CAMOGIE huge congratulations to Clanmaurice camogie club on retaining back to back Munster Junior Titles and especially to our own Aoife Fitzgerald, Áine O’Connor, Threse Moran & Emma Lawlor. support Ballyduff and Moyvane in the Tommy Madden final. The same two teams also contested the 2017 final with Moyvane coming out on top. Moyvane looked like they were heading for their second title in as many years but Ballyduff closed the gap in the final minutes to make it all square at the end of normal time. Extra time ensued, but a stronger Moyvane side had too much to spare and ran out easy winners.
The Madden family were on hand to present the winners and runner up with their trophies. A special thanks to all who helped to out on the day.
