Big weekend for Junior and Intermediate clubs
It’s the biggest weekend of the year on the junior and intermediate club circuit as Croke Park hosts the AIB GAA All-Ireland hurling and football finals next Saturday and Sunday.
Eight counties, featuring two each from the four provinces (Mayo, Galway, Armagh, Tyrone, Cork, Kerry, Carlow, Kilkenny) will be represented, giving it the broadest possible spread for what should be two great occasions on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon.
The full programme is as follows:
AIB GAA All-Ireland club championship finals
Saturday: Junior Hurling: Charleville (Cork) v St.Patrick’s (Kilkenny), Croke Park 5.30; Intermediate Hurling: Middletown Na Fianna (Armagh) v Mount Leinster Rangers (Carlow), Croke Park, 7.15.
Sunday: Junior Football: Derrytresk (Tyrone) v Naomh Padraig, Clonbur (Galway), Croke Park, 2.0; Intermediate Football: Davitts (Mayo) v Milltown-Castlemaine (Kerry), Croke Park, 3.45.
Intermediate Football: Davitts (Mayo) v Milltown-Castlemaine (Kerry)
Kerry’s third title or Mayo’s first? The answer will emerge on Sunday when Milltown-Castlemaine attempt to become the third Kerry club (St.Michael’s Foilmore in 2009, Ardfert 2007) to win the All-Ireland intermediate football title while Davitts are bidding to become the first Mayo club to land the big prize.
Davitts, the Mayo and Connacht champions, have yet to concede a goal in the three games which took them to the All-Ireland final, underlining how secure their defence is. They proved it yet again in the All-Ireland semi-finals when restricting Eire Og, Greystones (Wicklow) to just six points while scoring an impressive 2-12. Once again, Michael Conroy was their top scorer, kicking 0-8 to add to 1-14 he scored in Connacht (1-7 v Melvin Gaels and 0-7 v Padraig Pearses).
Goals by Fergal McGrath and David McDonagh further decorated Davitts’ All-Ireland semi-final performance as they became the first Mayo club to reach the intermediate final.
Ballindine-based Davitts are managed by Tuam’s Pete Warren, a selector with John O’Mahony during Galway’s All-Ireland winning years in 1998 and 2001. Interestingly, Stephen Joyce, a fellow-selector with O’Mahony and Warren, is in charge of Clonbur (Galway) who play Derrytresk in the All-Ireland junior final ahead of the intermediate decider.
Milltown-Castlemaine brought the Munster title back to Kerry for a 6th successive year with wins over Clondegad, Newmarket and Mullinahone before clinching an All-Ireland final place with a one point win (1-7 to 1-6) over Craigbane (Derry) in the semi-final. It was quite an achievement by the Kerry champions who were four points adrift of Craigbane entering the final quarter before a goal from Shane Murphy brought them right back in contention and they edged to victory on the run-in.
They had a close call in their first outing when it took a late goal from 19 year-old Cathal Moriarty to see of Clondegad of Clare in the Munster quarter-final before Milltown-Castlemaine had three points to spare against Newmarket in the semi-final. Former Kerry players, Ian Twiss scored 0-4 for the Kerry champions while Jerome Flynn notched the crucial goal on a day when Mick Burke was outstanding at midfield for the winners.
Tipperary champions, Mullinahone provided the opposition in the Munster final but were easily beaten by a rampant Milltown-Castlemaine. Twiss scored 0-5 while Flynn added 1-2 as the Kerrymen powered to a 1-14 to 0-6 win.
How they reached the final
Davitts 1-12 Melvin Gaels (Leitrim) 0-12 (Connacht semi-final)

Milltown-Castlemaine 1-14 Mullinahone (Tipperary) 0-6 (Munster final)
Milltown-Castlemaine (Kerry) 1-7 Craigbane (Derry) 1-6 (All-Ireland semi-final)
Junior Football: Derrytresk (Tyrone) v Naomh Padraig, Clonbur (Galway)
Derrytresk are bidding to become the second Tyrone club to win the All-Ireland junior title (St.Patrick’s were successful in 2007) while Naomh Padraig, Clonbur are seeking to become Galway’s first junior winners.
Clonbur, managed by former Galway star, Stephen Joyce, were easy winners over Ballivor (Meath) in the All-Ireland semi-final, powering to a 3-4 to 0-3 win. Goals by Brian Keane, Walter Holleran and Eamonn O Cuiv gave the Galwaymen an unexpectedly easy victory, having earlier beaten Creggs (Roscommon) and Islandeady (Mayo) in the Connacht championship
They were level with Islandeady with four minutes remaining but points by Eoin Joyce and Pat Lambe gave the Galwaymen victory. Eoin Joyce, a son of former Galway senior star, Stephen Joyce scored 0-7 (0-3 frees) for impressive Clonbur. He added a further three points against Ballivor.
Derrytresk draw from a small base but haven’t let it impede their ambitions in any way. They had six points to spare over Dromid Pearses (Kerry) in the semi-final (1-10 to 0-7) on a day when Niall Gavin (0-6) and Joseph McKee (1-1) were top scorers for the Ulster champions.
Derrytresk, jointly managed by Paul Hughes and Paul Canavan, earlier powered their way to easy wins over the Derry and Armagh champions in the first two rounds of the Ulster championship, beating Doire Trasna by 12 points and Eire Og by 15 points before facing a much tougher challenge against a strong Cremartin (Monaghan) side in the final.
