Clanmaurice Camogie Final:
Well done to Clanmaurice Camogie who had a great run this year and competed in the replay of the All-Ireland junior club camogie championship final.
Kilmessan of Meath were never in front in the drawn encounter at Crettyard and it took a goal with almost the last act of the game in the third minute of extra time from Aileen Donnelly to secure a replay, four minutes after Aoife Behan had seemed to snatch glory for Clanmaurice in what was a first appearance by a Kerry club in an All-Ireland Camogie Final.
Kilmessan struggled to break down gritty Clanmaurice on this occasion too but were able to create just a bit more in the second half to edge clear for victory. Crucially, Kilmessan had a supporting cast of players able to find the target from play.
That was a luxury that Clanmaurice did not possess and with the brilliant Patrice Diggin nursing a hand injury. Commiserations to the Kingdom ladies for not achieving the ultimate title on this occasion, but well done on a super season.
