Club Lotto Results
15th August 2019
SENIOR HURLERS: Patrickswell maintained their perfect start to the Senior
Hurling Championship with a comfortable win over South Liberties. It took Kevin
O'Brien eight minutes to break the deadlock with the game's first point. One
minute later, he burst through the South Liberties defence and notched a fine
goal. John Flynn's point put the 'Well 1-2 to 0-0 ahead, before our opponents
struck their first point. Their recovery was short-lived as John Flynn claimed a
goal and Aaron Gillane added another point. At the 15 minute mark, Ciaran
Carey's side led by 2-3 to 0-1. The middle of the first half was more even. Four
Patrickswell points from Aaron Gillane (0-2), Josh Considine and Andrew Carroll
were cancelled out by South Liberties. The 'Well finished the first half with a
barrage of four points from John Flynn (0-2), Aaron Gillane and Jack Kelleher.
The half-time score was 2-11 to 0-6.
South Liberties started the second half with two consecutive points before Aaron
Gillane responded with a point. Their ninth point of the match was followed by
another Kevin O'Brien goal to build a 3-12 to 0-9 advantage. Diarmaid Byrnes
recorded his first point; however South Liberties replied with three unanswered
points. There were fifteen minutes left on the clock and the 'Well were 3-13 to
0-12 ahead. As the rain fell heavily, Patrickswell closed out the match with a
final purple patch of four points (Aaron Gillane 0-2, Diarmaid Byrnes and Kevin
O'Brien). At the final whistle, the group leaders emerged as 3-17 to 0-12
winners. The next Championship match is on Friday August 16 at 7.30pm in the
Gaelic Grounds against Kilmallock.
JUNIOR A HURLERS: The Junior A hurlers suffered their first City
Championship defeat of the season against a tough Old Christians team. The
Rathbane team made a rapid start and led by 1-1 to 0-0 after five minutes.
Patrickswell settled into the match and responded with three points from Adam
Carrig, Barry Foley and Gavin Carey. Old Christians stepped up their effort and
tacked on three consecutive points to lead by 1-4 to 0-3 after 15 minutes. The
'Well increased their tempo and rallied with four straight points from Barry
Foley (0-2), Gavin Carey and Cillian O'Reilly. The scores were tied at 0-7 to
1-4 with ten minutes left in the first half. Two Jonathan McMahon points were
cancelled out by our opponents, before Owen McNamara, David Woulfe and Aaron
Carmody gave Patrickswell a 0-12 to 1-6 advantage after 28 minutes.
Unfortunately, Old Christians smashed two goals in a minute just before the
half-time whistle and led by 3-6 to 0-12 at the break.
The second half began with a decisive goal from Old Christians that opened up a
six point lead of 4-6 to 0-12. Darragh Ahern and Cian Enright scored fresh
points, but these were matched in kind. When Old Christians bagged another two
points, they were comfortably ahead at 4-10 to 0-14. The last five minutes were
characterised by three Patrickswell points (Darragh Ahern 0-2 and Cian Enright)
and another Old Christians point. The final score was a 4-11 to 0-17 defeat.

Championship match after an exciting and physical tussle in Ahane. Patrick Kirby
struck the opening point, but the 'Well were stunned by an onslaught of 1-6
without reply from Ahane. While other clubs would have collapsed, Patrickswell
rolled up their sleeves and blitzed the hosts with eight straight points.
Patrick Kirby notched seven of the points, while John Kirby chipped in with a
point. The scoreline after a breathless 25 minutes was tied at 0-9 to 1-6. Ahane
stopped the rot with a point, but Shane Hannon equalised just before half-time.
The second half was more conventional and dogged. Patrick Kirby added another
two points; however Ahane levelled quickly. Another Patrick Kirby point was
cancelled out immediately. The 'Well appeared to take control with three
straight points from Eoin Harmon (0-1) and Patrick Kirby (0-2) in the middle of
the half. Ahane edged back into the contest with two unanswered points. With ten
minutes left, Patrickswell led by 0-16 to 1-12. Cormac Kerins' point opened up a
two-point advantage. Unfortunately, Ahane rallied in the closing minutes and
thwarted the 'Well by scoring three unanswered points. The result was a 0-17 to

points. The half-time scoreline was 1-12 to 0-8.

