The Ruan under 18 camogie team won the Minor B final on Saturday, Sept. 10, beating Broadford/Parteen, in a very exciting game played in Fr. McNamara Park. The cup was presented by Joe O’Donnell, Clare Camogie Chairman. The girls and their mentors were welcomed back, as they travelled through Toonagh and into Ruan, by a bonfire with supporters showing their appreciation for the hard work and dedication they’ve put in over the season. The Junior C team played Eire Og in the semi final of the championship on Saturday, coming away victorious. The Junior A team played Inagh/Kilnamona on Sunday in the final round and they also came away with a win. With a final and semi-final to prepare for, the girls will be busy training in the build up to those gamesover the next few weeks. Ciara Punch, Tara Moroney and Cliona Jones, who had played with the under 18s who took the Minor B title were out early on Sunday, Sept. 11, representing their Club with Clare Camogie. They were divided up between two Clare teams, one of which took home the Division 2 title in a game in Kilkenny. The other game was played in Abbotstown, Dublin. Despite having played on the Saturday, the girls did the local club proud, playing their games with great enthusiasm in terrible weather conditions. Cash for Clobber. Toonagh N.S.
