Success for St. Sinchill’s Camogie Club Jersey Design Competition

Earlier this season, St. Sinchill’s Camogie Club ran an art competition in four local primary schools to design a new jersey for their U6/ Nursery group of players.

The club were amazed at all of the fantastic entries received, and have extended a huge thanks to the school Principals and staff of the four schools for promoting the competition with their students.

After deliberations and a committee vote, a runner- up was chosen from each school.

Congratulations to the following students who were presented with their prize of a St. Sinchill’s t-shirt and a club crested sliotar recently:

Ben Mathews, from Scoil Shinchill, Killeigh;

Caoilfhionn Gorman, from Naomh Mhuire, Cloneygowan;

Cathal Cuskelly, from Scoil Sheomsamh Naofa;

Abbie Coughlan, from Scoil Na Croise Naofa, Geashill.

The overall winning art design went to Mia Carthy from Naomh Mhuire, Cloneygowan.

Mia’s jersey was chosen for its child friendly design and the committee loved how the club colours, club crest and camogie crest were included with such detail.

On Saturday, our nursery group had the honour of welcoming Mia to their Saturday morning session in Raheen GAA, with club GPO Emer.

On the morning, Mia’s jersey was unveiled, and Mia was presented with her own replica jersey.

The U6 group then played a match wearing the new jerseys and enjoyed some treats.

The club extend a big thank you to Mia for joining them, noting how it was lovely to see the future camogie and hurling stars wearing the new jerseys and we look forward to seeing the jerseys on the playing field for many years to come.

St. Sinchill's nursery sessions, in collaboration with all the clubs in the parish, continue on Saturday mornings at 9.30am.
