Sir, – How refreshing to see such excellent coverage of women and sport, across three codes, in your edition on Monday (January 7th).

A superb eye-catching picture of the Dublin camogie squad and the welcome news story about Katie Taylor defending her European title in front of home fans graced the front page. Fionnuala Britton’s achievements in the Great Edinburgh Cross Country were well covered in the sporting pages. Warrior women, all! Bravo for editorial choices that make these stories, of our lives as women, more visible to a wider public. – Yours, etc,