Hurling League encounter. Cian Enright's opening point was quickly followed by
Paul O'Brien's goal. Adare responded with two points before Cian Enright scored
another point. Adare rattled two fresh points, but Jack Kelleher then claimed
his first point of the match. With fifteen minutes on the clock, Patrickswell
led by 1-3 to 0-5. Following this, our neighbours increased their output of
points. Three Adare points had to be countered with scores from Jack Kelleher,
Paul O'Brien and Jason Gillane. At the 25 minute mark, the 'Well held a narrow
1-6 to 0-8 lead. Paul O'Brien's second goal built a four-point lead, although
Adare accumulated five more points in contrast to Patrickswell's late points
from Jack Kelleher and Lar Considine. The half-time score was a slender 2-8 to
0-13 cushion for Patrickswell.
Ciarαn Carey's men started the second half strongly and were rewarded with
points for John Flynn and Lar Considine. To their credit, Adare had a spell of
1-4 while Patrickswell mustered two points from Jack Kelleher. There was 15
minutes to play and Adare held a 1-17 to 2-12 lead. Jack Kelleher increased his
personal tally with two points to draw level, but Adare crept another point
ahead. The devastating blow was landed by Shane Hannon's goal, followed up by
points from Jason Gillane and Paul O'Brien. Patrickswell had claimed a 3-16 to
1-19 victory.
JUNIOR A HURLERS: Patrickswell produced a late recovery to beat Crecora
in the City Championship. Crecora scored the opening point of the match, but
Cillian O'Reilly replied within minutes. Crecora's second point was followed by
a trio of points from Peter Harty (0-2) and Cian Enright. The scoreline was 0-4
to 0-2 after twenty minutes. Crecora drew level after they scored another two
points. The game came to life when Cillian O'Reilly struck a 70 yard free that
eluded the goalkeeper and trickled into the net. The 'Well were a goal ahead,
yet Crecora ended the first half with three consecutive points. At the interval,
the match was deadlocked at 1-4 to 0-7.
The second half started in a similar manner. Crecora scored a point and Cillian
O'Reilly equalised immediately. However, Crecora had a purple patch and notched
four consecutive points to lead by 0-12 to 1-5. Shane Hannon stemmed the tide
with a point, but this was immediately countered by our opponents. Cian Enright
and Barry Foley trimmed the deficit to two points with only five minutes left.
Our unbeaten record in the City Division was in jeopardy. The game changed when
Aaron Carmody scored a fantastic goal while on his knees. Patrickswell were now
in the lead and the victory was cemented by a close-range Darragh Ahern goal.

in the County League semi-final against Feenagh Kilmeedy. The opening exchanges
were keenly contested as Peter Harty and Gavin Carey kept the score at 0-2
apiece. Our opponents crept ahead by 0-5 to 0-2 after scoring three consecutive
points. Peter Harty (0-2), Paul Bennis, Jonathan McMahon and Cillian O'Reilly
contributed five more points to trail by just 0-8 to 0-7 after 25 minutes. The
'Well took the lead for the first time when Aaron Carmody struck the net before
the interval. Feenagh Kilmeedy were able to score two more points to ensure the

Feenagh Kilmeedy were dominant at the start of the second half. They scored two
quick points before Peter Harty replied with a point. In the next five minutes,
our opponents secured five unanswered points to lead by 0-17 to 1-8.
Patrickswell fought back with a trio of points from Peter Harty (0-2) and Jamie
Dillon. The deficit was now three points at 0-17 to 1-11. While Feenagh Kilmeedy
nudged ahead by four points, Cian Enright and Cillian O'Reilly (0-2) slashed the
deficit to a single point. Unfortunately Feenagh Kilmeedy remained composed and
closed the match with three straight points. The final result was a 1-14 to 0-21
reverse.

three points to lead by 0-5 to 0-2. Eoin Harmon contributed a point and Patrick
Kirby racked up six points as the 'Well edged ahead by 0-9 to 0-8 after twenty
minutes. Shane Hannon's point extended the lead, but Kilpeacon equalised at 0-10
apiece. Patrick Kirby put his stamp on the final stages of the first half with
another five points just after Josh Carey scored. The half-time scoreline was
0-16 to 0-13 in favour of the 'Well.
Patrick Kirby's continued accuracy added three points at the start of the second
half. Patrickswell were looking very strong at 0-19 to 0-14. Kilpeacon stormed
back into the match when a goal and point trimmed the arrears to a single score
(0-19 to 1-15). Patrick Kirby was on hand to respond with another one goal and
two points to restore a 1-21 to 1-15 lead. Two points each were exchanged and
kept the margin at six points. Kilpeacon set up a grandstand finish with a
second goal, but Eoin Harmon closed the door immediately with Patrickswell's
second goal. The game was slipping towards injury time with the 'Well 2-23 to
2-17 ahead. Kilpeacon scored a third goal and reduced the deficit to three
points. Our defence held firm and Patrickswell won by 2-23 to 3-17.

