In a thrilling announcement, former Mucklagh FC player Ellen Dolan has been awarded the prestigious title of SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division Player of the Month for May 2024. This marks her second time receiving this accolade, with her first win being in October/November of the previous year.

Additionally, another talented player from Offaly, Aoife Murphy-O’Connor from Tullamore, has been included in the training camp for the upcoming tournament. The future looks bright for these young athletes as they aim to make their mark on the international stage.
