*Clare Hehir accepts her prize from Lending Manager with St Francis Credit Union, Dave Noble, St Francis Credit Union staff member Amy O’Donoghue a Ruan camogie player. 

LEADERSHIP and quality came to the fore when Clare Hehir produced a storming display for Inagh/Kilnamona to be named the Clare Credit Unions/The Clare Echo player of the week.

Inagh/Kilnamona’s five year wait for senior championship success was helped in no small part by Clare Hehir.

She had a huge influence on the game, scoring the goal in the dying stages of normal time which gave Inamona the lead only for Truagh/Clonlara to force extra time.

Not just was her tally of 1-4 impressive but it was the manner in which Hehir stood up to the pressure of assuming freetaking responsibilities in the absence of the injured Aoibhin Ryan and how she constantly led by example throughout the championship for her side.
