Kerry’s affinity with the All-Ireland Club IFC – not to mention Croke Park – continued yesterday with Milltown-Castlemaine claiming the county’s third title in the tournament’s eight-year history.

MILLTOWN-Castlemaine held off the determined Craigbane challenge and secured a Croke Park date in three weeks’ time.

A GOOD first half paved the way for Milltown-Castlemaine to reach the Munster club IFC final at Mallow yesterday as they withstood a strong second-half Newmarket comeback.

A goal from Cathal Moriarty inspired Milltown/Castlemaine to a narrow victory over Clare’s Clondegad in the Munster Club IFC quarter-final at Milltown yesterday.

COLM COOPER turned on the style for Dr Crokes on his home patch in Killarney yesterday where the home side cruised into the next round of the Kerry SFC with a 1-22 to 1-12 win over West Kerry.
