  Basketball in Ireland ???

  They used to play netball if that's the same thing? The shot is in Sisters of Charity Convent Lady Lane and Spring Garden Alley Waterford

  desmondg47 Wondering if you're right about the netball! Might be a faulty description in our catalogue...

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Checked in the Irish Newspaper Archive and basketball is reported as a functioning sport in Ireland from 1945 onwards... (Volleyball from 1965, and Netball from 1935.)
