Cork Con’s Conor Kindregan scoops Player of the Year award

Cork Constitution’s Conor Kindregan was last night named as the Ulster Bank Player of the Year for Division 1A, cushioning the blow of losing the final to Clontarf.

In total, 12 players were recognised at the Ulster Bank League awards at Aviva Stadium, with five winners coming from Munster clubs, while Cork man and Lansdowne out-half Scott Deasy scooped the award for Division 1A’s top kicker.

Kindregan, who has been involved with Connacht in the past, may well be attracting the eyes of the provinces once again after an impressive season in the second row, as Cork Con made it back to the All-Ireland League final for the first time since 2011.
