MANAGER David Sullivan was pleased for his players to get some silverware and fuel the rebuild of camogie in Offaly, after they overcame a spirited Derry by 4-13 to 0-10 in the Very Camogie League Division 2A final in Thurles on Sunday. It seems like more or less everything is on the up and up in the land of the Faithful, with even the county’s folk hero, Shane Lowry flying the flag on a patch of green grass in Augusta.

Offaly 4-13 Derry 0-10 By Daragh Ó Conchúir First cousins Mairéad Teehan and Grace Teehan showcased all her talents, scoring 2-4 each as Offaly’s goal threat proved too much for Derry, enabling the Midlanders to claim the Very Camogie League Division 2 title and earning promotion to the Division 1B next year.

David Sullivan was pleased for his players to get some silverware and fuel the rebuild of camogie in Offaly, after they overcame a spirited Derry by 4-13 to 0-10 to take the Division 2A title. This was a targeted step up the ladder. “There’s a lot of work gone into this since last November,” said Sullivan. “We’ve really gone after this competition. We really wanted it. There’s no point in saying anything different and it’s great the work has come to fruition today.
