Both said that it was great to see new members in the U6's U8's U10's. It was very encouraging to see these age groups participating in blitzes  throughout the summer and into the Autumn.

Jim and Marie thanked Lismore GAA for the use of their facilities and also Ballysaggart GAA and Ballyduff GAA for the use of their facilities throughout the year. Both thanked the clubs main sponsor  Michael O Leary (Red House and Auctioneer and Valuer) and Caithriona Doyle who kindly sponsored the clubs printing throughout the year also they thanked all other sponsors and the town of Lismore for all their support of the club in the various fundraising events .

EDIT: Many thanks to Mary Russell for forwarding her notes to me and allowing me to publish them here each week over the past number of years. I was always fully informed with what Mary sent for both club and county and I wish her the best of luck in her retirement. I have a feeling however that we have not seen the end of Mary’s involvement with Camogie and that we will continue to see her involved in one way or another.

 

Should any club who are involved in women’s sport, the sport does not matter and want to get some free publicity for their club by means of uploading their notes onto this site if they email them to me at keanethomas1973@gmail.com I will more than gladly put them online as soon as possible after getting them.

It’s AGM Time Again

Lismore Camogie Club will hold their AGM Thurs 29th Nov at 8pm in community centre. We encourage everyone to please come along to ensure that there will be a good force behind the girls for the coming year. The club are seeking personnel for positions in areas of admin and on field activates. Present top table will not be seeking re-election. Please feel free to get in contact with club secretary on any queries or suggestions big or small. 

Second Munster Title for Gailltir

Gaultier 2-10 Eire Óg 0-6

Gaultier (County Waterford) are Munster intermediate camogie champions following an impressive performance against Eire Óg, (County Cork) at Leahy Park, Cashel on November 11. They were well-deserving of their 2-10 to 0-6 victory and might have been further ahead at the final whistle.

A heavy shower before the game made the field difficult for skilful hurling but the winners served up an outstanding performance of individual brilliance and effective teamwork.

Playing with a slight breeze in the first half they dominated the game and led by 1-7 to 0-2 at the interval. Not only did they score 1-7 but they also hit seven wides.

In contrast Eire Óg scored 2 points and hit no wides, For most of the half they made few incursions into the Gaultier space until the final five minutes of the period. They did get the first score when Maedbh Ellen Desmond sent over after two minutes, but their second didn’t come until the twenty-fourth minute from Margaret O’Herlihy.

In contrast Gaultier scored five points in the first twenty-two minutes, three of them coming from a very impressive Annie Fitzgerald.

Then in the twenty-third minute the Waterford champions decided to make up for lost time. Following a great run by Aine Lyng from centrefield and a pass to Aoife Fitzgerald on the edge of the square, the Eire Óg goalkeeper was given no chance with the goal shot. This was followed up by two points from Lyng and Clodagh Carroll to send Gualtier to the dressing room in a commanding position on a scoreline of 1-7 to 0-2.

Gaultier didn’t have it all their own way on the resumption. Eire Óg came out in a determined manner and upped the tempo of the game. But they found it very difficult to score against a resolute and skillful Gaultier back line.

Their best efforts were frustrated in the eighth minute when a Gaultier attack yielded a goal from Annie Fitzgerald.

They continued to try hard but the results were meagre, three points over the thirty minutes, all three coming from an excellent Margaret O’Herlihy.

It was Gaultier’s day and though their scoring wasn’t as prolific as it had been in the first half, they did add three points from Shauna Fitzgerald, Annie Fitzgerlad and Aine Lyng for a final tally of 2-10 and a winning margin of eleven points.

The winners had outstanding players all over the field but Aine Lyng, Ciara O’Sullivan and Annie Fitzgerald deserve special mention as an impressive half-forward line. Also impressive were Aoife Fitzgerald and the half-back line of Leah Sheridan, Emma Roche and Hannah Flynn.

Eire Óg were an  equally committed side but they didn’t have the skill level of the Waterford side. Three of their players deserve special mention, Meadbh Ellen Desmond, Margaret O’Herlihy and Isobel Sheehan

Gaultier: Ciara Jackman, Emily Mahony, Margo Heffernan, Claire Dunne (capt.), Leah Sheridan, Emma Roche, Hannagh Flynn, Kate Lynch, Shauna Fitzgerald (0-1), Aine Lyng (0-3), Ciara O’Sullivan, Annie Fitzgerald (1-5), Emer Walsh, Aoife Fitzgerald (1-1), Clodagh Carroll  (0-1).  Subs: Emma Flynn for Shauna Fitzgerald, Eilis Cullinane for Annie Fitzgerald,  Aine O’Keeffe forEmily Mahony, Hannah Hutchinson for Clodagh Carroll