when the Junior A hurlers beat Claughaun in the City League final. The match
started badly for the 'Well after Claughaun scored a goal within two minutes of
the throw-in. However, our opponents were devastated by a ten-minute spell where
Peter Harty registered an extraordinary hat-trick of goals. The scoreline after
15 minutes was 3-2 to 1-1. Claughaun narrowed the gap with three consecutive
points, but their recovery was halted by a point from Jamie Dillon and a fourth
goal and fresh point from Peter Harty. Patrickswell were now ahead by 4-4 to
1-4, before Claughaun closed the first half with two points.
The second half began positively for Claughaun as they notched another two
points and trimmed the deficit to five points. Owen McNamara, Darragh Ahern and
Paul Bennis struck a point apiece as Patrickswell matched Claughaun score for
score. With fifteen minutes left, Patrickswell were ahead by 4-7 to 1-11. The
five point margin was still a worry, before Anthony Carmody's men claimed seven
unanswered points to clinch the match. The scorers were Peter Harty (0-3), David
Woulfe (0-2), Jamie Dillon and Darragh Ahern. Owen McNamara lifted the trophy on
the back of a 4-14 to 1-12 triumph.

to 0-0 lead within five minutes. Doon registered their first point, but Mark
Carmody and Jack Kelleher stretched the lead to 0-5 to 0-1 for the visitors. The
East Men increased their tempo and were rewarded by five unanswered points. At
the midpoint of the first half, Doon led by 0-6 to 0-5. Kevin O'Brien equalised
for Patrickswell, but Doon edged ahead again. Thankfully, Jack Kelleher was in
excellent scoring form before the interval. He notched five points to establish
a 0-11 to 0-8 lead at half-time.

scoreline was 0-12 to 0-11 before Tom O'Brien equalised. Doon added another pair
of points; however Jason Gillane, Kevin O'Brien and Andrew Carroll restored the
Patrickswell lead at 0-15 to 0-14 with ten minutes left. The pendulum swung back
in Doon's favour as they struck two points. Jack Kelleher restored parity at
0-16 apiece to set up an exciting final five minutes. Due to a player injury,
the referee had to call a draw before time elapsed.
JUNIOR A HURLERS: Patrickswell picked up their second win of the City
Championship after a convincing win over Monaleen. Within ten minutes, the 'Well
cruised into a 0-4 to 0-0 lead. Monaleen struck two points, but these were
cancelled out by Cillian O'Reilly and Cian Enright. Monaleen added another two
points; however Gavin Carey and Jamie Dillon responded in kind. There were five
minutes left in the first half and Anthony Carmody's men led by 0-8 to 0-4. Cian
Enright secured two fresh points to ensure that Patrickswell reached the break
at 0-10 to 0-5 ahead.
The second half began favourably when Cian Enright's two points were followed by
an Owen McNamara goal. From an extremely tight angle, the forward slotted the
ball through the goalkeeper's legs. Patrickswell were nine points ahead at 1-12
to 0-6. Monaleen fought back with four unanswered points to slash the arrears to
1-12 to 0-10. The game was decided as a contest when Patrickswell rattled over
four points and Peter Harty struck a lovely goal from a narrow angle. The
scoreline was 2-16 to 0-11 with a few minutes left. Darragh Ahern closed out the

matches in four days. In the opening fixture, Patrickswell made the short
journey to Ballybrown in the All-County Hurling League. Darragh Ahern scored the
opening point within thirty seconds. However, Ballybrown blitzed the 'Well with
two goals in a minute that ultimately determined the course of the match.

0-5 after fifteen minutes. The Clarina men increased their tempo and dominated
the remainder of the first half, scoring a third goal and racking up more
points. At the interval, Ciaran Carey's men trailed by 3-9 to 0-7.
The second half began with a point from Kevin O'Brien; however Ballybrown
responded with three points in quick succession. Jack Kelleher kept the 'Well in
touch with three consecutive scores to make the scoreline 0-11 to 3-12. There
was a flicker of hope when Patrickswell notched their first goal, but Ballybrown
were able to maintain the gap. With ten minutes left in the game, Ballybrown
were cruising at 3-15 to 1-12. Jack Kelleher had a strong finish to the match,
scoring four unanswered points. The final result was a 3-15 to 1-16 defeat.
The next match was a rolled-up League and City Championship encounter with
Monaleen in Claughaun. There was a high tempo start to the match as early points
were exchanged. Monaleen's impressive penalty was immediately cancelled out by
Jason Gillane's close-range goal. Kevin O'Brien was in sparkling form as he
contributed three points to put Patrickswell 1-6 to 1-4 ahead after fifteen
minutes. Jack Kelleher, Andrew Carroll and Jason Gillane registered on the
scoreboard to put the 'Well ahead by 1-12 to 1-8 at half-time.
The second half began with an attacking onslaught from Patrickswell that
overwhelmed Monaleen. Paul O'Brien produced a goal within two minutes of the
restart, while Darragh Ahern and Jack Kelleher added fresh points. When Jason
Gillane's second goal of the contest hit the net, Patrickswell were 3-14 to 1-9
ahead. There was no reduction in effort, with Kevin O'Brien leading the charge
and racking up three more points to his personal tally. Paul O'Brien and young

