Deirdre Hughes

She came to prominence when Toomevara won the Tipperary County Minor championship three years in a row, and won six successive senior county championships.

She won eight successive Gael Linn Cup inter-provincial medals with Munster.

Among her most dramatic scores as the equalising point against Cork two minutes into injury time of the 2001 All Ireland semi-final in Mullingar.

A prolific scorer, when she moves goal wards she causes havoc.

One of the most popular and respected of the modern day stars; she was the only current inter-county player to be chosen on the team.
