Senior ladies set for awards recognition
Going into this season, Kilkenny’s senior camog’s had high hopes of successfully defending their title.
Brian Dowling’s charges never put together the complete 60-minute performance, and eventually came up short against the rebels of Cork.
However, the team’s efforts have not gone unnoticed, as seven players have been nominated for the Camogie Assocation’s All-Stars.
All-Ireland Senior Champions Galway lead this year’s nominations, with 12 players selected on the list.
Runners-up Cork follow closely with 10 nominations. Tipperary have 5 players shortlisted, while both Waterford and Down have one nominee each.
The awards take place at a gala banquet at the Osprey Hotel in Naas, Co. Kildare on Friday, November 26th, providing additional covid restrictions are not implemented.
