THE Ladies Gaelic Football Association is pleased to announce details of the inaugural LGFA Volunteer of the Year awards. 


Administrators, coaches and media are among those who will be honoured across seven categories, and the awards will be presented at Croke Park on Saturday, February 17.


This new LGFA scheme will recognise winners from 2017 in the following categories:

• Committee Officer of the Year
• Club Coach of the Year
• Youth Volunteer of the Year
• School Coach of the Year
• PRO (Public Relations Officer) of the Year
• Local Journalist of the Year

The Overall Volunteer of the Year will receive the Lulu Carroll award, named after the late Lulu Carroll, who was a 2001 All-Ireland senior medallist with Laois.


Lulu, who passed away in 2007, was a committed servant to Ladies Football at club and county levels, and one of the game’s most popular and well-known figures.


Lulu, a former All-Star recipient, also won eight Leinster titles with Laois, along with six county senior titles and a provincial crown at club level with Timahoe.
