Awards

The Inaugural RSA Cricket Ireland Awards took place in the Round Room at the Mansion House on November 16th in Dublin.

The awards were a celebration of this season’s cricketing achievements from International level through to grass roots, volunteers and coaches. The evening was hosted by Matt Cooper from Today FM and TV3.

300 members of the Irish cricket family made the night a great success and surely a highlight for the calender for 2013
