IN PICTURES: Tipp Camogie descended on All-Star Awards in a successful ceremony for the Premier

The winners of the 2023 PwC Camogie All-Star Awards were announced at a prestigious awards ceremony, in Croke Park on Saturday, 4th November. and Tipperary had three deserved winners on the night.

The event paid tribute to the outstanding achievements of the country’s top Camogie players following an exhilarating 2023 season. The event, hosted by Marie Crowe, saw Tipperary claim two PwC All-Star awards on the night with Karen Kennedy taking the Number five position with Clonoulty Rossmore star Cáit Devane chosen at corner forward in the 2023 PwC Camogie All-Star team.

It’s a second award for both Karen and Cáit who were Tipperary’s standout performers this season as we reached the All-Ireland semi-final.

Joint captain of the team in 2023, Thurles Sarsfields’ Karen Kennedy led the team and the defence from half-back all year. She had a brilliant season and Saturday’s award was a fitting tribute.

Tipperary’s leader in attack Cáit had lots of brilliant displays throughout the year especially her player-of-the-match performance against Antrim in the All-Ireland quarter-final where she scored 2-06 including a contender for goal of the season.

There were great cheers of delight from family, friends, and representatives of the Tipperary County board when both Karen and Cáit were announced as deserving winners.

The recipients of the recently announced 2023 PwC Camogie Soaring Stars also picked up their awards at the glamourous ceremony in Croke Park.

Eire Og Annacarty’s Jean Kelly was named corner forward on the team. Tipperary’s top scorer this year Jean scored all of Tipperary’s 10 goals leading up to the All-Ireland final including an amazing 5-04 against Wicklow, 3-04 against Cavan, and 2-07 against Roscommon.

Her speed and eye for goal made her a nightmare for any defender this year leading to her deserved selection on the team of the year.
