Club:          Burgess-Duharra

What has been the hardest thing about lockdown?
I actually found lockdown enjoyable. I was able to build myself up to run 10k.

What do you enjoy the most about being back?
Meeting people, the craic and the intensity of the game.

How did you stay motivated during the lockdown?
I suppose you knew things were eventually going to happen so you had to stay tipping away.

What are you looking forward to the most?
Playing camogie for the Summer. We've been away from it for so long it's great to be back at it.

What are your aspirations for the year ahead?
Win that All Ireland medal.

Meet the Captains

Name: Ciara Donohue
Age: 26
Club: Mullagh
Position: Backs

What has been the hardest thing about lockdown?
Not being able to see family and friends. Staying within 5k of Mullagh doesn’t get you too far
either!

What do you enjoy the most about being back?
Definitely the social aspect of it. Getting to see everyone’s faces again and train with them a is
massive boost.

How did you stay motivated during the lockdown?
Aoife and I were both lucky we had each other to train with. We knew we would hopefully be
back at some stage so we wanted to be ready for that and just took it week by week.

What are you looking forward to the most?
We missed out on championship last year, so getting back to playing competitive matches again
will be great!

What are your aspirations for the year ahead?
To try and get back to where we were in 2019.
