The second half started well for Crecora scoring 4pts in the opening minutes of the half followed by 2 bally points to leave the gap at 4pts.Crecora then found the net to assert their dominance on the game, Crecora then added further points and once again found the net to put the result beyond doubt, bally got a goal in the closing minutes but unfortunately it wasn’t enough to bridge the gap. Crecora ran out winners 2:22 to1:13
JUNIOR B HURLING: Our Junior B Hurlers were in action on Tuesday night last in their final round of Junior B Championship as we travelled to Pallasgreen to play Pallas in, In what was a very competitive and entertaining game of hurling from both sides in which saw Bally leading coming in to the final quarter, Pallas had a purple patch going in to the final few minutes and with the aid of a fortuitous goal and a couple of points they managed to get over the line and progress in the championship at Ballybrickens expense . The game finished with a win for Pallasgreen on a score 2:15-2:10 . We would like to thank all players and management for their dedication and time throughout the year, and hope to see them again for next year.

The team and management have worked and trained very hard this year and a huge commitment has been put in by everyone. I hope our supporters and club members respect the effort put in and give them all space to get over the disappointment of how the year has gone.
JUNIOR HURLING: The Junior hurlers play Ballybricken-Bohermore next Sunday 18th in Hospital at 1pm but like the Seniors we cannot get enough points to avoid a playoff. We will be in a relegation semifinal and will know next week who we will be playing. Thanks to Captain Barry O’Shaughnessy and his team and panel, Manager James O’Doherty, Jimmy Croker, Pat McGrath, Richie Fitzgerald, first aid Mags Brazzill Buckley.

JUNIOR B HURLING: Mungret St. Pauls 0-12 Na Piarsaigh 4-20. It was a breezy wet evening in Na Piarsaigh on Monday 5 September when our Junior B hurlers played the hosts. Na Piarsiagh proved too strong for our players in the second half when legs tired and the rain started up. We still have a game to play against Claughaun to see if we make the quarterfinals.
JUNIOR CAMOGIE: We had a 1 point win against Feenagh/Kilmeedy in the latest match in the Championship which took place away to the hosts last Friday, on a very wet night! Full time score Mungret 1-11 Feenagh Kilmeedy 1-10
U10 CAMOGIE: Well done to our two U10 teams who headed west on Friday night to play Newcastlewest in the league.
U12 CAMOGIE: The U12 League continued last Thursday night with 2 of our 3 teams out. One at home to St Ailbes and one away to Tournafulla.
JUNIOR B FOOTBALL: Mungret St. Pauls 3-13 Kildimo Pallaskenry 4-5. On Thursday 8 September in Pallaskenry our Junior B Footballers got the better of the host club in a game where goals were plentiful. This was the second last game in the group with one final game to play against Claughuan. Mungret St. Pauls currently sit comfortably on top of the group with a clean sweep of wins.
SENIOR HURLING: Mungret St. Pauls 1-24 South Liberties 2-20 This game was an important one as we needed the win to help us stay out of relegation. See full match report elsewhere in LeaderSport. This was the win Mungret St. Pauls needed and with the result of the Kildimo Pallaskenry match on Sunday it confirms Mungret St. Pauls stay in the Senior ranks for 2023 with one last game to play against Blackrock who currently are on the bottom of the group with no wins.
U17 FOOTBALL: Mungret St. Pauls 1-11 V. Fr. Caseys 3-6. Having travelled out the road to Abbeyfeale, Mungret St. Pauls U-17 Division 1 footballers came up against a strong Fr. Caseys game on Sunday, 10 September. Mungret St. Pauls had control of the game for the most part, with Fr. Caseys trailing. It was two late goals for Fr. Caseys that changed the result of the game as they just edged ahead in the end. This does not make a big difference to our team as they top the table with another two teams, Fr. Caseys and Kildimo Pallaskenry. This was the last of the group matches for our footballers as await the semi final fixture.
U12 FOOTBALL: Well done to our U-12 footballers who had an early start on Saturday 10 of September 2022 as they headed to Ballymacelligot in Co. Kerry for the Eric Mason tournament. With one team pulling out the host managed to scrape a second club team together. Mungret St. Pauls had a good group rounds only loosing to one team the top three teams in our group ended up on the same points so it came to scores conceded at which we were the most and this brought us into the Shield Semi Final against the host replacement team. Mungret St. Pauls easily won this game and left us to play Keel who we had beaten in the first round of games. This again was a great game for our players as they used each player to work the ball up the pitch and kept the score board ticking over to finish with a comfortable win. The joint captains Sam Newman and David Buckley accepted the Shield on behalf of the team. Mungret St. Pauls would like to express their Thanks to Ballymacelligot GAA club on the hospitality shown to our players and parents during the day. This was a very well run tournament with each child getting a good game played.
U13 HURLING: Mungret St. Pauls 2-3 Dromcollogher Broadford 1-4. There was great excitement within the U-13 hurling group as they prepared for their first competitive Final on Sunday 11 September to be played against Dromcollogher-Broadford who they had met already during the year with it ending up level scoring. There was great excitement when the final whistle was blown and Mungret St. Pauls were announced the winners of the Shield Final for Division 2 Hurling. Captain Ruairí Dwane was handed the Shield from Bord na nOg representative, Denis Carroll. Well done to all the players and coaches involved in this age group, the hard work paid off.

NA PIARSAIGH

INTERMEDIATE HURLERS: Our intermediate hurlers were back in action on Thursday evening when they faced Croom in Mungret. We began the game extremely slow and following Pat Gleeson's opening score found ourselves 1-5 to 0-1 after 20 minutes. Some very sluggish play inside those opening minutes. Then David Sheppard produced some magic with 2 quick-fire goals along with points from Shane Dowling, Pat Gleeson, and James Daly to send us in a point up at the break 2-4 to 1-6 a truly remarkable recovery. The second half was much better from the lads with some excellent scores tacked-on. Shane Dowling added three more points to his tally and substitute Dylan Cronin gave the management food for thought with a goal and a point following his introduction. Last round of the group stages is on next weekend when we face Bruree in Clarina on Sunday Final Score Na Piarsaigh 3-14 Croom 2-10
Team: Shane Dowling(0-4), Conor Richardson, Niall Buckley, Padraic Heaney, Evan O Brien, James O Brien, Mark Buckley, Dean McLoughlin, Evan Gilvarry(0-1), Pat Gleeson(0-5f), Kevin Daly(0-1), John Fitzgerald, James Daly(0-2), David Sheppard(2-1), Kieran Daly

UNDER 13 FOOTBALL: Our under 13 were in action against Kildimo-Pallaskenry and led at the break 1-1 to 0-3. However, try as they might in the second half things just didn't got to plan. The final score was Kildimo-Pallaskenry 1-6 Na Piarsaigh 1-4.
