While camogie has never been very strong in the parish , there was much Kilmihil interest in Clare’s All Ireland Junior victory in Croke Park. The winning goal was scored by Shona Enright Kilmaley. Shona’s mother is formerly Rosie Coughlan from Greygrove, for many years an outstanding athlete with Kilmihil and St. Mary’s.  Star forward was Mona Linnane, Shannon whose grandfather was Paddy Lillis formerly from Knockbeg.

Good luck to the Kilmihil football girls who play the the Intermediate final against Shannon Gaels on Saturday. The club has been in the finals for the past 2 years but were unlucky losers. We hope that it will be third time lucky. 

Congratulations to Ailish Considne who was on the Clare under 16 team that won the All-ireland “B” championship final against Tipperary.

Well done to Una Downes and Eimear Considine who starred in the Clare team which has qualified for the All_Ireland Junior final in a few weeks.
