Club Notes Week 35 2024

Senior Club Final Dr. Crokes 1:15 Dingle 0:11. After a fantastic team performance all over the field we secured our 11th Senior Club Championship title over Dingle on Sunday last. Having conceded the first point of the game, we responded in typical Crokes fashion, replying with 1:04 over the next 10 minutes, and keeping our opposition scoreless. That said goal came from the boot of birthday boy Cian McMahon after a fantastic long ball in from Tom Doyle. We were unlucky not to add another goal to our tally in the 19th minute when Gavin O’Shea’s goal effort was narrowly cleared off the goal line. 10 minutes later, and in similar fashion, Fionn Fitzgerald cleared the Crokes goal line to deny Dingle a goal of their own. We went in leading 1:07 to 0:05 at the break. The second half played out much like the first with impressive scoring and solid defending we ran out deserving winners. Tony Brosnan received the Man of the Match award having kicked 9 points. Next up is the County Championship in two weeks time.

Club Notes Week 33 2024

Senior Club Championship Dr. Crokes 1:15 Rathmore 2:10. After a very entertaining game in front of a large crowd in Rathbeg, we secured our place in the Senior Club Final.  We took control of the game from early on, keeping our opponents scoreless for the first 7 minutes of the game. Our opening score came from the boot of Cian McMahon. Mark O’Shea put on a fantastic display of fielding from the middle of the pitch from start to finish. In the 15th minute, Mark caught a brilliant ball from the Rathmore kick out, he played it in to David Shaw who worked extremely well to pass the ball off to Tony Brosnan who finished the ball in to the back of the net. We led comfortably at the break 1:09 to 0:03. We continued to control the beginning of second half, with a Charlie Keating goal opportunity narrowly missing the target. We held a comfortable lead, until the remaining 5 minutes of the game. Rathmore hit 1:02 in the space of a minute and a half to narrow the gap to just 3 points. With 6 minutes of injury time played we secured the win, and a place in our second final of the year. It was great to see the reintroduction of a number of players to the panel. We now face Dingle in the Final on September 1st in Austin Stack Park.

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.

Club Notes Week 30 2024

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.

Club Notes Week 29 2024

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.

Club Notes Week 25 2024

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.
