FBD Insurance County Championships
The 2022 FBD Insurance county hurling championships took centre stage last weekend as a total of 24 games were played across the senior, premier intermediate and intermediate grades. In group 1 of the senior hurling championship, Kilruane MacDonaghs recorded a comprehensive 4-22 to 0-10 win over Moycarkey Borris while Clonoulty Rossmore and Nenagh Eire Óg played out an entertaining draw game in FBD Semple Stadium on Sunday, the final score being Clonoulty Rossmore 0-19 to Nenagh’s 3-10. In group 2, Drom & Inch proved too strong for their opponents Templederry Kenyons as they took full points from Borrisoleigh on Friday evening, winning by 2-30 to 2-19. The second game in the group was expected to be a very close encounter, however Thurles Sarsfields had different ideas as they overcame Borris-Ileigh by 2-23 to 1-14 in FBD Semple Saadium on Saturday evening. Both games in group 3 took place on Saturday, In Clonoulty it was the meeting of Mid neighbours Upperchurch-Drombane and Holycross-Ballycahill. The form book would have suggested that “The Church” would have been expected to emerge victorious and so it proved to be the case as they scored an impressive 2-23 to Holycross-Ballycahill’s 0-21. CJ Kickhams Mullinahone and Toomevara met in FBD Semple Stadium and in another action packed encounter the game ended all square Toomevara 3-12, Mullinahone 2-15. Group 4 of the senior hurling championship was really the group to watch last weekend with both games ending all square. On Friday evening in FBD Semple Stadium, Loughmore-Castleiney and Kiladangan served up yet another very entertaining game that perhaps both sides may see as a game they could just as easily won as drawn, but in the end the points were shared on a full time score of Loughmore-Castleiney 0-18, Kiladangan 0-18.
