Sympathies are extended to the family of Honorary Vice President Jack McGrath on his passing - to his daughters Theresa, Mary, Rita and Angela who all played camogie and his granddaughters Ciara, Lorna, Jayne, Joanne and Clare and current players Emma, Cara, Sian and Cassie. Sympathy to his son and great club supporter Kieran and to current player and grandson Stephen.
