Kilmallock 2-15 Patrickswell 1-16

“Just like the ‘Well over the last few decades, our own youth policy is now beginning to reap dividends,” claimed a delighted Kilmallock club chairman Michael Fitzgerald at the end of an eventful game.

He said they had nurtured this team since underage level, and he predicted bright futures for such talents as David O’Shaughnessy, brother to Andrew, John Kelly, son of the legendary Paddy Kelly, and Eoin Ryan, all sampling the top flight for the first time.
