FAMILY, friends and partners of the Clare hurling panel and management were joined by proud supporters at The InterContinental in Dublin for their All-Ireland final victory banquet last Sunday night.
Clare captain Tony Kelly was announced as man of the match from the banquet as The Sunday Game crossed over to the five star hotel in Dublin 4. In between the wining and dining, Sixmilebridge native Marie Crowe, the RTÉ broadcaster and sister-in-law of Clare coach Brendan Bugler acted as MC.
Politicians and senior officials of Clare County Council were among those in the attendance at the hotel which has Clare native, Nicky Logue of Bunratty serving as its General Manager.
The Clare Echo’s Gerard O’Neill was the only photographer on duty at the event where he captured the celebrations.
