Dublin Camogie have today announced a brand new exciting partnership with Philly McMahon and his company BeDo7.

Philly and his company will be in charge of the strength and conditioning of all Dublin Camogie squads from U14 to Adult that will formally commence in the middle of this month.

Speaking at the launch Dublin Camogie Chairperson Jenny Byrne was deloghted to have Philly and his company involved with Camogie in the capital.

“As Chairperson of the Dublin Camogie Board I am thrilled that Philly has come on board with Dublin Camogie. He sees the great potential within Dublin Camogie to win All-Ireland’s," said Jenny.

“In conjunction with Philly, the Dublin Executive have decided to put a structure in place where strength and conditioning is paramount in our training.  It’s also about educating our players about injury prevention and having the right mindset as female athletes.”

Philly McMahon expressed his excitement and optimism about the new partnership and explained why he got involved: “I seen the opportunity to get involved to try support the great volunteers that are part of Dublin Camogie, I always wanted to get involved with a team giving 100% commitment into something and what better than Dublin Camogie, it’s the county I love so why not get involved in it.

“When I first met Jenny and the committee I sensed that they had an open-mindedness to my ideas and I think that was the big thing for me, I wanted to get involved and I had the company so it was – can I get involved with a group of people that I can learn from but also be expressive in my ideas.

“The committee as I said are very open to new things and you got to do new things to create success, we can’t keep doing the same things and expecting different results so I think it’s a great fit, I think it’s an exciting opportunity and I am really looking forward to seeing how it goes.”