Night to recognise the great achievements of the 1973 and 2018 All-Ireland medal
winners - Richard Bennis, Phil Bennis, Frankie Nolan, Sean Foley, Cian Lynch,
Diarmaid Byrnes and Aaron Gillane. It was poignant to see two generations of

awarded to Brendan Cawley for his decades of trojan work and unwavering support
for Patrickswell GAA Club. Martin Ryan received a Distinguished Service Award
for his long service to the club. Our Junior A hurlers also received medals for
their three titles in 2018.
SENIOR HURLERS: The Senior hurlers made a winning start to the All County
Hurling League after a high-scoring and narrow victory against Ahane.
Patrickswell dominated the opening fifteen minutes and built a 0-6 to 0-2 lead
with points from five different players. Ahane edged themselves back into the
contest and began to match the 'Well point-for-point. Four points from Ahane
were countered by four points from Patrickswell via Jack Kelleher (0-2), Jason
Gillane and Darragh Ahern. The scoreline after twenty minutes was 0-10 to 0-6.
The teams continued to score freely as Patrickswell approached half-time with a
0-13 to 0-10 lead. However, Ahane scored a speculative equalising goal from long
range in the closing stages. Both teams traded points and reached the interval
level at 0-14 to 1-11.
The second half was barely two minutes old when Calvin Carroll scored
Patrickswell's first goal to open up a 1-14 to 1-12 lead. Ahane responded with a
flurry of points to draw level at 1-16 apiece on forty minutes. Jason Gillane
and Andrew Carroll notched points to build a two-point advantage, but Ahane
restored parity almost immediately. The middle of the second half was keenly
fought as the teams continued to be inseparable. As the match entered the final
ten minutes, the scoreline was 1-21 apiece. The game seemed to turn in
Patrickswell's favour when Kevin O'Brien's shot rattled the crossbar and dropped
kindly for Darragh Ahern to hit an empty net. To their credit, Ahane raced
upfield and equalised with a close-range goal. The spectators were looking
forward to an exciting climax to the match. The 'Well were able to outscore
Ahane in the last five minutes and won by 2-25 to 2-23. The next scheduled
fixture is on Saturday May 11 away to Ballybrown at 7pm.

JUNIOR A HURLERS: The Junior A hurlers made a winning start to the City
League when they won away to Monaleen. The hosts scored the opening point, but
Patrickswell raced into the lead with points from Jonathan McMahon (0-2) and
Cian Enright. Monaleen replied with two fresh points to equalise at 0-3 apiece.
While Darragh Ahern nudged the Well ahead once again, Monaleen were level
within a minute. The latter stages of the first half were controlled by the
Well as Cian Enright notched three points. At the interval, Anthony Carmodys
men were 0-7 to 0-5 ahead.
Patrickswell began the second half strongly and went 0-9 to 0-5 ahead when Cian
Enright and Darragh Ahern took their points. Monaleen narrowed the gap with a
point, but they were undone by a purple patch of four points from the Well.
The scoreline was 0-13 to 0-6 with ten minutes left on the clock. Adam Carrig
and Cillian OReillys points closed out the match and Patrickswell returned

