Official Cavan GAA Thread

[BallyhaiseMan]

I seen yesterday there is an ad in the paper for Regional Hurling Development Officer with Ulster Council for Cavan/Fermanagh. Is there much of a hurling scene in Cavan?

The 3 major clubs would be
Mullahoran-(hurling kingpins of Cavan and would comprise most of the county squad)
On Longford border,on main Cavan-Athlone road.I think they play in the Monaghan league
Ballymachugh- around that general area as well.
Woodford Gaels-amalgamation based in Ballyconnell,
Players from different teams in west Cavan would play for them.

Different years
Cavan Gaels
Gowna
have teams,im not sure if they have a team this year.

Baileborough also have one started up i believe.
Kingscourt/Cootehill have underage structures and teams in place.

Sure every young lad growing up and playing at underage isnt going to end up on your club senior team,
why not have another Gaelic sport as an option to play on??
i dont see any harm to it.

Aye yea, wouldn't have much thoughts on it either way.  Would be interesting to see how much support/interest there is in hurling in the county?

f**k all to be honest.
Ive seen 3 Cavan games,1 was against Leitrim,1 was against Monaghan,it was pretty awful stuff.
1 was against Louth before an Cavan qualifer in Clones i think it was.
The considerable Cavan crowd virtually ignored what was going on.
To be fair to the hurlers,they have improved a great deal in the last few years.
It would just be the hardcore hurling fanatics,that would be involved from my experience.
An awful lot of those individuals would have fathers/mothers from very strong Hurling/Camogie counties from down south,who breed a love for the game into them from a young age.
Nicholas Walsh was a very gifted hurler at underage,i believe his dad Tom is from down south/hurling background.

as far as i know its available to all clubs in the country.it was set up by the gaa,and sorted out through the different county boards.

[mylestheslasher]

Great to see the leaguers flying high in Div 1

[boojangles]

I don't know about the other results but the result given for the Drumalee game is the Reserve game. The Division 2 game was Drumalee 1.13 Kill 1.6.

[cavan4sam]

f**k this ash cloud anyway!

[Lawrence of Knockbride]

All very quiet round here. I heard a few reviews of some of the division 1 games last week.
Martin Reilly had his nose broken as Killygarry easily beat Gowna-word is that Gowna were awful. Killeshandra got an injury time goal to beat Ballinagh who had a certain Mr. Gaynor sent off for two yellows. Lacken had Trevor Crowe lined out at full-forward and were easily beaten by Kingscourt with the score not flattering them in the slightest. Any other news? Were two of our posters not in opposition?

gaels have been awarded the league title.ill tell yis all the news when i get a bit of time tonight.

Just beat me to it Dougal...


League title awarded to Gaels
by Paul Fitzpatrick



The Competitions Control Committee of the Cavan county GAA board have awarded the 2009 All County Football League Division One title to Cavan Gaels, The Anglo-Celt can exclusively reveal.

The committee made their decision at their weekly meeting last Monday night.

The match was re-fixed on more than one occasion, including last week when the match was fixed for Wednesday evening (April 14) on the 3G pitch at Breffni Park.

However, that game was cancelled on Tuesday night and it is understood that the CCC (under new chairman Pauric Mahon) have lost patience and have refused to re-fix the match again, instead awarding the title to Cavan Gaels who were, ironically, already the reigning champions.

Castlerahan were unable to play last Wednesday due to the unavailability of players, although it is understood that they played a challenge match the previous Sunday (April 11). The Ballyjamesduff-based club also played an ACFL Division One match, away to Mullahoran, last Sunday (April 18).

"Cavan Gaels have been awarded the 2009 league title," confirmed county board chairman Tom Reilly.

Castlerahan's inability to field on April 14 has, it appears, been taken as a concession of the tie by the CCC.

"The CCC awarded the game to Cavan Gaels after Castlerahan conceded the match," stated Reilly.

The club were to be informed of the decision yesterday (Tuesday) morning.

The Castlerahan club made no comment on the matter when contacted by The Anglo-Celt.
