Lismore 2-10  Gaultier 0-11

The WIT Arena at Carraiganore, Waterford was the venue for this years Senior County Final on Saturday last October 8th. A Thrilling game of camogie was to be expected on the day with both weather conditions and an immaculte venue perfect for such a game and indeed this was the case as both teams served up a great game of camogie.

Lismore were first out of the blocks with an Aoife Hannon point from a free on the 5th minute followed by a point from Gaultiers Aine Lyng from a free on the 7th. Aoife once again split the posts for Lismore on the 9th and 2 minutes later a point from Gaultier. Both sides played with some great intensity with some great skill being displayed by both teams. Both defending and attacking by both sides kept the scoring tit for tat when one side scored the reply by the other soon after. By the 25th minute it was Gaultier who held the lead by the minimum 6 points to 5 points. On the 29th minute Gaultier were once more on the attack with the Lismore backs under severe pressure and were beaten and a super save pulled off by the brave Tanya Morrissey in goal cleared out to her half back line and was  driven out to be caught by Aoife Hannon who passed to Ruth Geoghegan who passed to Caithriona McGlone who had passed her marker and banged it to the back of the Gaultier net. The whistle was blown for half time leaving the score Lismore 1-5 Gaultier 0-7.

It was Lismore who got on the scoring sheet on th 39th minute from Aoife Hannon, but it was 6 minutes later before Gaultiers  Annie Fitzgearld got them on the scoring sheet. Aoife Hannon who was on fine form from placed balls scored on the 45th minute followed by an Aine Lyng free on the 46th. Still the hooking and blocking especially by Sarah Coughlan and Marie Russell kept the Gaultier forwards at bay and found it very hard for them to get a score. Shona Curran scored from mid field on the 51st minute and it was six minutes later before Aine Lyng got her sides third point of the half and three minutes into injury time Aine got their 4th point of the half. Due to many stoppages there was allot of injury time to be played and on the 65th minute Caithriona McGlone once more got passed her marker and struck another whopper passed the Gaultier goalkeeper. But this was still not the end of the Lismore scoring when the back on form Aoife Hannon scored the final point of the game on the 67th minute leaving the score line Lismore 2-10 Gaultier 0-11.

The Senior cup was presented to Lismore Team captain Nicola Morrissey by County Chairperson Ita Murphy. Ita, in her speech congratulated both teams for the great game of camogie and said it was great to see such support. Nicola in her speech thanked all the team panel and backroom team for all the hard work they had put in over the year and all this paid off. She said it was lovely to have the U8s playing at half time and that they are our future stars.

Lismore go to represent the County in the Munster Intermediate Championship which will be played on Saturday 29th of October against the Tipperary Champions, either Cashel or Silvermines as the Tipperary County Final will be played on Saturday next.

Hard luck to our minor girls who bowed out at semi final stage where they met a very strong St.Annes team and were beaten by a very comprehensive score line.

So a well deserved break for these girls and mentors and they will be back with full of energy for next years campaign in the Spring.

Lismore 4-12  De La Salle 0-07

On Saturday evening last September 23rd all roads lead to Kill GAA Grounds as the Lismore Senior team were eagerly awaiting the County Semi-Final V De La Salle. Having drawn with Cappoquin in the last round robin of the championship, the girls were to play in the semi-final to qualify them for the County Final V Gaultier set for the weekend of October 7th/8th.

Throw in for this game was set for 5.30pm and Lismore played with a very strong blustery wind in the first half. It was De La Salles Beth Carton opened the scoring in the first three minutes with a point.  It was on the 6th minute when the speedy Caithriona McGlone ran through the De La Salle defense and landed the sliotar to the back of the net.  Two minutes later Beth Carton found herself one on one with Goalkeeper Tanya Morrissey and a certain goal was deflected over the bar by the brave Lismore girl (A save that Waterfords Steven O Keeffe would be proud of).At this stage one point separated the sides but this save by Tanya seemed to be the turning point of the game for the Lismore girls and drove them on for the remaining 24 minutes of the half, with some great play form the Lismore backs feeding some well placed balls into their forward line thus setting up some very fine scores. Lismore held De La Salle scoreless to Lismores 2-6 for these 20 minutes ending the half on a score line of Lismore 3-7 De La Salle 0-2.

