It’s a big weekend for Sadhbh Mooney as she and the Mayo U18 Ladies team take on Leitrim in the Connacht Championship, Saturday, the 21st @ 3.00 pm in Carrick-on-Shannon.
Sadhbh is a member of the Kiltimagh G.A.A. Ladies senior team, and it is her 2nd year wearing the red and green of Mayo.
Everyone in Kiltimagh G.A.A. wishes Sadhbh and the Mayo team the very best in their quest for silverware this year.
In today’s East Mayo Centenary Cup League 2 game v Ballyhaunis, an understrength Kiltimagh team lost out to Ballyhaunis on a scoreline of 2.14 to 2.07.
Conditions were not the best, with strong winds, rain, sleet, and hailstones at times, during the game.
Kiltimagh had the breeze behind them in the 1st half and led by 2.06 to 0.06. In the second half, it was Ballyhaunis’s turn to have the breeze, and they scored 2.08 to our 1 point.
A great win for our U18 girls v Shrule Glencorrib on a scoreline of 3.12 to 4.04. It was a brilliant display by all the players, given the atrocious conditions on the night, with strong winds, rain, and sleet for most of the game.
The 2026 Senior Ladies players and Management have voted Caoimhe Hession and Madeline O’Donnell as their 2026 Captain and Vice-Captain, respectively.
This is the second year both players have been chosen in these roles to lead the Senior team. Both are true leaders, on and off the field, and all in Kiltimagh G.A.A. wish them well for the coming year.
Kiltimagh senior ladies recorded an away win against Shrule Glencorrib in the 1st round of the Senior League Division 4 on a scoreline of 6.14 to 2.07. This was a pleasing result as the majority of the team had attended the club’s annual awards night held the night before.
Kiltimagh took advantage of a strong breeze in the 1st half and were ahead at half-time by 5.11 to Shrule’s 0.01. As expected, in the second half, tiredness crept in, and a number of substitutions were made. Shrule scored 2.06 to Kiltimagh’s 1.03 and the scoreline finished up Kiltimagh 6.14 to Shrule’s 2.07.
Another pleasing factor was that Kiltimagh had 28 players, with several younger players making their debut.
,A great start to the year and well done to all.
Best wishes to Alanna Burke, who plays full back for the University of Galway v TUS Limerick in the HEC Donaghy final. The match will be played next Friday, the 13th, in the DCU Sports grounds @ 4 pm.
Alanna is a stalwart member of our Ladies senior team, and her teammates, along with all in the Kiltimagh GAA club, are wishing her the very best.
