Round Up | Ballyseedy Volunteer Recognition Programme
24th June 2020 By The Editor
The Ballyseedy Home & Garden Volunteer Recognition Programme rewarded those working hard behind the scenes within clubs and schools throughout the province this season.
The programme acknowledged the efforts of volunteers who have devoted countless hours to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all involved with club / school rugby throughout the season.
Individuals were recognised from across the province with each volunteer rewarded with a ‘Volunteer of the Month’ award, Ballyseedy Home & Garden hamper, gift voucher and a hospitality package for two including tickets to a Munster home game.
The earlier than planned conclusion of the domestic season meant only four volunteer presentations took place this season and we look forward to the return of rugby to continue recognising the fantastic efforts of so many of our volunteers across the province.
Each of the volunteers have a unique rugby story to tell, let’s take a look back at the monthly winners from this season’s recognition programme.
