The victorious Mungret St Pauls team who claimed the division one crown
BALLYBROWN hosted an extravaganza of camogie with the 2025 instalment of Limerick Féile Na nGael finals.
Division 3: Glenroe v Croagh Kilfinny
The day started with the division three decider as Croagh Kilfinny overcame the challenge of Glenroe. Conditions were turbulent weather wise, but this didn't deter both teams as the standard of camogie on display was top class.
A late goal just before half time put Glenroe well in the game at half time.
Playing with the wind in the second half gave Croagh Kilfinny a big advantage but Glenroe never gave up and were within a score right up until the 19th minute of the second half when a very strong Croagh outfit lead by their captain Caoimhe Foley pulled away with a couple of well taken goals to claim the division three crown on a score line of 5-06 to 3-02.

Division 2: Ballybrown v Kildimo Pallaskenry
A healthy crowd was present for the division two decider between Ballybrown and Kildimo Pallaskenry. Ballybrown struggled to get up and running in the first half and went in at the break three points down, the turbulent conditions playing a part.
The wind showed no signs of slowing down with conditions also playing a major role in the second half. Ballybrown came racing out of the blocks and were relentless despite the efforts of a very determined Kildimo Pallaskenry team.

Kildimo full back Sarah Carroll was outstanding and did her utmost to keep the Ballybrown attacking threat at bay but the eventual victors soon started to establish their dominance as the half wore on, rattling over seven points to clinch the division two title for the second year running. Ballybrown win out on a scoreline of 0-10 to 1-04.
Division 1: Mungret St Pauls v Crecora
The the division one final between Mungret St Pauls and Crecora was highly anticipated. The rivalry between the two clubs has strengthened over the last number of years having met in U13 A and U14 A finals in years previous.
On both these occasions Crecora had come out on top but this year belonged to Mungret. Crecora made it extremely difficult for for their opponents as they were well organised and hard working.
However, Mungret took advantage of the windy elements in the first half and went into the break three points up with Sophie Lynch and Rosa Harrington's forward movement posing a problem for the Crecora defence.
The second half was a titanic back and forth and just as Mungret appeared to be easing to victory, Crecora, with Chloe Costello and Eabha Hayes in brilliant form, clawed their way back into the game.
There was very little between the teams before Mungret scored a goal to kill the game and ultimately seal the win, crowning the city side division one champions for 2025. Mungret won out on a scoreline of 3-05 to 2-04.
