Killeshandra 1-11 Knockbride 1-7 Junior men in championship final The junior men defeated Laragh in Terry Coyle Park on Wednesday last to secure a spot in the Junior D championship final. Final score: Killeshandra 1-12 Laragh 1-10. The saffrons will face Killinkere in the final, time and venue to be confirmed. Ladies defeated in 9-a-side final In a game played in torrential rain Killeshandra were unlucky to lose in the Division 2 nine-a-side final. Despite Killeshandra having more possession Killygarry were first of the mark with 2 points in the opening minutes. Patricia O’ Reilly finally got the leaguers on the score board with a well taken point; however Killygarry extended their lead with a point from their corner forward. At this stage Killeshandra were on the constant attack and missed 2 goal chances and kicked 3 wides. Killygarry scored 2 more points before Annemarie Connolly helped the leaguers settle with a well taken point and she set Niamh Mulligan up for a great goal. Joanne Hayes followed this up with a pointed free which gave the leaguers a minimal lead at half time, 1-3 to 5 points. The second half was marked with heavy downpours which make clean football difficult for both teams; Killygarry opened the scoring and drew level with a point before Joanne Hayes put over another free for the leaguers. At this stage with the majority of possession the leaguers were struggling with the shooting and Killygarry broke through a tight defence which was led by an exceptionally strong Emma Mulligan, to score a goal. They followed with another point which left Killeshandra with 2 points to find, Annmarie Connolly found the black spot again and shot over but unfortunately for the girls Killygarry finished the stronger with another goal which in the dying minutes left the game well decided. Killeshandra: Sinead O’Reilly, Sinead Duffy, Emma Mulligan, Natasha Brady, Melissa King, Patricia O Reilly, Niamh Mulligan, Laura Feeney, Sile Sweeney, Ciara Brady, Sinead Kelly, Joanne Hayes, Maeve Duffy, Caroline Olwill, Celine Reilly, Nicola Clail, Sinead Duffy,Annemarie Connolly. Thank you to Donal Keoghan The senior ladies wish to thank Donal Keoghan of the Imperial for his generous sponsorship of new kit bags for the whole team. U13 Division 3 Final St Josephs V Gowna On Wednesday 24th August St Josephs travelled to Breffni Park to take on Gowna in the division 3 final. In a game that promised to be tough the young team showed great skill and determination to become the champions defeating Gowna with a final score of 2-10 to 1- 07. Gowna managed to keep the emerging champions in check in the first half and left the field drawn at half time, however, St Josephs drew away in the latter stages of the second half when the dug deep and kicked some fine scores.

Senior Ladies Results
On Sunday last the ladies good form on home ground continued with a convincing 6-02 to 0-09 win over Drumgoon in the semi-final of the 9-a-side adult league. All attacks on goal by Drumgoon were quickly foiled by the dogged defending displayed by the back line, while the forwards had no trouble finding the back of the net. Once again the team attacked en masse with goals coming from captain and corner back Sinead Duffy, four from full forward Laura Feeney and one from corner forward Sile Sweeney, Point scorers were Niamh Mulligan and Sile Sweeney. The girls fought hard the whole game to ensure this victory and have certainly earned their spot in the final details of which are TBC. Good luck girls!

Senior Ladies Results
Despite being depleted by a plethora of injuries the ladies unbroken winning streak on home ground continued in style on Sunday last when they inflicted a 2-10 to 0-8 defeat on Killygarry. At half time, in what was a rough and physical game, the sides were four points apiece, however as is their habit the girls came out fighting in the second half and went straight on the attack. The forwards and midfield found their target with every shot on goal and cross bar, while the backs refused to give Killygarry an inch tenaciously defending as a pack. The girls will now play the 9 a side adult league semi-final, date and venue TBC.

Senior Ladies Results
On Friday night last the Killeshandra ladies continued their good form on home ground with a convincing win over St. Finbarrs. Their intermediate début saw the Leaguers beat the visitors 6-11 to 0-5 and continue their unbeaten streak on the newly renovated Packie Devlin pitch. Despite torrential rain the girls were on top form with excellent performances in all positions. Captain Sinead Duffy lead by example from the start winning every ball that came her way while vice captain Patricia O' Reilly's work rate in the middle of the field was astounding. Donna English was exceptional as ever, while the young Annmarie Connolly continued to intimidate the competition with her quick wits and quicker feet. Melissa King was on exceptional form scoring points that were examples in excellence. Having got their first intermediate campaign off to a flying start the girls will no doubt continue to impress under the dedicated management of Patricia Dolan and Tomas Mc Dermot. Good luck girls!
