Announcement

To all Liffey Valley Athletic Club members present, past and to friends and fellow competitors.

Regrettably, I share the sad news received today regarding the passing of our friend, mentor, athlete, coach and founding member Nick Davis following a short illness.

Nick has shaped the athletic experiences of so many and he has enhanced the lives of all who knew him within our own club and much further afield.

Kathryn, Fiona, Colm, and Eoin are all in our thoughts during this sad time, as is our clubmate and coach Jim.

Further details will follow regarding funeral arrangements.

You will be greatly missed by all at Liffey Valley and the expertise you sprinkled on us all will continue to shine for a long time. We are forever grateful.

Rest in Peace Nick.
