Hide AdCoach Cait Passmore said: “The girls are brilliant, they train so hard and are so committeed to their camogie and their teammates. They were the ones who actually said we could win the Feile a few months ago and they are absolutely loving the hype around their county Feile win.
"They’ve grown up watching their sports models compete at All Ireland level and they’re excited to now have an opportunity of their own to compete at this level and show yonger camogs in the club what is possible.
"They’re the first camogie team in Eoghan Rua history to win the county Feile and they hope to continue making history by going one step further!
"It’s a pleasure to be involved with such a talented group of young girls and we hope that we can fundraise to make sure that this Feile creates memories that these girls will have for years to come.”
