This was the inaugural meeting of the Athy & District Open Coursing Club held on St. Valentine’s day 1988 at Boherbaun, Co. Kildare, the famed running ground over which the White Cup was contested in the late 1800s. It was a great meeting with a very large crowd and wonderful coursing.

Tom Cox judged the meeting and Tom Murphy performed the slipping duties.
