Kilruane MacDonaghs Notes August 15th 2022
Senior
We play Nenagh Éire Óg in the County championship in the Ragg on Sunday at 12.30pm. After the traumatic game against Clonoulty this is going to be a very difficult assignment for the lads so it is very important that supporters travel in force and get behind the team. Admission is by ticket only. A tap and go system will also operate.
U19
We chiselled out a 2-13 to 1-14 home victory over Newport in the quarter-final. There was very little between two evenly matched sides. We led by 2-6 to 1-7 at the interval with the goals coming from Jack Gleeson and Eoin Carroll.
Team: Kevin Naughnane (Capt), Eamonn Coonan, Ross Austin, Danny Cahalan, Ciarán Coffey, Jack Mulcahy (0-1), Paul Dwyer (0-1), Brian O’Meara, Rory Grace, Tristan Madden (0-2), Sean Hayes, Cian Moyles (0-1), Eoin Carroll (1-8, 1-4 frees & 0-1 65) Jack Gleeson (1-0), Cathal England, Subs: Níosa Minogue, Tadhg O’Brien.

On this Wednesday, 17th August we play a very formidable Moneygall/Clonakenny side in the semi-final in the Borrisoleigh at 7.00pm. Supporters are urged to get behind this team that has surpassed expectations to date. Admission is by ticket only. A tap and go system will also operate.
U15
Our first team played out an exciting draw with Éire Óg in Nenagh. We scored 5-12 while the home team put 4-15 on the board. Our second team made home advantage tell with a 2-6 to 1-4 victory over Newport.
U13
Both our teams enjoyed a great evening in the Aqua Splash, Dromineer on last Friday. A tremendous time was had by all on the water and the evening concluded with some very welcome refreshments.
U7
MacDonagh Park was the venue for a Blitz on last Friday evening involving Newport, Ballinahinch and Kilruane MacDonaghs. Thanks to Newport and Ballinahinch for travelling.
Tipperary Draw
The Tipperary Draw will commence on Friday, 2nd September. There is a €500,000 prize fund.
