About this event
In 1945, as a teenager, Charlie founded the Dublin football "Street Leagues" in East Wall. It would go on to spread across Dublin and afar leading to young participants becoming professionals in England and in the League of Ireland.
Through the leagues, Charlie would become a referee climbing through the ranks to officiate in the League of Ireland.
Today Charlie O'Leary is 102 years of age. This is his story, from Johnny Cullen's Hill to the Olympic Stadium Rome.
