The council in Monaghan paid tribute to its own athletes during the week when a civic reception was accorded to three World Champions and a football team. Attending the reception were Padraig McKenna and Darren Doherty, students at St McCartan’s College, who between them won three World Handball Champion titles in Portland Oregon this year, along with Shane Murphy from Smithboro, who holds a World Boxing title. The Local Authority also honoured the members of the Donaghmoyne Senior Ladies’ football team who this year won the All-Ireland final for the second time in four seasons.
