County and Munster champions, Scariff/Ogonnelloe lead the way with seven representatives on the team followed by beaten finalists Truagh/Clonlara with three, 2020 winners Inagh/Kilnamona and reigning Senior B champions Feakle/Killanena have two players each selected with semi-finalists Kilkishen/Bodyke earning one spot on the side.
Joint captain of the Scariff/Ogonnelloe side, Amy Barrett was named as the Player of the Year for 2021, the previous year’s winner had previously been announced as Clare Hehir of Inagh/Kilnamona.
A nice tribute to the Scariff Bay’s coverage of camogie was recently issued by Scariff/Ogonnelloe who included the community radio station’s logo and emblem as the main feature of their away jersey.
