North Tipperary GAA Presentations
There was a large attendance at the North Tipperary GAA Awards night in The Thatched Cottage in Ballycommon last Saturday where Seamus Quigley, Mary Hogan and Art Flannery collected the North Tipperary Club of the Year award on behalf of the club after what was a great year in claiming the North, Under 21 ‘A’ and Minor ‘A’ North titles as well as reaching the North Intermediate final .
Well done to Dan O'Meara (North U21 Hurler of the Year) and Paul Flynn (North Senior Hurler of the Year) and Sean Hayes (North Minor 'A' Hurler of the Year – Sean’s mother Claire accepted the award on his behalf) who collected their awards on the night. A big well done to Paul who was also named Overall North Hurler of the Year for 2019 after a stellar year at full forward for the Kiladangan seniors where he scored 2-15 from play in the North Championship.
