Paudie Kissane has been named as the 96/C103 Cork GAA Sports Star of the Month Award winner for March.

The Clyda Rovers defender was one of Cork's better performers in the Allianz Football League, which ended in disappointment for the Rebels when they were pipped for a semi-final place by Mayo. Kissane says Cork are now focused on next month's Munster SFC opener against Limerick.

"Over the years, we got nothing easy from Limerick, lucky to get out of the Gaelic Grounds on a number of occasions. We're looking no further than the third weekend in May, knuckling down, training hard and hoping for a win," he is quoted as saying in the Corkman.

In congratulating Paudie on his award, Cork vice-chairman Ger Lane said: "Paudie is a talented player, epitimosing all the best in Cork football. The holder of four Munster SFC and National Football League medals, All-Ireland medals in both senior and junior level, coupled with an All Star award from 2010, his ever-presence has contributed to a run of outstanding success."
