Lads what does a scholarship grant include for the players?? Just interested.

i know the ladies arent members but were they approached even?

you have the likes of rena buckley a dual star for cork in ucd, surely she would be a very high profile person to tag on. they ticked the boxes with hurlers from the weaker counties at least.

As far as I know Caroline O Hanlon from Armagh ladies has some form of scholarship

Each person receives 1,000 Euro to help them with their college costs.

170 grants have been given in the 6 years of the GPA.
