The Fermanagh Senior Hurling Team has been recognised for their Lory Meagher Cup 2024 triumph.

A reception was held in Enniskillen in their honour by the vice-chair of the Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, Councillor Elaine Brough.

Councillor Brough praised the team's campaign, which began on April 13 with a seven-point victory over Leitrim and ended with a victory over Longford on June 2 at Croke Park.

She said: "I commend each and every player for the skills you demonstrated on the pitch to win the Lory Meagher Cup but also on your commitment to training.

"Being successful as a sports team requires hours of training and this can be challenging as you have work, family and personal commitments as well."

Councillor Brough said: "I would like to commend the manager, Joe Baldwin, and the backroom team for all your work to train the players and ensure they were match fit for every game and for training."

With this victory, Fermanagh has now won the Lory Meagher Cup three times, making them one of the most successful counties in the competition's history.

They now look to the Nicky Rackard Cup.
