Club Notes Week 38 2025

We regained the Senior Club title after a hard-fought 5-point victory over Na Gaeil on Sunday. We settle quickly after Na Gaeil’s early score with Tom Doyle and Tony Brosnan proving accurate in front of the posts. Tony finished on 8 points from play, while Gavin White contributed 5 points, which included two 2-pointers in the first half. Down at the other end, Shane Murphy pulled off a fantastic save to deny a Na Gaeil goal just before half time. We led 0:12 to 0:05 at the break. Tony Brosnan wasted no time in extending our lead, pointing within 25 seconds of the play. Strong performances from Mark O’Shea, Brian Looney, Gavin White and Billy Courtney drove us to a ten-point lead in the 50th minute. Na Gaeil continued to claw back and fired home a goal and a 2-pointer in quick succession to narrow the gap to just 4 with 4 minutes remaining. Alex Hennigan’s late point helped to secure the silverware. Our focus now turns to the County Championship

 

Dr. Crokes 1:14 Rathmore 0:15. Our Senior Footballers showed great grit and determination as they overcame Rathmore by the narrowest of margins, with a late Alex Hennigan goal proving decisive in an enthralling East Kerry clash. The contest was tight throughout. Playing against a breeze in the opening half, we edged a 0:06 to 0:05 lead at the break. A fine second half 2-pointer from David Shaw, and the experience of Brian Looney and Tony Brosnan (who shared 8 point between them) helped to keep the scoreboard ticking over. Trailing by 2 with just 5 minutes remaining, we defended well and kept our composure. The breakthrough came in the 57th minute when super sub Alex Hennigan latched on to a high ball in from Gavin O’Shea and drove the ball passed Shane Ryan in the Rathmore goal. Our opposition pushed hard for an equaliser, however the scoreboard remained in our favour. Our club championship campaign continues with either a quarter final or semi final place
