O’Donoghue Cup Quarter-Final
Dr. Crokes 1-17 Kilcummin 0-15. Our senior footballers booked their place in the semi-finals of the O’Donoghue Cup with a hard-earned win over Kilcummin. A well-taken goal from Billy Courtney midway through the first half proved crucial, while Tony Brosnan was in outstanding form throughout, earning the Man of the Match award after an excellent scoring display. Kilcummin battled strongly right to the final whistle, but our accuracy and composure in the closing stages saw us secure a deserved five-point victory.

County Senior Championship
Dr. Crokes 0:15 Mid Kerry 3:08. Our seniors bowed out of the County Championship after a hard-fought battle with Mid Kerry in poor conditions on Saturday last. Despite the tough conditions the boys showed great determination throughout. Playing against a strong wind in the first half it tested our patience as we had to work harder for our scores. Trailing 1:06 to 0:04 at the break, we showed real character to draw level midway through the half thanks to some fantastic two pointers from Tony Brosnan. However, two late Mid Kerry goals proved decisisive as we narrowly lost out on a quarter final spot. While the result didn’t go our way there were a number of positives in the performance and huge credit must go to the players and management for their continued effort and commitment.

LGFA Senior Championship
Our Senior Ladies bowed out of the championship at the quarter final stage on Sunday 14th following a tough battle with 2023 champions Finuge/St. Senans. Played in windy conditions in Mountcoal, we played with the wind in the first half but got off to the worst possible start, conceding a goal inside two minutes. Despite this we kicked the next two points through Julie Delaney and Kate Stack but we were dealt another blow in the ninth minute with the concession of a second goal. However, great work from Treasa O Sullivan, Sarah Cooper, Niamh Stack along with points from Amanda Brosnan and a superb long range point by captain Siobhan Burns saw us trail by 5 at the break. Despite facing the strong wind in the second, we stayed in the game and some outstanding defending from Karena O Leary, Rocha Clifford, Megan Kiely and Annie Brosnan, as well as substitutes Lily Foley and Ali O Donoghue limited Finuge/St. Senans to three points. Further points by Amanda Brosnan and a point on the run from corner back Siofra Randles saw us cut the deficit to four points. However, despite the efforts of Leah Mc Mahon and Laura O Shea we couldn’t get the goal we so badly needed and ended up defeated on a scoreline of 2.10 to 0.11. While it was a disappointing end to the season, the players can be very proud in their achievement of winning the Donal Curtin Division 1 league title for the first time ever earlier in the season.

Senior Club Championship Final – Dr. Crokes 0:20 Na Gaeil 1:12
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
