Katrina's looks can boost camogie, says mother
July 18, 2013
Katrina Parrock's mother has urged the Camogie Association to use the player's good looks to promote the sport.
The mother of Wexford star Katrina Parrock has urged the Camogie Association to use the player's good looks to promote the sport.
Liz Parrock made the call after the three-time All-Ireland winning forward was captured by the RTE cameras entering the pitch in a pair of denim shorts to give a team-mate water during Wexford's clash with Kilkenny in Nowlan Park last weekend. Katrina was unable to play due to a broken arm, but it would seem she still made quite an impression with viewers and has picked up hundreds of male admirers as a result.
"Katrina is known for her skill and prowess on the field foremost, but that doesn't mean she can't also be looked upon as pleasant looking," Liz said in the Irish Sun.
"The Camogie Association have a great marketing tool at their hands, and I'm surprised that corporate companies like Luzocade and the likes haven't take them on board.
"Some people might say it's not the right attention, but if it promotes camogie in a positive light, it is okay by me."
