In just a few weeks, the ‘Time2Play’ charity will present ‘A night with the 02’s’, celebrating 20 years since Armagh won their first ever All-Ireland title.
All the proceeds from the event will go towards the James Reel playpark, located inside Silverbridge GAA grounds.
James tragically lost his life last year, but the family are working hard to ensure his memory lives on.
Following on from the successful charity game between Armagh and Tyrone just before Christmas, the Reel family are pulling together another night of entertainment for Armagh fans.
