'I actually prayed before I took that free': Gill and Donohue on a highly sought-after club All-Ireland

Gill landed the final score from a pressure-free position in the fifth minute of second-half stoppage time in their dramatic 0-14 to 0-12 victory over St Finbarr’s; they outscored their opponents seven points to one in the fourth quarter.

Two stalwarts of the Athenry camogie club celebrated a significant achievement in FBD Semple Stadium on an emotional Saturday evening. 

For 44-year-old Therese Donohue (formerly Maher) and 36-year-old Jessica Gill, they won their first All-Ireland senior club title. Both are mothers to three children.
