Mayo legend Cora Staunton won her 10th ladies football All Star last night, equalling the record of Kerry's Mary Jo Curran.

It was also an historic night at Dublin's CityWest Hotel for Cork dual star Briege Corkery, who became the first woman to win the TG4 ladies football Players' Player of the Year twice. The Rebelettes were rewarded for another stellar season with six All Star awards, including a first for 19-year-old Marie Ambrose.
