TWO STUDENTS from Mary Immaculate College were awarded a total of €40,000 by the Camogie Association after a ceremony in Croke Park which recognised their commitment to the sport.
The two players, Cliodhna Queally and Niamh Hally, hailing from Clare and Waterford respectively, were among seven first year students from a number of HEIs to receive bursaries.
Speaking at the presentation, Carmel Naughton said: “Friends often say ‘Carmel, why camogie?’ I am surprised that they don’t understand that down through the centuries, the sliotar and hurl have been such an important part of our national heritage.”
