The image captures the legendary Willie John McBride, renowned for his exceptional skills in both Irish and British Lions rugby teams. Standing tall in the back row, he exudes confidence and determination that made him a force to be reckoned with on the field. Flanking McBride on either side are two remarkable women who played pivotal roles in launching the Kilkeel Harbour Festival - Barbara Montgomery and Sue Martin.

McBride's infectious smile radiates joy as he holds a tankard trophy, symbolizing his numerous victories throughout his illustrious career.
