A homecoming event for the Galway Senior Camogie team will take place at Clarinbridge GAA grounds this evening (Monday ). Gates will open from 6pm.
The event will provide supporters from across the county with an opportunity to welcome home captain Carrie Dolan, manager Cathal Murray, the players, management and backroom team following yesterday’s All-Ireland Senior Camogie Final at Croke Park.
The homecoming event is being organised by Galway Camogie and Clarinbridge GAA, with the support of Galway County Council.
Cllr Michael Regan, Leas Cathaoirleach of the County of Galway, said yesterday that the team had given the county every reason to be proud.
“Despite today’s disappointment, this team has represented Galway with immense pride, showing the resilience, skill and determination that are the hallmark of Galway camogie,” he added.
“Reaching a sixth All-Ireland Final in eight years reflects the strength of the game across our county.”
Chief Executive of Galway County Council, Liam Conneally, said the players’ achievements deserved to be recognised.
“Reaching another All-Ireland Final reflects years of commitment and investment in Galway camogie,” he asserted. “It is a tribute to the players and management, as well as the volunteers, coaches, parents and clubs who have built such strong foundations for the game.
“These players have been outstanding ambassadors for Galway and have inspired future generations. We encourage supporters from across the county to join us in Clarinbridge and thank the team for the pride and enjoyment they have brought to Galway throughout the championship.”
