The Nemeton production team are working hard this week in preparation for the inaugural Bord Gáis Energy Team of the Year Award Ceremony which will be televised live on TG4 on Saturday, 12th October at 8.30pm
This hour long broadcast hosted by TG4 presenter Micheál Ó Domhnaill will look back over the 2013 Bord Gáis Energy U-21 Hurling Championship with contributions from current and former U-21 players and managers.
The highlights of the ceremony will include the Team of the Year announcement, as well as the Bord Gáis Energy Player of the Year award that will be presented in both the ‘A’ and the ‘B’ championships.
Fans of the championships have also been having their say by casting their votes for the ‘Bord Gáis Energy Score of the Year Award’ on the Bord Gáis Energy U-21 Hurling’s Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages. The winners of this award will also be announced live on the night.
Speaking recently, Ger Cunningham, sports ambassador at Bord Gáis Energy said, “It’s a fantastic way to finish up what has been a championship full of excitement, passion and hurling of the highest quality. To narrow the list down to forty-five players was a mammoth task and we now have to finalise the final fifteen which is not going to an easy task.
“It will no doubt be a wonderful night for all involved and Bord Gáis Energy is delighted to be involved in recognising the best young hurlers in 2013.”
