Ellis blazes trail for Millstreet

Mark Ellis takes the field for Cork in tomorrow’s Munster SHC clash with Waterford as a representative of Millstreet, a long-standing Gaelic football stronghold in the Rebel County.

The north Cork club has supplied plenty of players to the county’s footballers, but Ellis is their first member to play championship hurling for Cork.

“There’s been a lot of work done at underage in the club,” says Millstreet club secretary Sharon Lane.
