The father of the young camogie player who died in an accidental collision in a match earlier this week said she was a “shining light” who was “very easy to love.”

Her father Cathal Moran, a former Athenry and Galway hurler, was at the match in Athenry when his eldest child was injured on Monday evening. “I won’t say much more about that terrible evening, I think of our beautiful Kate who we loved so dearly. “She was awful, awful fond of you, TJ, and I’m sorry if I got in your way some evenings. I know when I would come home in the evening, I’d be asking you about hurling, and I’d take up a good bit of your time!”

“She was a really lovely hurler and I don’t mind saying that. We wouldn’t be boastful and Kate wouldn’t be boastful — maybe we might boast between each other! — but not outside that. She had beautiful wrists and I used to love the way she used to hit the sliotar, getting that sort of trajectory.” Mr Moran said Kate would always be part of their family but they just did not know how they were going to cope with her loss.
