Longest Distance to Travel for a Club Game

[Eamonnca1]

The NACB territory is considered a "county" for GAA purposes. I'd say the flight from San Francisco to Boston would take some beating at 2704 miles

Sure Jamie Clarke has to go 10,000km to a club game.

Urhan GAA Club is about 10km west of Castletownbere - some of you might remember Ciaran O'Sullivan who played with the Langers in the 1990's. Its based around Eyeries. This part of Cork (Beara) is in the diocese of Kerry so residents are a bit bi-polar

Both Urhan and Goleen are a long haul - 2 hours - to Cork City not to mind onto the county boundary a mile or two north east of Mitchelstown.

There was a TD for many years from Main Street, Goleen, Paddy Sheehan, who would say, when demonstrating how isolated the Mizen is as well as the size of the county, that on setting off for the Dail he would stop half way for tae, without having left the county.

Say ... Malin v Kilcar 300km (188 mile) round trip. You'd do well to do it in 2 and a half hours each way.

Malin to Glencolmcille a wee bit longer. Over 100 miles each way

HARD TO BEAT THAT ONE
104.3 miles
Time: 3 hr 16 min

though this is further even if the AA recommend less time
GOLEEN CHARLEVILLE Distance: 112.9 miles (show in km)
Time: 3 hr 8 min

Hitting Glencolmcille on Friday, but I won't be bringing my football boots; a few tins instead!!

However, I will leave it to someone from Cork to give the final verdict taking into account actual pitch locations, bad roads etc as, unlike some Nordies on here, I wouldnt like to preach to someone about their own county.

"Preaching"?! Qui, moi? Mais non, just keeping you on your toes/hooves!

Don't be calling poor Mikey a donkey.

No wonder Conor Counihan struggles to find his best team.

Cullaville to Maghery is probably the furthest in Armagh. About 39 miles and 1 hour 8 minutes according to google. I thought it would be longer time wise to be honest.

[shark]

Would suspect longest in Westmeath to be St.Paul's, Clonmellon to Athlone GAA (by about 1km over Garrycastle).  89km according to Google.

Urhan GAA grounds are in Eyeries though aren't they which makes them a tad closer to Mitchelstown than Castletownbere by my reckoning.

Good story about yer man Sheehan though..its true Mitchelstown in roughly half way from Beara to Dublin and still in Cork!

I travelled 4 and a half hours last week from Dallas to Houston for the Texas club finals!

Longest distance in Tipperary would be Carrick-on-Suir to Lorrha - 89 miles (143 kilometres)

[magpie seanie]

Longest in Sligo has to be St Molaise Gaels to/from Castleconnor. Almost 70 miles which is surprising in a small enough county like Sligo.
