Chairperson's Address

Patrickswell Camogie club has been well represented in the Camogie circles around limerick now for over 50 years. Our first success on the playing field was in 1956 where we brought home our First County Title. This team disbanded some years later but many local girls continued to play with other clubs and also played with limerick on many occasions.

It was from this strong Camogie background that the present club was set up on March 16th 1983. First officers of the club were as follows, Chairperson, Phil Mann, Secretary Rose Kelleher and Treasurer Birdie Enright. Chairman of the Senior Club, Timmy O Neill invited the Camogie Club to the next Senior club meeting on 6th April, where it was ratified that the we would become a club within the Senior Club and we were promised financial support, help with training and the running of the club. This was a huge step for the Camogie Club, many of our sister clubs are in awe of how we are supported and respected within our Senior Club.

Over the next 26 years are club has gone from strength to strength reaching many county finals at all ages groups and being successful on many occasions. We currently field teams from U10 level right up to Intermediate, and down through the years we have had many players representing us on various county teams, most notably Christine Carroll who won 2 all Ireland minor medals.

Over the years the club has had many representations on the county board, the most notable being Claire O’Herlihy (RIP). Claire was county board secretary and did Trojan work for the club and county.

We are proud in Patrickswell Camogie club of our family atmosphere, we all play huge part in keeping the club alive in the village, every club member plays a role in the club, and no role is too small – every little helps, From Club officers, Management teams, past and current players, and parents – I thank you for your constant support and I look forward to bringing many more titles to Patrickswell.

Is mise Le Meas,
