Leinster Camogie Convention 2014 - Saturday 17 January 2015

The Leinster Camogie Convention 2014 will take place in the Offices of Áras Laighean, Portlaoise (HQ of the Leinster GAA Council) at 13.00 on Saturday 17 January 2015.    Apart from the normal business of convention there is likely to be much interest in the election of the Chair-elect to take over from Wexford's Rachel Hogan in 2016.  The position will be contested by Pat Martin, current Chair of the Dublin Camogie Board and Richard Mulholland, a former Chair of the Kilkenny Camogie Board.