It was all square at half-time before Cremartin led by two points after 50 minutes but a crucial goal from veteran, Michael Rea (Caolan Corr had scored their first in the opening half) helped Derrytresk to the narrowest of victories.
How they reached the final
Clonbur 2-11 Creggs (Roscommon) 1-4 (Connacht semi-final)
Clonbur 0-11 Islandeady (Mayo) 0-9 (Connacht final)
Clonbur 3-4 Ballivor (Meath) 0-3 (All-Ireland semi-final)
Derrytresk (Tyrone) 2-11 Doire Trasna (Derry) 0-6 (Ulster quarter-final)
Derrytresk 2-12 Eire Og (Armagh) 0-3 (Ulster semi-final)
Derrytresk 2-5 Cremartin (Monaghan) 0-10 (Ulster final)
Derrytresk 1-10 Dromid Pearses (Kerry) 0-7 (All-Ireland semi-final)
Intermediate Hurling: Mount Leinster Rangers (Carlow) V Middletown Na Fianna (Armagh)
Nobody would have predicted a final between Armagh and Carlow clubs at the start of the championship but Mount Leinster Rangers and Middletown ran superb campaigns to set up a very interesting final.
Middletown scored a total of 13-63 in their four-game march to the final, including a very impressive 3-14 against a highly-rated Effin (Limerick) team in the All-Ireland semi-final. Middletown raced into an early seven point lead with a goal from Cathal Carville settling them into an impressive flow. Middletown led by six points at half-time and goals by David Moan and Conor McCann strengthened their grip early in the second half and they withstood a late rally from Effin to clinch a place in the final.
Earlier, Middletown scored a total of 10-49 in their wins over Carrickmore, Lamh Dhearg and Castleblayney in Ulster. Their closest call was in the Ulster semi-final where they were run to five points by Lamh Dhearg but it was very much different in the final where they had a whopping 27 points to spare over Monaghan champions, Castleblayney.
Ryan Gaffney scored 3-1 and Michael Mone 2-4 for the rampant winners who became the first Armagh club to win the Ulster IHC title since Keady were successful in 2007.
Mount Leinster Rangers had a closer call in their All-Ireland semi-final, beating Robert Emmets (London) by two points. Denis Murphy scored 0-7 for Rangers as they edged into the final.
It was the latest achievement for the Mount Leinster Ranger club who enjoyed a great 2011 as they added the Leinster intermediate title to the Carlow senior hurling crown. Now, they are one win away from an All-Ireland title, which would be a magnificent achievement for a club which was only founded in 1987.
A tough draw against Kilkenny intermediate champions, Danesfort, home club to Kilkenny stars, Richie Hogan and Paul Murphy presented Rangers with a huge test in the Leinster semi-final but they responded in style, winning by 1-10 to 1-8. A goal by Eddie Byrne in the 39th minute set Rangers on their way to a famous victory, setting up a final clash with Celbridge. John Coady scored 1-2 and Denis Murphy 0-5 against the Kildare champions as Rangers steered a steady course to a 1-13 to 0-13 success.
How they reached the final
Middletown 2-21 Eire Og Carrickmore (Tyrone) 1-11 (Ulster quarter-final)
Middletown 3-11 v Lamh Dhearg (Antrim) 2-9 (Ulster semi-final)
Middletown 5-17 Castleblayney (Monaghan) 0-5 (Ulster final)
Middletown 3-14 Effin (Limerick) 2-10 All-Ireland semi-final
Junior Hurling : Charleville (Cork) v St.Patrick’s (Kilkenny)
Seven of the last eight All-Ireland junior titles have gone to Cork and Kilkenny clubs and the pattern will continue next weekend as Charleville face up to St.Patrick’s, Ballyraggett.
Charleville swept into the final with a 14-point win over Fullen Gaels (Warwickshire) in the semi-final. James O’Brien scored 0-7 and Mark Kavanagh 1-1 for a rampant Charleville side, who also racked up three impressive wins in Munster.
They beat Cappamore by 3-15 to 2-8 in the Munster final, although the winning margin flattered them somewhat as Cappamore were only two point adrift midway through the second half before Charleville pressed on to run out ten point winners.
Top scorer, James O’Brien scored 1-5 for Charleville to add to the 1-8 he scored in the semi-final against Rockwell Rovers and the 1-6 he notched against Kenmare in the quarter-final.
St.Patrick’s were equally impressive in Leinster before beating Ballygar (Galway) by four points in the All-Ireland semi-final. Kevin Kelly scored 0-8 for St.Patrick’s, who did most of the damage in the first half when they opened up an eight point lead before withstanding a Ballygar revival.
Earlier, St.Patrick’s made it six in a row for Kilkenny clubs as they captured the Leinster title with relative ease, winning all three games by big margins. Carlow Town were the first to experience the awesome power of the Ballyragget outfit, losing by 17 points before the Kilkenny champions galloped past Brosna Gaels of Offaly by the same amount in the semi-final.
It set them up for a Leinster final clash with Ballyfin of Laois and the St.Patrick’s men delivered again, winning by 11 points. Kevin Kelly scored 0-9 and Joe Brennan 0-6 to keep St.Patrick’s in line to become the first Kilkenny club to win the All-Ireland junior title since Conahy Shamrocks were successful in 2008.
How they reached the final
Charleville 1-13 Kenmare (Kerry) 0-5 (Munster quarter-final)
