DINNER
DANCE 2008
Carrigaline
Camogie Club held a very enjoyable victory dinner last Saturday
night in the CarrigCourt Hotel. It was attended by over 200
players and supporters. Sean Og O'Halpín, addressing
the assembled as Gaeilge, presented medals to the U16 players
who won the county B League and Championship Double in 2007.
He reminded the players that there will be days like these,
but there will also be other days when they don’t do
quite so well. In what was his first time making presentations
to female sportspersons, he also emphasised the success that
females seem to have over their male counterparts in areas
of academia and athletics in this country. He was aided and
abetted in his presentations by the recently returned from
South America, Nicholas Murphy.
Club Chairman Tom Kiely thanked all those who trained teams
in the club during the year. In particular he thanked Marie
Scully, Tom Jones and Pat Moran for their preparation of the
U16 squad. Also there was praise for the trojan work of Paul
Buckley and Angela Egan with the under 15 squad. Adrian O'Meara
together with Pat Moran and John Middleton received awards
in recognition of their work with the senior squad.
Maria Moran, captain of the Carrigaline u16 team was presented
with an award for representing Cork at under 16B in 2007.
She very eloquently thanked the team and mentors for their
efforts. John Middleton presented Meabh Barry with the prestigious
award for U18 player of 2007 and Jan Kiernan with senior player
of the year and hoped that 2008 would bring a big effort from
the senior squad to bring fresh honours to the club.
Brian Maye announced that the recipient of the Supreme award
for 2007 was Ciarán O'Keeffe and the whole floor was
on their feet when it was jointly presented by Sean Og and
Nicholas. Also in attendance were club president Jackie O'Connor
and vice president and former player Agnes O'Reilly. County
juvenile board chairperson, Tracey Sheehan and Mary Newman
of the senior board congratulated the club and wished the
club every success in the future. A great night was enjoyed
by all.
We'd also like to especially thank our sponsors for the wonderful
prizes they sponsored for our raffle on the night.
