Leitrim football team (LOC)

  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    This is likely a photo of the Leitrim Young Men's Society football team at the time of their Gaelic football match against Cavan in 1914.

    The New York Times reported the match as part of the Fifteenth Annual Games of Local 20, International Union of Steam and Operating Engineers, held at Celtic Park (Queens) on Sunday, July 26, 1914.

    The previous photo in the LOC stream, captioned "Cavan football (soccer) teams (LOC)" depicts the Cavan team photographed at the same time. In the background of the team Cavan photo is a Leitrim player in a striped LYM shirt, looking on.

    Is it certain this is a soccer team and not a Gaelic football ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaelic_football ) team? There are too many players for it to be soccer.
