Awards for GAA club stars
With less than two weeks to go before the 2006 AIB All-Ireland Club finals in both hurling and football, today saw players from each of the four finalist clubs rewarded for their efforts throughout the season.
AIB Provincial Player awards went to first-time winners Alan Kerins (Salthill-Knocknacarra), Jerry O’Connor (Newtownshandrum), Karl Stewart (St. Gall's) and Damien Hayes Portumna) for their brilliant performances in guiding their clubs through to the Croke Park deciders.
