A new secretary of Clare Camogie has been elected following a historic AGM.

Ann Sanz of the Banner Club defeated Tulla’s Ciaran Sheehan in a vote to become secretary of the County Board. She will replace Marie-Louise Kaiser with the Newmarket-on-Fergus woman remaining in the role of Fixtures Secretary. Kilkishen’s Billy Murphy succeeds Dervilla Moloney in the only other change to the Executive.

Monday’s annual general meeting was a historic one becoming the first county sporting AGM to be held virtually.

Outgoing secretary, Marie-Louise Kaiser told the meeting she was looking forward to concentrating solely on fixtures following the completion of a plan which took six years. A presentation was made to Marie-Louise by Denise Brookes in recognition of her contribution while Chairperson Joe O’Donnell remarked, “every time I see what you are doing I get tired, you are doing so much”.