25th April 2019
SENIOR HURLERS: The Senior hurlers produced a comprehensive display to
beat champions Na Piarsaigh in the second match of the County Championship.
Patrickswell began with a high tempo and were rewarded by an early point, which
Na Piarsaigh immediately cancelled out. Within five minutes, Kevin O'Brien
struck the net after his determined solo run. Na Piarsaigh gradually settled
into the contest and scored a couple of points to close the gap at 1-2 to 0-3.
However, the Caherdavin men were put on the back foot when Kevin O'Brien notched
his second goal to cement a 2-2 to 0-3 advantage for the 'Well. Diarmaid Byrnes
and Jason Gillane then contributed fresh points to open up a seven-point lead of
2-4 to 0-3 after fifteen minutes. Na Piarsaigh halted the surge with their
fourth point of the match, but Aaron Gillane and Andrew Carroll scored points to
extend the margin to eight points at 2-6 to 0-4. The first half ended with a
robust response from Na Piarsaigh when they claimed three consecutive points to
move closer at 2-6 to 0-7. Both teams concluded the first half with two points
apiece (Jason Gillane and Diarmaid Byrnes). At half-time, Patrickswell were 2-8
to 0-9 ahead.
Na Piarsaigh made a good start to the second half and scored two straight
points. The deficit stood at one goal with 2-8 to 0-11 on the scoreboard. Aaron
Gillane produced three points that were sandwiched between three Na Piarsaigh
points. The scoreline after forty minutes was 2-11 to 0-14. Na Piarsaigh then
moved within two points and there was great anticipation among the crowd for a
grandstand finish. However, the match was decided by a ruthless attacking surge
from Patrickswell that yielded six consecutive points. Aaron Gillane (0-2), Josh
Considine, Andrew Carroll and Jack Kelleher (0-1 each) finally put the match
beyond Na Piarsaigh. At the end or normal time, Ciaran Carey's men held a
commanding 2-17 to 0-15 lead. The Light Blues scored a consolation goal in
injury time, but Patrickswell stood firm for a famous 2-17 to 1-15 victory. Well
done to the players and management.
JUNIOR A HURLERS: On Saturday April 27, Patrickswell are scheduled to
play Monaleen away at 7pm. Please follow social media for precise dates and

18th April 2019
SENIOR HURLERS: Patrickswell made a winning start in the Senior Hurling
Championship against Doon, despite the challenging conditions in Kilmallock.
The 'Well played into a stiff breeze in the first half and Doon took advantage
with the opening two points. Diarmaid Byrnes registered Patrickswell's first
point and this was quickly followed by points from Aaron Gillane and Paul
O'Brien. After fifteen minutes, the scoreline was 0-3 to 0-2 to Ciaran Carey's
men. Doon rallied with two consecutive points, but Diarmaid Byrnes cancelled out
this recovery with two points in response. Once again the East Men equalised;
however Aaron Gillane was on hand to nudge Patrickswell back into the lead at
0-6 to 0-5. At the end of the first half, Doon scored twice to go ahead by 0-7
to 0-6. Diarmaid Byrnes registered the final point of the first half to ensure
that the teams were level at 0-7 apiece. Patrickswell had coped with the strong
breeze and were delighted to reach half-time at parity.
With the conditions now in our favour, the 'Well took full advantage at the
beginning of the second half. Jason Gillane's point was immediately followed by
John Flynn's goal after a determined solo run. Aaron Gillane and Diarmaid Byrnes
struck more points to put Patrickswell ahead by 1-10 to 0-7. While Doon scored a
point, Cian Lynch responded immediately. The middle of the second half saw Doon
reduced to thirteen men after two red cards were issued. Our opponents scored
another two points, but Jack Kelleher and Mark Carmody notched their first
points to ensure a 1-13 to 0-10 triumph.
On Easter Sunday, the Senior hurlers return to Kilmallock to play Na Piarsaigh
at 2pm.

UNDER 21 HURLERS: The U-21 hurlers bowed out of the Premier Championship
after suffering defeat to a strong Na Piarsaigh side. Patrickswell started
extremely positively and were dominant in the opening ten minutes. John Flynn
and Josh Considine struck two points each as the 'Well raced into a 0-4 to 0-1
lead. Na Piarsaigh settled into their stride and roared back into the match with
a passage of one goal and three points without reply. At the twenty minute mark,
the Caherdavin men were 1-4 to 0-4 ahead. Thankfully, the 'Well had a second
wind and notched four points in a five-minute surge. With five minutes remaining
in the first half, the sides were level at 0-8 to 1-5. Unfortunately, Na
Piarsaigh devastated Des Foley's men with an unanswered blitz of 1-5 before the
interval. The half-time score was a deficit of 2-10 to 0-8.
Patrickswell needed an immediate response at the start of the second half.
However, Na Piarsaigh chalked up another 1-2 without reply in five minutes. The
margin was now thirteen points at 0-8 to 3-12. John Flynn sparked a mini-revival
with a haul of one goal and two points as the arrears were trimmed back to eight
points at 1-10 to 3-12. There was no room for a dramatic comeback as the Light
Blues increased their tempo and secured another 1-3 without response. As the
game entered its final phases, Na Piarsaigh led by 4-15 to 1-10. Patrickwell
added a few insurance points while exiting the competition on a scoreline of
1-12 to 4-15. Hard luck to the players and management.
UNDER 14 CAMOGIE FΙILE: Our U-14 girls battled their way to a County
Feile final after a long weekend of camogie. In the semi-final, they accounted

