Senior Club Championship Dr. Crokes 1:09 Na Gaeil 0:08. We travelled to Tralee on Saturday for the last group game of the Club Championship, where we secured our place in the Semin Final next Sunday away to Rathmore. Na Gaeil started the better, winning the hop and scoring the first point of the game in the opening minute. We levelled matters a minute later through a Tony Brosnan point from play. Both teams were evenly matched for the first half, trading scores and defending well. The first half finished level with 6 points each. We seemed to control the second half, having a number of goal opportunities throughout the half. We eventually got that goal we had been threatening through Cian McMahon, after a well worked ball in. We ran out deserving winners and now face Rathmore in the Semi Final on Sunday at 4pm in Rathmore.

Senior Club Championship Dr. Crokes 0:17 Miltown Castlemaine 0:06. We welcomed Miltown Castlemaine to Lewis Road last Saturday evening where we put on a great display of second half football to keep them scoreless until the 1st minute of injury time. It was our opponents who started the game livelier, scoring the opening two points of the game. It wasn’t until the 10th minute of the game that we got our first score through a Tom Doyle point from play. We pushed on from there and swapped scores for much of the half. We went in leading at half time on a scoreline of 6 points to 5 points. We dominated the second half and saw some fine scoring from Tony Brosnan, Fionn Fitzgerald, Alex Hennigan, Mark O’Shea and David Shaw. Credit must be given to the backlines who kept our opponents scoreless for the majority of the half. Next up we face Na Gaeil away next Saturday at 4pm in the last group game.

Senior Club Championship Dr. Crokes 2:14 Dingle 3:17. We travelled to Tralee on Saturday evening where we fell short to our west Kerry opponents. We got off to a fantastic start with a beautiful goal from Mark Fitzgerald in the opening 2 minutes. It was in the 28th minute that Dingle got their own maximum through a Paul Geaney goal, which left us trailing 1:05 to 1:09 at the break. The second half proved more challenging than the first when Dingle came out all guns blazing. Another Dingle goal early in to the half, and various Crokes injuries meant that it was going to be a tough battle to get on top of our oppositions. Kieran O’Leary struck a bullet into the back of the Dingle goal to narrow the margin ever so slighly. unfortunately the gap was too much and Dingle ranout winners in the end. Next up is Miltown Castlemaine at home at 7pm on Saturday 3rd July.

LGFA Our Senior Ladies hosted Southern Gaels in the semi-final of the Donal Curtin Cup on Monday last. We lined out without a large number of players due to injury, holidays and weddings. We got off to a great start with Kate Stack, scoring a goal followed by a point from Aoife O’Donoghue. Kate Stack, who was well supported by Sarah Cooper and Ava Sheehan, added a further two points. Strong defending from Karena O’Leary, Lillie Foley, Holly Power, Liz Moloney, Ciara Brannock and Casey O’Donoghue help give us a 1:03 to 0:04 lead at the break. Southern Gaels started the second half strongly, kicking the first four points of the half. However, a point from Amanda Brosnan, along with a great save from Jess Leahy kept us in touch. Our opponents kicked further points but some great attacking play by Laura O’Shea, Selina Collins, Christine Cooper and Muireann O’Brien led to the point from Amanda Brosnan to leave just a goal in it. Despite laying siege in the last few minutes, we just couldn’t score the important goal to equalize. Next up is the league which begins on July 15th.

SFL Div. 1 Dr. Crokes 2:19 Rathmore 1:11. Our senior footballers made it 11 wins from 11 in the SFL on Sunday last after overcoming Rathmore in Lewis Road. This was a massive team performance, with 10 different players getting their names on the scoresheet. First half goals from Mark O’Shea and Cian McMahon ensured that we took control of the game from early on. Leading 2:09 to 0:06 at half time it was always going to be a difficult task for our opponents.

SFL Div. 1 Dr. Crokes 2:16 Glenflesk 2:06. Our senior footballers remain unbeaten after a comprehensive win over Glenflesk in round 5 of the Senior Football League. Cian McMahon opened the scoring with a fine point from play from the throw in. 1 minute later, Michael Potts was unlucky not to hit the back of the net after two brilliant attempts at goal, Micheal Burns subsequently tipped the rebounding ball over the bar. 4 minutes in to the game Glenflesk were awarded a penalty, that Bryan O’Shea was unlucky not to save. We were awarded our own penalty 14 minutes later when Cian McMahon was brought down in the small square. Daithi Casey did well to convert from the penalty spot. We went in leading 1:11 to 1:02 at the break. We got the second half underway in the best way possible, with a Micheal Burns goal in the first minute. Again, just like the first half, Glenflesk got a second goal of their own in the 18th minute. Bryan O’Shea put on a great performance between post to pull off two more fantastic saves in the dying minutes of the game. We now sit at the top of the table going in to round 6. Next up is Ballymacelligott away on May 5th.

SFL Dr. Crokes 2:13 An Ghaeltacht 0:08. Our senior footballers put on a fine display of football in round 3 of the SFL away to An Ghaeltacht on Sunday last. A team mixed with youth and experience went in at the break leading 1:06 to 4 points.  Goals coming from Michael Burns and a Daithi Casey penalty helped give us a comprehensive win over our West Kerry opponents. Next up we have Glenflesk at home on Sunday 28th April.
 
SHL Dr. Crokes 0:14 Crotta O’Neills 2:21. The darkest hour is just before the Dawn and so it was when we hosted the reigning County Champions in Lewis Road last Friday night. The first half of this County League Fixture does not bear much discussion other than to say it was a severe mauling for the homeside. However, we emerged for the second half a team transformed. Right from the resumption the boys in Black and Amber set about their task with vigour and determination, personified by Nathaniel Doncel who led imperiously from the back. He was supported in his efforts by fellow defenders Conor Murphy and James Murphy.  Upfront the ageless Kevin Landers and Davy Carroll led the line. Having failed miserably to mount any sort of a challenge in the opening half, we blitzed our opponents with a succession of marvellous points. The last ten minutes was pure champagne hurling featuring some outstanding team scores as our boys showed an aptitude and skill not previously seen this Season. While this was another defeat the second half performance offers hope and encouragement for the road ahead. Our next fixture is away to St. Brendans in Arfert on Friday the 26th of April.  Throw in 7pm.
