Council ceremony honours Clare’s 1995 heroics

The feats of Clare’s 1995 All-Ireland winning hurlers were honoured at a Clare County Council-organised civic reception held this week.

The event was held, at the behest of several councillors, to mark the 20th anniversary of Clare’s All-Ireland final win over Offaly. Earlier that summer, Clare won their first Munster hurling title since 1932, bridging a 63-year gap.

Clare beat Limerick in the 1995 Munster final in Thurles, following heavy defeats in the 1994 and 1993 finals.
