Claughaun club notes

Junior Hurling:

 

Our junior hurlers booked their place in the last four of the championship with a superb extra time win over Templeglantine in Mick Neville Park on Saturday last. Our opponents had the better start, racing into a 3 point lead before we registered our first score of the game. We trailed by a single point at the first water break and Templeglantine would extend that lead to three points at the half time break. The second half saw us up the intensity greatly and we quickly began to chip away at the deficit. We eventually took the lead until a late surge from Templeglantine saw them take a one point lead into injury time. The task of levelling the encounter then fell to Darren Kenihan, who shot a fantastic long range effort from corner back to leave the tie deadlocked at the final whistle, 0-15 to 0-15. The first period of extra time was as tit-for-tat as normal time and the possibility of a penalty shootout grew, with the sides level once again at the break. The final ten minutes of the contest saw our lads show incredible heart and determination, outscoring our opposition 3 points to no score to get us over the line on a scoreline of 0-19 to 0-16. Commiserations to Templeglantine who deserve huge credit for their performance and their spirit throughout the 80 minutes of hurling. Attention now turns to a Semi Final tie with Croagh-Kilfinny on Sunday 11th October in Kilmallock at 2pm. Team: Gerry Butler, Darren Kenihan, Conor Sherlock, Cathal McHugh, Craig Carew, Jack Molyneaux, Sam Mullins, Dean Kennedy, Matthew Graham, Killian Hannan, Cian Graham, Rob Healy, Macauley Murtagh, Jack McGarry, Keith Quinn Subs: Paul Kiely, Gary O'Connor, Chima Ohanya, Michael Togher Clancy, John Moloney, Kyrin McGarry, Emmett Harty, Gearoid Leo, Peter Garland, Mark Whelan, Ronan Power, Gearoid Leo, Evan Bromell.

 

Intermediate Football:

 

Best of luck to our intermediate football team who take on St Senan's in the County Semi Final this Tuesday in Caherdavin at 8pm.

 

U10 Football:

 

Our U10 footballers played out a very enjoyable game vs Ballinacurra Gaels on Friday last. It is great to see underage activity continue as the days begin to shorten.

 

Club Limerick Draw:

 

With many clubs facing a substantial loss in income due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Club Limerick Draw has become much more important as a means of coping with the increasing costs of running a club both on and off the field. We would ask that all those with an interest in Claughaun consider subscribing to the draw.
