GAA CLUB NOTES

The U-19’s North Board Championship Semi-Final against Tuam Stars was postponed last week due to pitch conditions and is rescheduled for Wednesday evening at 7:30pm in Corofin Pitch.

Last Saturday, the Intermediates played their Relegation Round 3 fixture against Killererin in Milltown and secured their Intermediate status for next year with an impressive win. The lads led the game at the break by a single point thanks to a goal from Colin Kelly. The second half was an even more impressive team performance which saw Conor Newell get a fine goal and Colin Kelly get two more goals to complete his hat-trick! The game finished Corofin 4-12 Killererin 0-08.


On Sunday the Seniors played their Championship Semi-Final against Milltown in Tuam Stadium on Sunday afternoon. An explosive start from the team resulted in a goal from Patrick Egan and a brace of goals from Jack McCabe, one of which was fortuitous from a free-kick out the field. The score stood at Corofin 3-05 Milltown 0-07 The second half was a more closely contested affair with Milltown rallying in the last 10 minutes, securing two goals, but it was ultimately too little, too late. The game finished Corofin 3-13 Milltown 2-12.

The Seniors are now through to the County Final where they will play Moycullen at the weekend after next, 5th November. Details of the fixture are yet to be confirmed.
