Joint Tipperary camogie captains named for National League


Grace O'Brien of Nenagh Éire Óg and Julieanne Bourke of Borris-Ileigh have been named as the Tipperary senior camogie joint-captains for this year's National League.
The north Tipp duo have been main stays in the teams for the last number of years under Bill Mullaney, and the Ballinahinch man has rewarded their consistency.
Tipperary face Down in the opening round of Division 1 on Saturday afternoon in the Ragg, with the game throwing in at 2pm.
Elsewhere, the Tipperary junior camogie team are also playing in the National Camogie League Division 2 tomorrow against Kilkenny in Freshford at 2pm, while on Sunday, the Tipperary minor team are out in the Tesco All-Ireland Minor A Championship against Limerick in Kilmallock at 2.30pm.
