Tributes are being paid to former Tipperary footballer, Rachel Kenneally, who has passed away at the age of 26
Kenneally represented her county in the 2013 All-Ireland Intermediate final against Cavan, playing at corner back.
She was also a Munster B Championship winner in 2009 and 2010, before playing in the National League Division 2 final in the latter year.
Current Tipperary ladies football manager, Shane Ronayne, paid tribute to the Aherlow footballer on Twitter this morning.
