CLARE attacker Fidelma Marrinan has been honoured with The Croke Park/
LGFA Player of the Month award for May 2023.
The 23-year-old forward, from the West Clare Gaels club, has been in
stunning form in 2023 and she's played a key role in the Banner County's
march to a TG4 All-Ireland Intermediate semi-final against Antrim on Sunday
July 23.
As Clare progressed through the group phase, Fidelma notched 0-7 in the
opening round win against Offaly, 2-9 in victory over Wicklow, and 0-3 as the
Munster outfit drew with Tyrone.
Clare moved safely into the knockout phase and Marrinan was superb in
victory against Westmeath last Sunday, collecting 2-9.
Earlier this year, Marrinan collected 1-6 in the Lidl National League Division
3 Final against Kildare, with Clare losing out narrowly after extra-time.
With a total haul of 4-28 to date, Fidelma currently sits second behind
Down's Natasha Ferris in the race for the 2023 ZuCar Golden Boot, which will
be awarded to the highest scorer in the 2023 TG4 All-Ireland series across the
Senior, Intermediate and Junior grades.
Fidelma was presented with her Player of the Month award this afternoon by
Ina Lazar, Sales Manager, Croke Park.
