Club notes & fixtures 26 September 2025

 

A huge congratulations to our senior hurlers who have reached this year’s final after a hard fought win over a tenacious Kilmaley team, the lads dug deep and showed great resolve to see off the challenge. The final has been fixed for Sunday, October 5th at 3.30pm in Zimmer Biomet Páirc Chíosóg. More on the County Final below.

 

We had a mixed bag of results on Sunday, with our Intermediate hurlers losing out on a semi final spot after a one point loss to Ogonnelloe, the lads have had a tremendous year at intermediate and will return stronger next year. Our senior ladies had a resounding win over Miltown in their relegation decider as had our Junior C hurlers in their final round game v Tulla.

 

Back to the present where we have 2 semi finals and a quarter final for our adult team this weekend. On Saturday our intermediate camogie team travel to Clooney in their bid for a spot in the final at 2.45pm and at 4.30pm our Senior footballers take on Lissycasey in Cusack Park. Onto Sunday when our Junior B Premier footballers play Doonbeg in a quarter final at 12pm in Lissycasey.

 

While the Saturday schedule is tight, please make the effort to get to both games as the encouragement from the sideline means so much to the teams in their efforts to get over the line.

Academy

 

Our U10 footballers travelled to St. Jude’s in Dublin last Sunday to take part in their mini All-Ireland Festival. We had 38 players, coaches and parents make the trip up. Our lads were highly competitive and won a shield competition ensuring a nice piece of silverware returned to the club with them, the shield was proudly brought to Ennis National School for a visit this week. Thanks to Sinead and all the coaches for organising the trip, such a great day out for the kids.

 

Also on Sunday, our U7 hurlers took part in a mini blitz hosted by Inagh Kilnamona, with teams from Corofin, Kilmaley and Clonbony also participating. Fab weather and plenty of fun and games for our lads. Thanks to Inagh Kilnamona for organising.