The second half began with the weather to turn very nasty with very heavy wind and rain making play very difficult for both teams.As in the first half it was De La Salles Beth Carton opened the scoring and indeed had three points scored before Aoife Hannon scoring Lismores first point on the 40th minute from a free. Playing conditions at this stage were very tough but both sides played with great determination. Even tho' the Lismore girls were playing against the wind they seemed to be handling the situation very well and held De La Salle on a score line of 0-5  to 1-5 in this half leaving the full time score Lismore 4-12 De La Salle 0-07.

The Lismore girls are now qualified for the Senior County Final V Gaultier, which is set for the weekend of October7th/8th at a time and venue to be confirmed. Pleease watch this space on next weeks papers and the Lismore Camogie Facebook page for updates.

Lismore 4-14  Gaultier  1-7


Walsh Park Waterford was the venue on Saturday last May 20th for the 2017 "Denny Buckley Senior League" Final. Lismore and last years County Champions Gall Tir were the contestants. Throw in for this game was set for a 7pm start and both teams were eager to claim the League title.

It was Gall Tir who got on the score sheet first with a point on the 4th minute, but it was Lismore who had all the play after this and scored their first point on the 6th courtesy of Caithriona McGlone who scored 2 more points on the 9th and 10th minute before her sister Becky pulled to the back of the net on the 11th minute from a ball that was pulled from mid-field by Marie Russell. Lismore were on fire at this stage and had all the play only letting Gall Tir score only 2 points for the first 12 minutes. Caithriona was on fine form playing at centre forward and scored 2 more points from play on the 13th and 14th minutes before she split the Gall Tir posts from a ball flicked back to her from team captain Nicola. This was not the end of Caithrionas purple patch by no means as she scored 2 more fine points on the 16th from a free and another from play on the 18th. The speedy wing-forward Johanna Houlihan flicked up the sliotar on the run and headed straight for the goal and scored a beautiful point on the 19th minute. This was to be Lismores last score for the remainder of the half and Gall Tir were gaining momento and scored their third point on the 24th minute and again another in the 29th minute from a free. It was into injury time and Gall Tir were pushing on at this stage and were threatening the Lismore backs and scored a goal on the 34th minute leaving only 4 points between the sides going in at half time. Half time score Lismore 1-8 Gall Tir 1-4.

The second half began with Lismore coming out of the blocks with great determination as Gall Tirs first half goal giving them a wake up call and Caithriona once more splitting the posts on the 35th minute. Ruth Geoghegan ran at the Gall Tir backs from a ball that was passed to her from a Caithriona McGlone solo run from her own half back line to her forward line and made no mistake and struck to the back of the Gall Tir net getting Lismores 2nd goal on the 37th minute. Caithriona who was in fine form scored two more points from frees on the 38th and 40th minutes, before corner forward Sinead Bennett pulled on a bobbling ball on the Gall Tir goal mouth which once again found the net for Lismores 3rd goal on the 40th minute. Lismore were ruthless at this stage and team captain Nicola found the back of the net a minute later for Lismores 4th goal. Gall Tir had no answer for the advancing Lismore girls and were held scoreless for nearly all of the second half. Caithriona scored another point from a free on the 43rd minute but had to vacate the field on the 47th minute  due to an injury to her hand. Nicola scored a fine point on the 49th minute. Marie Russell took over free taking duties and scored a point on the 55th minute which was duely Lismores last  point of the game. Gall Tir scored their only 3 points of the half  in the last five minutes of the game leaving the final score Lismore 4-14 Gall Tir 1-7.

The Denny Buckley Cup was going back to its home town for the fourth time and was presented to team Captain Nicola Morrissey by County Board Chairperson Ita Murphy.
