Kildorrery Under 16B2 hurlers are Co. champions after a deserved 2-10 to 1-7 win over Doneraile, at Kilavullen, last Sunday afternoon. On a well prepared venue, where understandably, underfoot conditions were heavy after Saturday’s persistent rain, the game provided some entertaining passages of hurling. A disappointing aspect of this fixture was the fact that the referee...

Our Intermediate footballers never reached their full potential when going under to a better Kanturk side in the Co. Championship semi-final, at Charleville, last Saturday afternoon. At the end of a somewhat one-sided hour’s football Kanturk qualified on the score 0-19 to 2-6, to meet Mitchelstown in the Final. From the throw-in, Kildorrery struggled to contain...

This was the undeserved result of our Championship game versus Aghada, played at Rathcormac, last Saturday evening. Ironically, Kildorrery played their best hurling of this season and certainly could not be faulted for effort. The unfortunate and dubious red-carding of our outstanding centre-back, Michael Walsh,...

For various reasons, Kildorrery were forced to field a depleted side, with the selectors having just fifteen players available. Our boys got off to a good start and in fact,...

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.

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...
