On 2nd October our Intermediate Camogie team took on Rower Inistioge in the Championship Semi Final. The sides met in last year’s Semi Final also, which went to a replay with St. Brigid’s narrowly missing out on a county final position. This year it was again Rower Inistioge who came out on top. The venue was the Kells Rd James Stephen’s pitch but bad fog on the morning meant the match had to be pushed back for half an hour. Read more

U12 camogie county champions- match report
Match report by Stephen Delaney
Friday evening, 16-9-2016, saw the conclusion of St Brigid‘s U12 season where they lined up against a very talented and determined James Stephens side in the Roinn A U12 County Final. A large Ballycallan crowd came to support the girls, this made the final feel like a home fixture and there is no doubt they acted as the 16th man that is often heard in post match interviews with elite athletes at top level sport, but this was something more than that, this was about parish pride and supporting your own, a concept that makes GAA and Camogie unique.

U10 camogie final training session 2016
Report by John Kenny
It was the U10’s final training session for 2016 last Monday 19th September. There was a fantastic turnout by all the girls, all 22 turned up and put in a mighty effort to finish out the season. Nothing new with this group of girls, all year even when things didn’t go their way they dug deep and gave it everything they had, and finished each match with great strength and massive heart. Each and every one of them are a credit to themselves, their families and their club and are a pleasure to train. Their futures are very bright. Read more

Glenmore were first on the scoreboard with two points in quick succession shortly after the throw in. However, the girls did not let this unsettle them and Laureena Murphy got a rasper of a goal in the 6th minute to kick off the girls scoring. Read more

All-Ireland victory for Aisling & Ciara
A massive congratulations to Aisling Dunphy and Ciara Murphy and the Kilkenny Senior and Intermediates who both won their All-Ireland’s last Sunday 11th September.
The Intermediate’s won their second ever title by beating Cork by a point which went right to the final whistle.
It was to be a great day for Kilkenny as the Seniors came out on top also, ending the 22 year wait for the O’Duffy cup and putting a stop to Cork’s 3 in a row bid! It’s fantastic to have club players on the teams and we are all very proud of both of the girls! Well done to all involved, players and management!
