Armagh rugby’s full-back, Johnny Steenson, has been honoured as KUKRI player of the month. Johnny has worn the number 15 jersey for the city side for some seven seasons. He has achieved top club scorer at least three of these seasons.

In fact, seldom a game passes that Johnny fails to score both through his boot and by touch-down.

In fact he scored Armagh’s third try on Friday evening against Omagh and added another three conversions to bring his evening’s contribution to 11 points.

Johnny has scored tries, conversions and penalties in almost every game he has played for Armagh rugby.

His loyalty and scoring contribution to the team has been exemplary since he was first selected for the team.

The only other Armagh player to receive this award was James Morton in season 2003/04.
