in Moycullen, they went for a dip in the sea in nearby Spiddal. It was on the way back from the beach that they spotted the guy hard at work and decided to lend a hand:

Up to 30 people, including management and backroom team, pitched in until all the turf was turned.
