Four star Boherbue celebrate

BOHERBUE FOOTBALLER­S MAINTAIN IRON GRIP ON DUHALLOW SILVERWARE

- JOHN TARRANT

IT was another day for Boherbue to cherish after they maintained their dominance of the Duhallow Junior A Football Championsh­ip title by overcoming Cullen at Rathcoole last weekend. At the end of the hour, victory in the decider was most convincing – no surprise therefore that Boherbue were completing a four in a row of divisional titles.

Those lucky enough from Boherbue to be present greeted another successful chapter in the club’s history as Boherbue team captain Kevin Murphy, in the presence of loyal supporters, lifted the silverware in glorious sunshine.

A limited number of tickets were distribute­d to each participat­ing club, demand exceeding availabili­ty, and local pride in abundance as the flags and bunting of both communitie­s encouraged both the Boherbue and Cullen tea ms.

“Its was a big occasion, everybody looked forward to the big game, disappoint­ing, though, that more were not allowed to attend. However, the outcome was terrific, all involved with Boherbue were thrilled to be crowned Duhallow champions again and a chance to progress to a county championsh­ip in the next few weeks,” said Boherbue Chairperso­n Eileen Casey.

Much the same can be expected this Saturday when Dromtariff­e and Kilbrin meet in the E Tarrant & Sons Skoda Dealer Duhallow Junior A Hurling Championsh­ip Final at Kanturk.

Again, restrictio­ns are in place,

Duhallow Board Secretary Tony McAulliffe confirmed a limited number of tickets will be distribute­d to each participat­ing club with both finalists expected to stream the clash for stay-at-home supporters.
