Mourneabbey’s O’Sullivan on short-list for Player of Year

CORK football team captain Ciara O’Sullivan, who will line out for Mourneabbey in their forthcoming All-Ireland Senior Club semi-final, is one of three players on the short-list for the TG4 Players’ Senior Player of the Year award, which will be announced next month.

O’Sullivan has been rewarded for her excellent and consistent performances with Cork this year, but she is in good company with All-Ireland winners Sinéad Aherne and Lyndsey Davey also nominated.

The winner - along with the intermediate and junior recipient - will be revealed at the 2018 TG4 All-Star Awards Banquet, in association with Lidl, which will be held at the Citywest Hotel on Saturday, December 1.

The nominees in all three categories have been selected by their fellow players, who could not vote for their own team-mates. All three of the senior Players’ Player of the Year nominees are also nominated for All Star awards.

Meanwhile, Mourneabbey’s All Ireland Senior Club Championship semi-final against Kilkerrin/Clonberne from Galway has been fixed for Sunday, November 18 at the Clonberne Sports Field at 1pm . The other semi-final sees

Foxrock Cabinteely from Dublin play Donaghmoyne from Monaghan the same day.
