What is recorded here
Anthony Forde is a birthplace in Ballingarry, County Limerick, Ireland. Perhaps a boy ran barefoot across wet grass there before kicking his first match ball. Maybe the village still remembers the day he left its narrow roads for bigger pitches. Imagine his mother watching him go, knowing childhood had become a career.
