It was a bitter pill to swallow for the Leesiders, who have been UL’s victims on each occasion.

A stunning second-half performance from Clanmaurice, crowned by 1-2 from last week’s hero Jessica Fitzell, secured the holy grail of the All-Ireland Junior Camogie championship title for the North Kerry side this afternoon in Nenagh.

It was a first ever title for the Kingdom - who fielded players from the Clanmaurice club - the only senior club in the county.

Any week in Kerry is a football week, but when the Sam Maguire Cup is up for grabs, that applies to every second of every day.

Kilmessan capitalised on their second bite of the cherry to become AIB All-Ireland Junior Club Camogie champions for the second time after a strong second half performance against a resolute Clanmaurice at Silvermines.
