The former hurler of the year and Mount Sion man Austin Gleeson made special mention about Jack de Bromhead son of Henry who passed away over the weekend at just 13 years of age after a freak accident in a pony race down in Kerry. Awful news and one that no parent should have to go through.

“Firstly, I just want to send condolences from everyone in Mount Sion to Henry de Bromhead, and his family,” Gleeson told RTÉ Radio One’s Sunday Sport and quoted by balls.ie
“It was a tragic, tragic incident in Kerry. It’s a hard one to take. Everyone in Waterford will be there for them.”
The whole country is thinking of this young man that had his whole future ahead of him, very sad and we send out best to his family and friends.
RIP Jack De Bromhead. Heartbreaking 🙏
All our thoughts & prayers are with his family and friends.pic.twitter.com/l7ySvl2tVI