Eire Óg: Rachel Murray, Katie McCarthy, Aileen Hennessy, Aine Barry, Emma Quigley, Marie Gleeson, Aoife O’Callaghan, Emma Crowley, Isobel Sheehan, Ruth Murphy, Siobhan Hutchinson (capt.), Meadbh Ellen Desmond, Grace Collins,  Margaret O’Herlihy (0-4), Gillian Murphy. Subs; Niamh Twomey for  Grace Collins, Orla Meaney for Emma Crowley, Aideen Buckley for  Katie McCarthy, Ciara Sheehan for Gillian Murphy.

Gailltír        2:13 Modeligo 2:04

An early morning throw in at Walsh Park saw Gailltír and Modeligo go head to head in the U16A County Final with these two young talented teams serve up an entertaining game with an abundance of skill and physicality on show.

The opening quarter saw Gailltír create the greater amount of chances but with 12 minutes gone Modeligo led by 0:02 to 0:01 through frees from Máiréad O’ Brien and Gailltír’s score coming through Aoife Fitzgerald again from a placed ball.

The opening score from play had the green flag raised with Alannah O Sullivan finishing expertly on 15 minutes.  The momentum swung with Gailltír further with Alisha Flynn grabbing a second goal within as many minutes to put them in control. Further points through Aoife Fitzgerald, Alannah O Sullivan and Clodagh Curhams left the sides going in at half time on a score line of 2:07 to 0:03.

After the restart both teams came out with an added level of intensity and physicality with every ball being fought for.  Modeligo got the first score of the second half through a free from Máiréad O’ Brien with Alannah O’ Sullivan producing a quick response with a point of her own once more from play.

Modeligo started to build momentum and put pressure on Gailltír with them winning another free, this time Máiréad O Brien raising a green flag from 25 yards out.  Within minutes of this, with Modeligo beginning to run at the Gailltír defence another free was awarded and again this produced a goal through the stick of Máiréad O’ Brien.  This reduced the Gailltír lead to four points on a score of 2:08 to 2:04 with 18 minutes remaining. 

Gailltír found another gear however and tagged on another five points without reply to see them get over the line over a resilient Modeligo team.  In what was a great game of camogie played in good spirit the final score finished on 2:13 to 2:04.

Gailltír Team: Elena Gallagher, Laoise Forrest Caoimhe Forrest, Rachel Jones, Aoife Hartley, Sarah Maher, Jodie Touhy (Joint Capt), Sorcha Cantwell, Anna Mai Drohan, Alisha Flynn(1:01), Aoife Fitzgerald(0:07(0:06F)(Joint Capt), Clodagh Curhams(0:01), Alannah O Sullivan(1:04), Dara Fitzgerald, Maeve Sheridan, Clodagh Hoctor, Aoife Murphy, Francesca Richies, Ciara McHugh, Mollie Comerford, Roisin Sweeney.

Under 12’s win County Final

U-12 A County Championship Final. DLS 6-6 (24) Gailltir 5-5 (20)

Pride of place this week goes to our U-12 girls who captured our third U-12 A County Title since our camogie clubs formation in 2009. The other 2 titles were won in 2010 & 2011. This final was played in Fraher Field Dungarvan on Sunday in front of a very large attendance. We were slow to start this game and trailed throughout the opening exchanges going in at the half time whistle 4 points down on a score line of 3-4 (13) to 2-3 (9). Our mentors rallied the troops at half time and the girls came out flying in the second half clawing back the deficit and then pushing on to take the lead. Our opponents kept coming back but our girls held on to run out deserved winners at the final whistle. The trophy was presented by the Waterford Camogie County Board Chairperson Ita Murphy to our U-12 club captain Sarah Sheehan. Sarah thanked her team mates for the fantastic commitment shown all year, the team mentors Brendan Boland and Trevor Whelan, first aid Paula Connolly. Sarah also thanked the County Board and also praised our opponents Gailltir for a tough sporting game and gave them 3 cheers. Many thanks to all our supporters who showed up to the final and cheered on the team from start to finish, much appreciated. Afterwards in the dressing our club girls presented our captain Sarah with a signed DLS jersey as this was Sarah's final U-12 game before she moves to Carlow. Well done Sarah for all the hard work, commitment, laughs (even though there was plenty of tears flowing lol. in the dressing room after the game) shown on the various squads down through the years. Our loss will be your new clubs gain but many a challenge game can be arranged.
