Presentation Night
On Friday 5th February we held our annual presentation night in Quinn’s Corner. With having had such a terrific 2015, there was a very full trophy table and lots of awards to be presented.
Chairperson Brenda Horsfield got proceedings underway welcoming all the players in attendance along with their family and friends, and also extended a warm welcome to the senior manager Martin Curry and special guest for the night, Cork Camog and All Star winner, Jen Curry.
Guest speaker Jen Curry, who has had an extremely successful sporting career with Cork Camogie, winning several All Irelands and selected four times for an All Star, took the microphone and emphasized the importance of playing a team sport for the development of young girls. How it creates and molds character as well as being a sport you can play together with all your friends.