UNDER 21 HURLERS: The U-21 hurlers maintained their 100% record in the
Premier Hurling Championship after beating Kildimo-Pallaskenry at a rain-soaked
Gaelic Grounds.
Our opponents adapted to the terrible conditions and dominated the opening
fifteen minutes. Patrickswell found themselves four points down and under
consistent pressure. John Flynn notched the 'Well's first point to settle some
nerves; however Kildimo-Pallaskenry cancelled out this score immediately. Once
again, John Flynn narrowed the deficit to three points with his second point,
but it was swiftly matched. Thankfully, Des Foley's men rallied in the last five
minutes of the first half and claimed consecutive points from Cillian O'Reilly,
Paudie Maher and John Flynn. The half-time deficit was 0-6 to 0-5.
The second half produced a dominant display from Patrickswell that overwhelmed
Kildimo-Pallaskenry. Darragh Ahern, John Flynn and Brian Fitzgerald scored early
points to establish a 0-8 to 0-6 lead. Cian Enright's goal was a turning point
in the match. This moment was followed by a consistent scoring rate as Jamie
Dillon, Jason Gillane (0-2) and Josh Considine (0-2) piled on the points. With
five minutes left, Patrickwell were ten points ahead at 1-13 to 0-6. Our
opponents struck their solitary point of the second half with a few minutes
left. The final score was 1-14 to 0-7. Patrickswell have qualified directly into
a semi-final that is scheduled for Tuesday March 19.

U-21 HURLERS: In the third match of the Premier Championship, the Well
comprehensively beat Monaleen. Our opponents were on the back foot from the
outset and were unable to halt our impressive attack. Within five minutes,
Darragh Ahern cleverly intercepted the goalkeepers short clearance and drove
the sliotar into the unguarded net. This goal was followed by points from John
Flynn (0-2), Jason Gillane, Josh Considine, Jamie Dillon and Paudie Maher.
Patrickswell were 1-7 to 0-0 ahead after fifteen minutes. Monaleen eventually
registered a point on the scoreboard, however the onslaught continued from John
Flynn (0-2), Calvin Carroll and Jason Gillane. The half-time advantage was
twelve points at 1-11 to 0-2.
Monaleen registered two points at the beginning of the second half; however
Patrickswell cancelled these scores out quickly. The reprieve for Monaleen was
short-lived. In the space of ten minutes, Jordan Higgins scored a close-range
goal, while John Flynn and Jason Gillane combined to score four points. The
margin had expanded to 2-17 to 0-4 with five minutes remaining. Our opponents
notched a late consolation goal and point; however it was fitting that Calvin
Carroll secured the final point of the match. Patrickswell went home from
Caherdavin with a 2-18 to 1-5 victory.
The final group match is scheduled for Tuesday March 5 against
Kildimo-Pallaskenry.

U-21 HURLERS: The U-21 hurlers continued their winning start to the
Championship season by defeating Na Piarsaigh in Rhebogue. Patrickswell made an
impressive start and led by 0-3 to 0-0 within five minutes. Na Piarsaigh managed
to settle into the match and replied with two consecutive points. Shortly
afterwards, Jason Gillane and Josh Considine gave the 'Well a 0-5 to 0-2
advantage; however the Caherdavin team responded with two fresh scores. After
fifteen minutes, Patrickswell held a narrow 0-5 to 0-4 lead. Des Foley's men
enjoyed a short purple patch and racked up three unanswered points to build a
0-8 to 0-4 margin. Na Piarsaigh were resilient and reduced the arrears with yet
another two point burst. Thankfully, Cillian O'Reilly scored a late point to
establish a 0-9 to 0-6 half-time buffer.
The second half was a tighter contest and points were harder to register. Na
Piarsaigh notched the opening point, but Jason Gillane cancelled out that
particular score. Na Piarsaigh chalked up another point before John Flynn
replied in kind. Paudie Maher fired a vital point to provide some breathing
space. As the match entered its final quarter, the 'Well led by 0-12 to 0-8.
However, two Na Piarsaigh points slashed the margin to 0-12 to 0-10. The 'Well
produced another point to cement a one-goal lead at 0-13 to 0-10 with two
minutes remaining. Na Piarsaigh earned a long-distance free at the start of
injury time. Instead of aiming for a goal, they settled for a point and hoped
that the referee would grant additional time. The Patrickswell defence stood
firm and we held out for a 0-13 to 0-11 victory.
The next Championship match is on Tuesday February 19 against Monaleen in
Rhebogue at 7.30pm.

