Kilmoyley (Kerry) 4-12 Monaleen (Limerick) 0-13 Jackie Cahill at the Gaelic Grounds, Limerick HISTORY FOR KILMOYLEY at the Gaelic Grounds this afternoon as the Kerry senior hurling kingpins won a game in the AIB Munster club hurling championship for the very first time. Kilmoyley, managed by former Clare star Ger ‘Sparrow’ O’Loughlin’s brother Fergie, saw off Limerick representatives Monaleen by 11 points in the provincial intermediate semi-final. Kerry senior captain Daniel Collins led the charge as Kilmoyley set up a final clash with Dan and Maurice Shanahan’s Lismore in a fortnight. And Kilmoyley will now aim to go one step further than Kingdom counterparts Ballyduff, who lost Munster intermediate finals…

FOR JUST THE second time in the club’s history, Foxrock Cabinteely ladies are gearing up for another Leinster final appearance. They took the honours last year at the expense of Sarsfields Mountmellick (Laois) and this year’s challengers come from the St. Laurence’s club in Kildare. But while they’re full value for their spot in today’s final, Cabinteely’s campaign almost came to a halt before the provincial stages even began. The county final against their rivals St Brigid’s produced a frantic finish with Cabinteely clutching to a two point lead. With seconds remaining, a scramble ensued in Cabinteely’s goalmouth. Brigid’s forward Elaine Kelly emerged with the ball and her resultant shot was greeted with…

“IT WASN’T GOING to be very open and we knew it wasn’t going to be too high-scoring.” If Tomas Quinn’s assessment of yesterday’s Dublin senior football final is true, then it’s just as well St Vincent’s had himself and Diarmuid Connolly in their ranks to unlock the Castleknock rearguard. The Dublin stars, past and present, shook off the cobwebs after a slow start and combined with devastating effect in the second-half. St Vincent’s landed a 28th county title, while Connolly and Quinn picked up their fourth Dublin SFC medal.

Tipperary’s Padraic Maher and Cork’s Patrick Horgan will be chasing club glory. Source: Ken Sutton/INPHO WE’RE DOWN TO the final four in the Munster senior club hurling championship today with places in the decider up for grabs. In Ennis, Clare’s Ballyea take on Tipperary’s Thurles Sarsfields while at the Gaelic Grounds, Limerick’s Patrickswell meet Cork’s Glen Rovers. For Ballyea this is unchartered territory after winning their first Clare senior hurling crown last Sunday. In contrast Thurles Sarsfields are seasoned campaigners after this year winning their sixth Tipperary senior hurling championship in eight years. Patrickswell ended a 13-year drought in Limerick recently but the club have 19 county senior titles to…

1. A 28th title for brilliant St Vincent’s ST VINCENT’S ARE back on top of the Dublin football tree. Their 28th senior football title leaves them 17 clear of their nearest challengers O’Tooles, who last lifted the trophy in 1946. Source: Tommy Dickson/INPHO Having gone from 1984 to 2006 without a championship title, Vincent’s are starting to replicated the sort of dominance they enjoyed in the 1950s, ’60s, ’70s and ’80s. Tommy Conroy, who took over as manager in 2012, has steered the Marino club to county titles in three of the last four years. 35-year-old Tomas Quinn, who made his Vincent’s debut back in 2000, picked up his fourth…

Mourneabbey  2-16 Banner 1-6 IN A REPEAT of the 2014 Munster club final, Mourneabbey prevailed against the Banner of Clare to secure their third senior Munster title on the spin. The Cork champions won the tie in emphatic fashion with Doireann O’Sullivan scoring seven of her side’s points while the goals came from Ciara O’Sullivan and substitute Laura Harrington. The reigning champions were hit with two sin bins during the tie but comfortably survived the setbacks.

St Vincent’s 0-15 Castleknock 0-10 Kevin O’Brien reports from Parnell Park ST VINCENT’S ARE the kingpins in Dublin once again. Mossy Quinn rolled back the years and Diarmuid Connolly played an instrumental role from centre-forward as the Vinnies were crowned county champions for the 28th time. Their third SFC title in four years wasn’t quite the blow-out many people were predicting before the game but nonetheless there was an assuredness and confidence about the display of the winners. Appearing in their first ever Dublin SFC in only their 18th year of existence, Castleknock gave a good account of themselves but ultimately they hadn’t the firepower to live with the Marino-based club.…
