As a point of Historical interest Philip Monk's is the only player to hold Junior B, 
Junior A, and Intermediate Championship Medals, Philip would also be the holder of 
Junior B league 1994, Geraldine League 1998, Banner Cup 1999 and 2006, while 
a host of other Players would hold some but not all these Medals.
