Seven Antrim winners at Ulster Colleges Camogie All Stars

The 2017/18 Ulster Colleges Camogie All Stars who were honoured at Friday evening’s awards dinner in the Elk.

After twice being postponed because of snow in January and February the 2017/2018 Ulster Colleges Camogie All Stars finally got their hands on their trophies when the Gala dinner was held in the Elk Restaurant on Friday night. Antrim were again well represented with seven of the twenty two recipients from Antrim colleges, but the awards were spread across the province with five from Armagh, four each from Derry and Down and two from Cavan. Cross & Passion College Ballycastle topped the list of school with four representatives, while St Catherine’s Armagh had three. The Antrim award winners were Bronagh McKeague, Cathering McShane, Maeve Kelly and Roisin McCormick from Cross & Passion, Aine Devlin and Amy Boyle from St Louis Ballymena and Emily Faloon from St Louise’s College, Belfast.

Camogie Association President Catherine Woods presented the award along with guest of honour Carla Doherty, former Geraldines Portglenone and Antrim star who delivered a fantastic speech just before the awards were handed out. Overall a great evening and one the girls will remember of their playing careers. Many will go on to win honours with club, county and University, but winning a Colleges All Star will always remain very special.
