Kildorrery GAA Notes
Our Intermediate hurlers just did about enough to advance to the next round of the championship when they overcame a second half St. Finbarr’s rally, at Rathcormac, last Monday evening. The final score-line read Kildorrery 2-13 St. Finbarr’s 0-17. However, they can thank, in no small way the dramatic injury time save by our goalie, Ian Butler.

Our Junior hurlers lost heavily to Shanballymore, when the sides met in the Division 3 league, at the home venue, on Wednesday evening, last week. The visitors ran out easy winners on the final score-line of 4-19 to 1-14. Our team management, who, for one reason or another, had difficulty in mustering a team, eventually had sixteen players. From the throw-in, Shanballymore, look...

‘’Life’s battle doesn’t always go to the strongest or fastest man, but sooner or later the man who wins is the man who thinks he can.’’
Dogged self-belief and a real passion to play the game for what it should be got our lads over the line on Sunday playing a robust and at times attrition like football that kept us out of reach for good parts of thi...

KILDORRERY 0-12 EIRE OG 3-15
This was the disappointing result at the end of our preliminary round in the Intermediate hurling championship, played at Rathcormac, last Friday evening. However, we can take some solace in the fact that five of possibly, our first choice players were unavailable, mainly through injury and so with the back-door system in place, we can sti...

KILDORRERY 3-13 GLANMIRE 1-14
The adage “ goals win matches” certainly rang true for our Intermediate footballers, in the opening round of the Co. championship, at Castlelyons, last Sunday afternoon. From the throw-in, Kildorrery took this game by the scruff of the neck. Eventhough, Glanmire had sent over their first point within thirty seconds, Kildorrery...

KILDORRERY 1-6 KILLAVULLEN 1-10
At Ganworth, last Friday evening our Under 21C footballers were a little disappointing when, after failing to cope with Kilavullen’s second half effort, in this championship quarter- final clash, they went under on the score-line of 1-6 to 1-10. From the throw-in, Kildorrery started well and had two points on the board, before Kil...
