Congratulations Blarney Under 12 Hurlers

Blarney Fe 12 Hurlers where crowned league champions after a fantastic victory over Aghabullogue  on the 7th of August with a scoreline of 4-11 to 2-02. It was a brilliant display by the lads and hopefully this will give them the confinence they need to beat Inniscarra when they go head to head in the Mid Cork Championship on the 23rd of August. Best of Luck to the lads.

Fe 14 Premier County Hurling Final Replay

Blarneys grit and determination got them a second crack at the whip in the county under 14 hurling championship. They started by playing into a stiff breeze but this didn’t stop them from opening the scoring after good work by blarneys midfield and a fine effort from Dylan Lenehan after 3 minutes. Carbery replied with a point and where rewarded a penalty on the ninth minute which they duly slotted away. It was all Carbery for the next 15 minutes as they tacked on 4 unanswered points before Blarney added one of their own before the break through a fine long range effort by Peter Philpot. The half time score was then 1-05 to 0-03.

Blarney burst out of the blocks in the second half and hammered in a goal after 2 minutes and things seemed to be looking up for the Blarney men, however, Carbery had other ideas and answered with 2 quick points. A Ray Murphy free and another point from play where all that Blarney could muster in the second half as Carbery kicked on and closed the game out.

The Blarney team battled extremely hard right till the last minute and should be extremely proud of their performances not only in the final but throughout the year as they took on and beat far bigger teams. They provided us with great entertainment for the summer and will be a force to be reckoned with when they look to capitalise on the hard work done at under 15 level.

Blarney 1-05

Carbery 1-13

Stephan Nolan Tournament. 

U14 Divisional Tournament.

Muskerry v Duhallow

Muskerry dominated this game from start to finish but it was the manner with which they went about their task that thrilled their coaches. Muskerry settled into this game quickly they really looked impressive as 4 of their forwards scored and both midfielders and centre back impressive. They played a fast direct style of hurling and were well organised. This was a very good display in the first game of the Tournament.

Muskerry v Seandun

This was a very entertaining game the intensity form the first game rose significantly this was a tough well contested game between to very skilled teams. Muskerry forwards got on top early and the backs and midfield really closed down any threat that Sheandun showed. Muskerry ran out winners in the end due to the clinical finishing of their forwards. Muskerry had passed another test in their quest for a divisional title.

Muskerry v Imokilly

This was a meeting of the two undefeated teams, both teams possessed match winners it was who performed on the day would win this last game. This was a top class game with great skill, work rate and excitement; both teams were very well prepared and well coached. Muskerry had the better first half and led by 2 points, but Imokilly got off to a flier in the second half and took a 4 point lead. This is when we really found out how good Muskerry were they did not panic and responded to the challenge they scored the next 8 points with out reply against a very good Imokilly defence. The poise and skill they showed under pressure was a credit to all the players and coaches, Muskerry deserved their win it was a great experience for all the players, coaches and spectators.

Best for Muskerry were Sean Burke (Grenagh) Thomas O Connor (Inniscarra) Liam Murphy (Cloughduv) John Mullins (Eire Og) Dylan Lenihan, Raymond Murphy, Patrick Daly, Darragh Kelly,

Sean McSweeney (Blarney)

Blarney had 9 players in the final panel who gave great commitment to training, and matches,

Vincent O Brien, Darragh McPolin, Stephen Sheedy, Peter Philpott, Sean McSweeney, Patrick Daly, Raymond Murphy, Dylan Lenilan, Darragh Kelly.  Thanks also to John Darby Muskerry team coach and selector, to Paul Lenihan on tournament day
