U16 Girls lose to Shrule

U16 Girls lose to Shrule

Great effort from our U16 girls yesterday evening away to Schrule-Glencorrib GAA.

With just 15 players, they showed incredible determination and never gave up against a strong side, finishing with 4-05. The final score read 4-21 to 4-05, but the spirit, resilience, and pride in wearing the Kiltimagh GAA colours shone through.

Plenty to build on – we’re very proud of this group

Snr Ladies win again

Snr Ladies win again

Our senior ladies recorded their 5th win of the League, beating Cill Chomain on a scoreline of 5.19 to 2.08. 

The game was played at 7 pm in Kiltimagh, and despite the scoreline, it was an entertaining contest. 

Kiltimagh had the majority of the play in the 1st half and led at halftime by 4.12 to 0.04. 

In the second half, both teams upped their scoring, each totaling 10 points. 

A pleasing factor of the win was that a strong team was fielded despite 13 players missing from the panel due to work and other commitments. Also, several U18’s made their debuts. 

Well done to all, five wins out of six, and now it’s onto their last game v Kilmaine on the 17th of May in Kilmaine @ 11 am.

U18 Boys win V Ardnaree

U18 Boys win V Ardnaree

On Tuesday last, our minor boys had a good away win over Ardnaree on a scoreline of 2.18 to 4.08.

After a slow start, Kiltimagh found themselves trailing 1.01 to no score. They settled in as they slowly reached game speed and rattled off 1.08 without
reply, with Sean McDonnell hitting 1.02 from play. This was backed up by points from Luke Cummins, Daniel McNicholas, Con McDermott, and 3 from Conor Hession, leaving the half-time score Kiltimagh 1.09 Ardnaree 1.03.

The second half was end-to-end, with points being tagged on by both teams. Then Cuan Gill found the back of the net to put daylight between the teams, but from the resulting kick out, Ardnaree went straight down the field and hit right back with a goal. Moments later, at the other end of the field, Jack
Shannon kicked a huge 2-pointer, followed swiftly by a point from Tom Smith and another from Shannon.

Ardnaree were not done yet and kicked 1.02 without reply to draw the game level with eight minutes remaining. That was to be their last score as Kiltimagh finished the stronger with points from Donagh Bigley, Conor Hession, and a magnificent 2-pointer by Con McDermott.

Cameron Farrington in goals, and the defence, led by Eoghan McGovern, Rian Freeman, Conor Gilmartin, Johna Gill, Donnacha Kelly, and Donagh Bigley, worked tirelessly throughout. At midfield, Tom Smith and Conor Hession dominated, and up front, Sean McDonnell, Jack Shannon, and Con McDermott were constant threats. Substitutes Cian Carroll, Noah Byrne, and Harry Ward had a big impact in the latter stages of the game.
