All Ireland Cups on Tour

What a hectic week it was for the All Ireland camogie team and their All Ireland cups since they captured the All Ireland Intermediate Title last week in Croke Park. Caithriona McGlone was kept busy since Thursday of last week as an invited guest to various events that occurred in Lismore/ Melleray and Cappoquin.

On Thursday Caithriona visited the GAA field in Lismore where there was training for U8 and U10 camogie girls where the young girls got the opportunity to hold the All Ireland cups. On Thursday morning the cups and Caithriona were invited to a coffee morning in aid of Hospice where many people of the town were thrilled to see the cups and Caithriona.

On Friday Caithriona along with Cappoquin team mates Aisling Power, Lorraine Bray and Jenny McCarthy had a very busy day visiting local schools in the area, i.e Scoil Mochuda Lismore, Bun Scoil Bhóthar Na Naomh Lismore ,Scallywags Crech/Playschool Lismore, followed by a visit to the \Primary School in Cappoquin. Padre Pio rest home also had the pleasure of the cups on display along with St. Carthages rest home in Lismore.

Caithriona and the girls also visited the Blackwater Community school on Friday morning and again that evening were invited back for the academic awards night. Following this Melleray Community invited all six local girls to an organised event for the girls.

Saturday night the girls and the cups were invited to another fundraising event in aid of the Hope Foundation held in The Red House Lismore. 

All in all both young and old in the area got great pleasure in the All Ireland win which created great excitement as another little bit of history was created, and which is also great for the profile of camogie in the area. Well done to Caithriona and her team mates who are great ambassadors for camogie.
