Camogie News
Deirdre O’Connor, a Leitrim native living in Nenagh and member of Nenagh Éire Óg Camogie Club & Committee is supporting Leitrim’s GAA Fundraiser this January. Leitrim supporters all around the world are running, walking or soloing 50 miles in January to get fitter but also raise funds.
Deirdre’s brother, Donncha Lynch, (Clan na Gael Club, Sydney) is one of the leaders in the Challenge. Donncha’s nieces, Róise (13) and Sailí O’Connor (10) along with their friends Grace (11) and Lucy-Anne Cleary (9), all Camogie players with Nenagh Éire Óg have been running three times a week to complete the 50 miles.
Isabel (15) and Niamh O’Connor (10), cousins of Róise and Sailí, who have recently moved to Nenagh from Panama, have also finished the 50 miles and seen and trained in frost and snow for the first time in their lives! They hope to join up with Nenagh Éire Óg Camogie Club for the upcoming season.
