22:20 Paige of Na Loachar, Camogie Team

We pulled Paige, part of Na Laochar, from the Ya Jagoff Sports Zone at Pittsburgh Irish Fest to talk about Camogie! Her team just won the Junior B National Championship! Camogie is an Irish stick-and-ball team sport played by women; it is almost identical to the game of hurling played by men. And organized by the Dublin-based Camogie Association. Paige tells us how the game is played and how anyone interested can join the game. No experience necessary.
