SENIOR<\/strong><\/p>\n

Senior:<\/strong> On Friday evening \u00c9ire \u00d3g beat Mullinahone in the final of the Dr Fogarty Cup in Templetuohy. Captain Paddy Murphy collected the division two cup on behalf of the Blues. Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g would like to wish Mullinahone all the very best in their up-coming south senior hurling championship final against Killenaule on Sunday, August 23rd. Liam Heffernan\u2019s Blues will not return to championship action until the respective divisional championships reach a conclusion – \u00c9ire \u00d3g have already qualified for the last sixteen of the Clean Ireland Recycling County Senior Hurling Championship. For a full match report on \u00c9ire \u00d3g\u2019s 4-33 to 2-14 win over Mullinahone please see the club website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Junior A:<\/strong> The Blues have completed the group stage of this year\u2019s north Tipperary junior A hurling championship and now must wait on the results of other games in group one to learn their fate in the competition. Knockshegowna won group two with Roscrea and Toomevara also progressing to the knock-out stages of this year\u2019s championship. The junior A team is managed by Greg Browne (manager), Con Morris, Michael Ryan and Conor Ryan.<\/p>\n

Junior B:<\/strong> The junior B hurlers received a walk-over from Toomevara on Monday, August 10th. In the Watch Centre North Tipperary Junior B Hurling Championship \u00c9ire \u00d3g were drawn in group one alongside Lorrha, Toomevara, Shannon Rovers and Ballina. Moneygall, Portroe, Newport and Borrisokane make up group two. Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g will complete the group stage against Shannon Rovers on Saturday, August 15th (in Nenagh at 7pm). This year the \u00c9ire \u00d3g team is managed by Cian Tucker (manager), Mark Long, John Paul King and Paddy Flynn. The junior B team would appreciate your support. <\/p>\n

Minor A:<\/strong> Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g were beaten by Roscrea (0-21 to 3-13) in an entertaining affair at St Michael\u2019s Park in Toomevara on Wednesday evening. For a full match report on this game please the club website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A number of injuries and a little misfortune hampered the Blues\u2019 efforts, but, thankfully, irrespective of this defeat John Manley\u2019s men have successfully progressed to the knock-out stages of this year\u2019s minor A hurling championship. \u00c9ire \u00d3g have now completed the group stage of this year\u2019s championship – in the previous rounds the Blues drew with Newport Gaels, but defeated Borris-Ileigh and Portroe.<\/p>\n

The 2015 competition is based on a two-group structure – the respective group winners progress to the semi-finals while the second and third-placed teams qualify for the quarter-finals. The Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g minor A hurling team were drawn in group one of the North Tipperary minor A hurling championship alongside Roscrea, Newport Gaels, Borris-Ileigh and Portroe.<\/p>\n

Newport Gaels lead group one on seven points, \u00c9ire \u00d3g are second on five points, Roscrea are third on four points, Portroe are fourth on two points and Borris-Ileigh are fifth on zero points. Roscrea have one remaining game to play against Portroe – should they win that encounter Roscrea will leapfrog \u00c9ire \u00d3g into second place. The result of that game will determine the Blues\u2019 seeding in the quarter-finals.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile group two has come to a conclusion. Kildangan have won that group with a one hundred per cent record with Toomevara second and Kilruane third. Burgess finished fourth in that group. Therefore Kildangan have qualified for the semi-finals while Toomevara and Kilruane are through to the quarter-finals.<\/p>\n

If \u00c9ire \u00d3g finish second in the group they will face Kilruane MacDonagh\u2019s in the quarter-finals and if the Blues finish third in their group they will face Toomevara with a place in the semi-finals up for grabs.<\/p>\n

Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g manager John Manley is joined on the management team by selectors Derek Lillis, Christy McLoughlin and Paudie Gleeson.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all identify with our own place. My place is Nenagh and I respect every man who is from every parish in Ireland who is identifying with his home. That\u2019s the breeding since the world was made. I see the club as nothing only a way of giving our locality an airing on the public stage. It gives the youth of our town an opportunity to play our games. That\u2019s what I see our club as\u201d – Jimmy Minogue<\/strong><\/center><\/p>\n
