Enniskerry GAA have issued an update on the condition of players injured in a bus fall incident yesterday.
The club released a statement on social media over the incident that saw nine rushed to hospital.
Nine were injured in the fall from the top of a lorry at around 6.30pm on Saturday in Enniskerry village, Co Wicklow.
Footage shows the celebrants holding a trophy and jumping up and down before falling from the back of the truck.
And Enniskerry GAA have today confirmed that none of the injuries suffered in the incident were life-threatening, although some members of the team will require surgery.
A spokesperson wrote on Facebook: "A quick update; yesterday evening on what was to be a long awaited day of celebrations, unfortunately, an accident occurred in the village as the men’s team celebrated their JBFC win resulting in 9 members of Enniskerry GAA team being admitted to St Vincent’s and Tallaght Hospital.
"Thankfully all the lads are doing ok, 3 were sent home in the early hours of this morning, another 2 have been sent home earlier today with another expected this evening leaving 3 remaining in Vincent’s. No injuries are life threatening however some do require surgery.
"Although it was under the worst circumstances we ever could have imagined, last night proved what a great village and community we have around us. We have many thanks to pay which we will do in the coming days but for the moment we would ask for respect and privacy for all involved.
"On a brighter note, we cannot forget the reason why the team was celebrating last night. In the last four years, this team has reached three finals and one semifinal, losing three of the four matches by just 1 point.
"Yesterday we saw our black & amber army beat Avoca by 6 points to finally take home that championship cup to our village.
"Thankfully all injured will pull through this and the team are under strict instructions from Barto to make sure they finally have a drink out of that cup later this evening!!"
