Máire O'Callaghan was named captain of the Cork Ladies Football team this season. Though it's a busy role, she has had plenty of support from her clubmates, including sisters Ciara and Doireann O’Sullivan, who previously held the title. 

“There is no shortage of people to keep me on the straight and narrow anyway,” she laughs.
