Hi all,

We've had an email looking for people who might have objects related to the history of Connacht Rugby. Email is copied below, and anyone who thinks they might be able to help out can upload photos to the website. If possible, upload the photos to this thread too, so that we can all see! If anyone is interested in bringing their object to the roadshow this weekend, get in touch with me and I can pass on the contact details. Thanks!

My name is Dave Clarke and I am getting in touch from a media production company. We’re currently producing a social history project called National Treasures. The project is a campaign to collect objects in personal possession that reveal the history of the island of Ireland over the past 100 years. You can explore the digital archive here: www.nationaltreasures.ie
Since we launched the project a couple of weeks ago it's become apparent that certain aspects of our shared history are currently under-represented or not-represented.
We would really love to uncover objects that explore the role of Connacht Rugby in our sporting history and I thought I’d reach out to see if perhaps you could help.
We are hoping that we can find someone who owns an object that tells some aspect of the story of Connacht Rugby who could come along to our roadshow in Galway City this Sunday. Would you have anyone in mind who you think could do this?
