Padraig Conlon 17 Jun 2021

IN-form Dublin forward Hannah Tyrrell has been honoured with The Croke Park/LGFA Player of the Month award for May.  

Tyrrell, 30, has been a key figure for the Sky Blues in their march to a Lidl National League Division 1 Final clash with Cork at Croke Park on Saturday, June 26.

Tyrrell marked her return to inter-county duty with Dublin by starring and scoring 1-5 against Waterford on May 23, before following up with a 2-7 haul in the victory over Cork at Páirc Uí Chaoimh six days later.

Tyrrell would add three pointed frees against Tipperary as Dublin concluded their group phase, before she registered 0-7 (4f) in the Division 1 semi-final victory over Mayo.

Hannah was presented with her award by Sean Reid, Deputy General Manager, The Croke Park.

Now playing for the Na Fianna in the capital, Tyrrell has returned to the inter-county scene for the first time since 2014.

In the interim, Tyrrell enjoyed a glittering international rugby career, before calling time on her career in the green shirt recently.

Tyrrell was an All-Ireland U16 winning goalkeeper with Dublin and she’s also the proud holder of All-Ireland minor and Senior B titles.

She was also a 2011 Dublin Intermediate Championship winner with the Round Towers, Clondalkin, club.

Hannah was presented with her award today by Sean Reid, Deputy General Manager, The Croke Park.
