O’Neill hails Sciath na Scol efforts

GAA President Liam O’Neill was on hand to recognise Sciath na Scol’s contribution to Cork GAA this week as the schools organisation was rewarded for more than 100 years of service with the Rebel Óg Monthly Award for June.

The primary schools organisation, which is in existence since 1903, was recognised for its huge contribution in developing Gaelic footballers, hurlers, ladies footballers and camogie players in the Rebel County.

Tony O’Farrell, chairman of Sciath na Scol, welcomed the award as “recognition of the efforts” of the organisation down through the years.
