Tullamore full back Declan Hogan and St Rynagh’s goalkeeper and captain Conor Clancy have been named as the 2021 Offaly Senior Footballer and Hurler of the Year respectively.

The Players of the Year for both the 2021 and 2020 seasons have been announced together as the Covid-19 pandemic meant several of last year’s Championships did not conclude until this summer.

A presentation function was pencilled in for Saturday, 8th January 2022 in the Bridge House Hotel, Tullamore, but it cannot take place due to Government guidelines that are currently in place. Alternative plans will be announced by Offaly GAA as soon as possible. 

The annual awards scheme has been running for the past 20 years and, as usual, the 2020 and 2021 recipients include players from many clubs who enjoyed championship success. Where applicable, performances for club and county were taken into consideration by the selection committee. 

Former Offaly stars are inducted into the Hall of Fame each year also and they will be announced later.
