Two sporting legends have been lined up for exhibitions in County Roscommon over the coming weeks.
The Coachman's Inn, Roscommon Town, will be the venue for the exhibitions that are sure to attract plenty of interest.
On Friday, April 25th, three-time world darts champion and current Sky Sports commentator, John Part, will be visiting the Roscommon Town venue for a darts exhibition where he will play 20 players.
Then, on Friday, May 30th, one of the most widely-known figures in snooker — Jimmy “The Whirlwind” White — will be in The Coachman's for a pool exhibition where he will play 25 players.
White's visit will resurrect memories of famous snooker/pool exhibitions in Roscommon Town years ago when legends of the game like Ronnie O'Sullivan, Willie Thorne, John Virgo and Ken Doherty visited the county.
