Thurles CBS’s Harty Cup and Croke Cup winning teams honoured with Civic Award
Thurles CBS Secondary School’s Dr Harty Cup and Croke Cup winning senior hurling team has been honoured by the Thurles Templemore Municipal District Council with a civic award in recognition of their outstanding achievements.
This is the highest honour the local authority can bestow upon any individual or group and Thurles CBS were thrilled to have been recognised in such a special fashion.
The awards were presented in the Templemore Arms Hotel this week with members of the CBS panel in attendance alongside management and backroom personnel – the CBS had been nominated by past pupil, Councillor Sean Ryan who was thrilled to have witnessed his alma mater doing so well during the course of the season.
The team enjoyed outstanding support across the board and when they captured only their second ever Croke Cup (All-Ireland senior College title) there was a huge outpouring of joy in Croke Park on St Patrick’s Day.
The invaluable civic awards proved to be another great celebration of so many contributions to the local communities across the District and great credit is due to the Municipal District for continuing to honour great achievements and contributions.
