THE Camogie Association’s Annual Congress was held on Saturday, 28th March in the Canal Court Hotel, Newry.
During proceedings, Uachtarán Brian Molloy spoke about the integration of the three Gaelic games Associations: “Ní neart go cur le chéile. Together, we are stronger. If we work together, with purpose, with openness, and with belief, we can deliver something transformative for our members and for our collective future.
“Let us grasp this opportunity, commit fully to the journey ahead, and ensure that when future generations look back, they will thank us for the decisions we make now.”
Meanwhile, Ailish Whitty has been declared as Uachtarán Tofa an Chumainn Camógaíochta, having ran unopposed.
