Camogie chief relishing task

Newly-appointed Ard Stiúrthóír of the Camogie Association, Joan O’Flynn, is relishing the opportunity to once more play a leading role in advancing the profile of the game.

The Cork woman served as president from 2009-2012 and yesterday became the Association’s third full-time Ard Stiúrthóír following in the footsteps of Sheila Wallace and Sinéad O’Connor.

“What tempted me to return to the fray is that the position of Ard Stiúrthóír is a very unique role in Irish sport,” she said.