UNDER 21 HURLERS: Patrickswell made a winning start to the Premier
Hurling Championship against Ahane. The opening stages were completely dominated
by the 'Well as we established a 0-6 to 0-0 advantage after fifteen minutes.
Darragh Ahern scored three of these points, while Jamie Dillon, Josh Considine
and Jason Gillane contributed one point apiece. Ahane managed to stem the tide
with their first point, but this was immediately cancelled out by a Patrickswell
point. After twenty minutes, there was great uncertainty over whether an Ahane
shot had crossed the line. While the players took their positions for a 65', the
referee and umpires agreed that the sliotar was over the line and the green flag
was raised. The scoreline was now 0-7 to 1-1 in favour of Patrickswell. The goal
did not cause much concern as Jason Gillane fired in a goal, while Darragh
Ahern, Adam Carrig and Eoin Carroll added fresh points. Des Foley's team were in
firm control at 1-10 to 1-1, before Ahane notched two points before the
interval. The half-time score was 1-10 to 1-3.
Our opponents were revitalised in the second half. Ahane scored three points
without reply until Darragh Ahern responded with a point. Once again, Ahane came
forward and claimed two consecutive points. The match had become competitive in
the final quarter. With fifteen minutes remaining, Patrickswell led by 1-11 to
1-8. Thankfully, Darragh Ahern (0-2) and Jason Gillane created some breathing
space when they extended the margin to six points at 1-14 to 1-8. In the final
minutes, Ahane scored a second goal to slash the arrears to three points. There
was no grandstand finale for Ahane as Patrickswell struck an insurance point to
win by 1-15 (18) to 2-8 (14).
The next match is against Na Piarsaigh in Rhebogue on Tuesday February 12 at
7.30pm.

JUVENILE CLUB ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING: The Juvenile Club Annual General
Meeting for 2018 was opened by new Chairman John Murphy. Secretary Peter Maher
delivered his annual report to the audience. The year started with a Recruitment
Event that was very well attended by young people and strongly supported by the
senior players. Peter thanked everyone who assisted in the successful running of
the event.
The next portion of the Secretary's Report was a review of each age group. The
U-6s trained on Friday evenings and greatly enjoyed themselves. The U-8s learnt
the fundamentals of hurling and attended numerous blitzes and challenge matches.
The U-10s were extremely busy with blitzes and attended an intercounty event in
May against Portroe, Cashel and Ballybrown. The Parish League acted as the
traditional season closer, where the young boys and girls had the chance to
showcase their talents. Many thanks to the Fitzgerald family for donating
equipment to the club and O'Brien's Pharmacy for sponsoring the day.
The U-12s played in an eleven-a-side league and also trained with the U-14s.
Their most memorable event was a blitz in Croke Park against Cork and Tipperary
teams. The boys were given words of encouragement by Cian Lynch and Aaron
Gillane. The U-14s had a long season that stretched from February to December.
They contested Fιile and the championship, learning much along the way. The
U-16s reached a semi-final and played very well.
Senior Club Chairman John McDermott addressed the meeting. He was delighted that
John Murphy had taken the role of Juvenile Club Chairman. A major objective of
the club is to identify young players in the locality and get them hurling with
the 'Well.
The following management teams were picked: U-6 Conor Murray and John Murphy,
U-8 Dave Hennessy, Mark Griffin and Keith Mullane, U-10 Declan O'Grady, U-12

