De La Salle Camogie Club, Co Waterford were crowned as winners of Liberty Insurance’s ‘Camogie Made Us’ competition, hosted at half-time of the Liberty Insurance All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship Final in Croke Park.
The Waterford City based Camogie club, led by coach Charlotte Brenner Snr, took home €7,000 in prize money.
Brenner Snr was selected as finalists from a total of 249 entries, and in front of a record crowd of 24,730, led De La Salle out onto the pitch at half-time of the Senior Camogie Championship Final to compete in a one-off skills challenge.
Both De La Salle and fellow finalists Bredagh GAC served up a nail-biting contest, the lead switching on a number of occasions, before a final surge at the finish, giving the Waterford team the victory, much to the delight of their travelling fans.
