GALWAY’S Tim Rabbitte has been confirmed as the Lidl
Manager of the Month award for April 2019, in association with the Irish Daily
Star.
In his first season at the helm, Rabbitte guided
Galway to a first Lidl National League Division 1 Final appearance in four years,
after the Tribesmen enjoyed an impressive top-flight campaign.
Galway finished on top of Division 1, with 18 points
from a possible 21, before defeating Donegal in the League semi-final.
In the month of April, Galway won both of their
competitive fixtures, and both of them were victories against Donegal.
Galway defeated the TG4 Ulster Champions by 2-13 to
0-10 in the final round of group fixtures, before winning the Division 1
semi-final by 1-12 to 1-5.
Galway may have lost the divisional final to Cork in
early May, but Rabbitt has been acknowledged for his sterling work in getting
his team to the Parnell Park decider.
Tim was presented with his award by Marek Kozinski, Store Manager, at the Lidl Store in
Oranmore, Co. Galway.
Rabbitte and his players will now turn their
attentions towards the TG4 Connacht Senior Final against old rivals May on June
23, when the Tribeswomen will hope to retain their provincial title.