CLUB ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING: The Clubs Annual General Meeting was held
in the clubhouse with a healthy attendance present. Martin Ryan delivered his
final Secretarys Report in his usual comprehensive style. The Senior hurlers
were pipped in the County Championship semi-final by Doon, but they did manage
to secure the City Championship against Ballybrown. The Junior A hurlers
collected three trophies this season, following their successes in the City
League, County League and City Championship. Their only defeat of the season was
the County Championship semi-final loss to Kileedy.
The U-21 hurlers bowed out in the group stages in the spring. Our Minor hurlers
had a fantastic season and battled all the way to the County Final.
Unfortunately, Garryspillane produced a strong performance to deny Patrickswell.
The Secretary thanked managers and selectors for facilitating the matches
throughout the year. He complimented every Patrickswell player that lined out
for Limerick, especially the All-Ireland winning trio of Cian Lynch, Diarmaid
Byrnes and Aaron Gillane. Gratitude was expressed to main sponsors, Duggan
Systems and the Greyhound Night Fundraising Committee led by Michael Walsh.
Martin commended the Camogie Club, Juvenile Club and Patrickswell National
School for being so helpful and obliging. He concluded his report by expressing
thanks to our Club Lotto organisers - Seamus ORiordan, Tommy Reidy and Bernard
Hayes, our County Board delegate Oliver Mann, our Munster Council delegate Paul
Foley and the outgoing Chairman, Kieran Carroll. Condolences were offered to the
families of Leonard Enright, Nelius Hayes and everyone who suffered a
bereavement in 2018.
Kieran Carroll then delivered his farewell address as Chairman. The opening part
of the Chairmans Address focused on the contribution of Leonard Enright to
Patrickswell and Limerick. Leonard was a through-and-through Patrickswell man,
who led by example in every aspect of his life. He was a gentleman and always
performed his duty whether it was on the sporting field or in the world of
politics. Kieran also lamented the sad passing of our former Treasurer, Nelius
Hayes.
The Chairman was delighted that Limerick ended a 45-year wait to win an
All-Ireland Championship. He was proud that Patrickswell had three
representatives and that Cian Lynch had won an All-Star and Hurler of the Year
award. He acknowledged the sterling service of outgoing Secretary Martin Ryan
and Treasurer Seamus ORiordan. In the years gone by, Kierans father Jimmy
Carroll had been Club Chairman. It was Kierans goal to contribute to
Patrickswell GAA Club like his father had done. He thanked his predecessor, Paul
Foley, for handing over the reins in such good shape. He also acknowledged the
support of Willie Leahy as his proposer for the Chairmanship. Sean Lynch and
Nigel Carey were also singled out for their contributions as Vice Chairmen
during his tenure.
When Kieran accepted the role of Chairman, he had two objectives to keep our
finances in good shape and to preside over success on the playing fields. He
recognised the groundwork laid by Ciaran Carey and the subsequent County title
delivered by Gary Kirby in 2016. Gary was praised as an outstanding club man who
ended a 13-year Daly Cup drought and later claimed a Fitzgibbon Cup for UL. The
Minor Team management were commended for their progress in reaching a County
Final. The age profile of the team would indicate that there are many great
years ahead.
Kieran noted that Patrickswells success is built on support and togetherness,
irrespective of who holds the key roles. He was delighted that so many villagers
worked voluntarily and gave back to the club. He was grateful to the Camogie and
Juvenile clubs for their hard work and years of support to him. David Bulfin and
Patrickswell National School were also commended for the development of players
and promotion of hurling.
From a financial perspective, Kieran thanked the Finance Committee, the
Greyhound Night Fundraising Committee and the stalwarts who run the Club Lotto
every week. He acknowledged that it was difficult to raise money annually to
allow for club development. There was praise for Finbar OBriens hard work on
the recent grant application. Patrickswell GAA Club wants to improve its
facilities for future generations. He noted the support given by Limerick GAA
and Munster GAA to our grant applications to date.
The work of Muirne Bennis, Mike Shinnors and Mary Shinnors in Scor was called
out. Duggan Systems were thanked for their long association as club sponsor. In
closing, Kieran noted that our current values are handed down from the Founding
Fathers of the 1940s. Leadership is a tricky business and he always acted in the
best interest of Patrickswell GAA Club. His legacy was to leave things in a
better place.
President PJ OGrady lauded the Chairmans Address as the best speech he had
ever heard at a Patrickswell GAA Club AGM. PJ appreciated the calm and rational
manner that Kieran conducted his business. While the Well did not claim a
Senior County Championship title this season, other clubs envy us. We now have
seven All-Ireland winners and Cian Lynch delivered an All-Star and Hurler of the
Year. PJ was humbled by the large attendance at Leonard Enrights funeral and
the respectful marshalling on the day. He also offered his deepest sympathies to
the family of Nelius Hayes. He spoke fondly about Muirnes work with Scor and
finally congratulated Martin Ryan and Seamus ORiordan for their long service to
the club.
Oliver Mann was delighted with how Patrickswell GAA Club was being run. He paid
tribute to the outgoing Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer. Oliver highlighted
that our club is well regarded around the county. He was thrilled by Limericks
success in the All-Ireland Championship and lauded the book co-authored by
Ciaran Crowe and Joe Lyons At Last. In closing, Oliver praised the work of
the National School and the Juvenile & Camogie clubs.
Monsignor Lane focused on the hard work of the Chairman, Officers and Committee.
He was amazed at the time and effort invested in the running of our club. In the
21st century, it is incredible to witness the spirit of volunteerism. Monsignor
saw the GAA Club as the vibrant heart of the community. It fostered a sense of
belonging. Monsignor expressed his delight that Limerick won the Liam MacCarthy
Cup and that Patrickswell produced three of its stars. In closing, he offered
his condolences to the Enright family.
The following officers were elected for 2019: Chairman John McDermott, Secretary
Aedin Foley, Treasurer Michael McDermott, Vice-Chairman Seamus ORiordan,
Assistant Secretaries Jim OHerlihy and Bernard Hayes, PRO James McCarthy,
Registrar Paddy Carrig, Culture & Language Officer Muirne Bennis and Health &
Wellbeing Officer PJ OGrady.
