“Powerade’s aim is to help a club achieve its goals for 2008,” said Aengus King of Powerade. “The winning team will have a group of mentors placed at their disposal in areas of training, nutrition and motivation. They will also be filmed for a series of TV ads that will run throughout the year and put the winning club in the public eye as never before”.

“Munterconnaught put forward a great case as to why they should be chosen as our team to follow over the next twelve months. They are full of heart and passion, and are a great advertisement for the GAA”
