Sinead Meagher<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

We extend our best wishes to Nenagh Handball Club’s Sinead Meagher and her handball partner Catriona Mullane from Tuamgraney who head Stateside this week to participate in the World Handball Championships in Minnesota. They will compete in the one wall and four wall championships in the under-19 competitions. The girls have been preparing extremely hard for these games under the tutelage of their coach Eamon Spillane. Sinead captured the world under-17 championship back in 2015 and if you’d like to read more about that achievement please click here.<\/a> <\/p>\n

Congratulations to Sarah Quigley, Grace O’ Brien and the Tipperary senior camogie team on their 1-14 to 1-7 win over Waterford in the Liberty Insurance All-Ireland championship in P\u00e1irc U\u00ed Chaoimh<\/em>. Grace was in scintillating form scoring two first-half points, the first of which was the opening score of the game which helped settle any Premier nerves. She was also very unfortunate to see a bullet of a goal called back by the referee for a free out to Waterford. They now face Cork in the All-Ireland semi-final in Semple Stadium in two weeks time while Galway face Kilkenny on the other side of the draw. For a full match report please click here.<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Congratulations must also go to the Tipperary intermediate side who had a comprehensive win over Kildare 7-26 to 2-4 in Hawkfield, Newbridge. This means that, not only have they qualified for the All-Ireland semi-finals, but have also topped their group. Nenagh \u00c9ire \u00d3g are represented by Hazel McAuliffe, Caroline Browne, Sarah Quigley and Ruth Hassett. Nenagh Handball Club star and Kiladangan player Sinead Meagher is also a member of this panel. <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We wish Jake Morris, Shane Hennessy and the Tipperary under-21 side the very best of luck in their Bord Gais Energy All-Ireland semi-final clash with Leinster champions Galway in Limerick on Wednesday evening, throw-in 19:30pm. Shane, following his assured performances between the posts for the Nenagh senior hurling team, was recently called into the panel. For those who can’t make it, the game is live on TG4. The winners of this fixture will play Munster champions Cork in the All-Ireland decider. <\/p>\n

Tipperary Water, Johnny Ryan Cup, County Senior Hurling League Champions 2018<\/p><\/div>\n

Senior<\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n

Congratulations to our senior hurlers who captured the Johnny Ryan Cup following a 1-18 to 0-25 win over Borris-Ileigh in MacDonagh Park last Tuesday evening. With the previous Friday night’s clash against Kiladangan having gone to extra-time, the last thing John Fitzgerald’s men needed was another draw but that is just what they got and in the extra-time periods they showed their metal and fitness to pull away from their opponents and win by four. Congratulations to all involved. For a full match report by Brian McDonnell in the Tipperary Star please click here.<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The lads will play Clonoulty Rossmore in the next round of the county championship on Sunday, August 12th, at 15:30pm in The Ragg. This game will be preceded by the clash of Toomevara and \u00c9ire \u00d3g Annacarty at 2pm. <\/p>\n

Gaelic Sunday<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

This week the GAA celebrates the 100th anniversary of Gaelic Sunday, a day when the association openly defied the British authorities in Ireland by staging numerous matches across the country without seeking permission through permits. Nenagh took on Ballymackey in Kilruane and the game finished a draw, 3-2 to 2-5. The local RIC sergeant did arrive but was refused entry to the game by a diligent gate checker as he had not paid his entrance fee. Please see the Guardian’s report (10 August 1918) on the day below. <\/p>\n

One Big Gaelic Family<\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n

Recently our senior team travelled to Portaferry to participate in a tournament hosted by Ballygalget GAA Club and this week two young Gaels were pleasantly surprised when they received a package with two \u00c9ire \u00d3g tops from their guests Michael and Noel. This was a lovely gesture lads and reflects extremely well on our club. Well done. <\/p>\n
