Louise Maher is Kilkenny’s pool phenomenon, having won tournaments all over Ireland while also beating the best in England.
Louise has won four All-Irelands – two with Wexford and two with Kilkenny – and added a European title to her roll of honour in Malta in 2011, the only Irish women’s team to do so.
More recently Louise has been testing herself against the best in the world in the newly-formed Ultimate Pool competition. This event, which is staged over several weekends throughout the year, pits the best players in the world against each other to see who is the best in the world. Louise has won two major trophies in England. Her first trophy came in the Ultimate Pool Last Woman Standing competition in August 2023, where she beat women from all around the world. Louise recently won the Ultimate Pool Women’s Plate, beating England’s Nichola Oakes 5-0 in the final.
On behalf of all at Female Cue Sports Ireland we are delighted for Louise’s success on the Pool circuit, well deserved. Congratulations Louise
