ALL-IRELAND CHAMPIONS Cork were the big winners at last night’s Camogie All-Stars awards night, sponsored by Liberty Insurance, at Citywest last night with nine players named in the All-Star team.
Jennifer O’Leary and Gemma O’Connor both earned their eighth All-Stars while team-mates Rena Buckley, Briege Corkery, Eimear O’Sullivan, Joanne O’Callaghan, Orla Cotter, Katriona Mackey and Aoife Murray were also rewarded after an excellent year.
Finalists Kilkenny picked up three — Collette Dormer, Anne Dalton and Michelle Quilty — and Clare’s Máire McGrath, Galway corner-back Sarah Dervan and Wexford’s Ursula Jacob completed the XV.
Limerick’s Joe Quaid was named Manager of the Year while Ireland Women’s rugby captain Fiona Coghlan was guest of honour on the night.
“Congratulations to this year’s All-Stars and Soaring Star recipients, whose exploits on the field of play have earned them an accolade, which is highly valued by all players,” said President of the Camogie Association Aileen Lawlor.
The All-Stars are a national recognition of the skill, athleticism, dedication and sportsmanship of our players, who have thrilled and delighted supporters with their displays during another superb championship season.

“I also want to congratulate Joe Quaid, Manager of the Year, who, following the heartbreak of last year’s All-Ireland final defeat, guided his team back to Croke Park, eventually claiming a much sought after All-Ireland title.
“I want to commend all of this year’s nominees and recipients and also thank our sponsors Liberty Insurance for their support for this prestigious event.”
