in their bid for four in a row of senior championship titles on Saturday last
October 1st when they took on Gall Tir Senior camogie team in the senior County
final in Carraiganore. Lismore and Gall Tir met earlier in the championship

scored her sides second on the fifteenth minute. Gall Tir crashed a fine goal
to the back of the Lismore net before Lismore started to come into the game and
scored three points to one in the next ten minutes, but it was Gall Tir had the
last say of the half ending the score line of the half Lismore 0-5 Gall Tir

It was Lismore who came out with all
guns blazing in the second half and held Gall Tir to score one point to
Lismores 1-1 (goal courtesy of Caithriona McGlone) for the first ten minutes of
the half, but the Gall Tir girls kept puttting pressure on and pulled away to
win the match on the final score of Gall Tir 2-11 Lismore 1-6.
