KILCUMMIN GAA NOTES WEEK ENDING 23rd NOVEMBER 2025
BY DONAL BARRY
UNDER 16’S
There was disappointment for our Under 16’s on Sunday morning at Fitzgerald Stadium when they went down 2-21 to 3-11 in the East Kerry Division 1 Final. In the end Listry proved worthy winners in a contest in which Kilcummin showed little of the great form that had got them to the final berth. That said the team fought back from a nine-point deficit to get back on level par and battled into the lead by the 40th minute before Listry aided by a number of 2 pointers pushed clear once again. Listry took early command of the contest and led 0-5 to 0-0 after the opening quarter. Kilcummin opened their account on the 15th minute when the impressive Liam O’Mahony raised an orange flag after a long-distance effort. Despite this it was Listry who continued to force the issue and pushed well clear by the 25th minute 1-8 to 0-2. Kilcummin who were on a 3-game unbeaten run finally found some of the form that sent them to the final when they hit a telling purple patch which included a rasper of a goal from Cian Stack which proved too hot to handle in the Listry square. This followed by points by Stack, O’Mahony, Joe O Connor and Aidan Huggard had the sides level at the break 1-8 apiece. Cian Stack into the wind put Kilcummin into the lead for the first time in the contest and despite creating a number of chances failed to push further ahead before Listry found the target for 3 unanswered points to regain the lead 1-11 to 1-9. Then the score of the game for Kilcummin, a wonderfully timed short kick out by Hugh Maguire which was collected by Tristan Murphy before Joe O’Connor continued the run down the line before sending a highball into the edge of the square with Liam O’Mahony at the end of the delivery scoring a goal. It put Kilcummin back into the lead by the 40th minute. Listry would score the next 1-6 of the contest to put them clear and despite a late flurry of scores including a Daragh Keane penalty it was to be Listrys day. Well done to all the players who gave their very best on the day and there is little time for a break as they face Na Gaeil next weekend (TBC) in the County League Division 1 semi-final.
