See Ollie Mulchrone and Mary Kelly's photos of the day here and here. The Annual Kilmeena GAA Under 10 Paddy Golden Memorial Blitz made a welcome return on Saturday 11th June after a gap of two years due to Covid restrictions. The day started a little wet with a blustery wind but this certainly didn't dampen the enthusiasm of these future stars. 27 teams with almost 400 boys and girls took part. Six teams participated in the boys A section with Balla and Kilmeena topping their respective groups in a fiercely competitive section. Each facing the runners up of their alternative groups. The home team faced strong opposition from their neighbours Westport in a very close semi-final encounter, however the Kilmeena boys were unable to see off their opposition on this occasion losing on a tight score line of 1-02 to 0-03. Westport marched on to face Balla in the A final cheered on by the huge visiting crowd. It was a tight encounter from start to finish with the prevailing wind playing a significant role in the two halves. At the final whistle the cheers from the Westport camp indicated to all spectators, whose name was to be etched onto the silverware. Westport 3-04 to Balla 1-03. Eight teams contested for B section title in a large group with almost all west Mayo clubs represented. Ballintubber and Tourmakeady emerged from their respective groups to put themselves centre stage for the B final. Ballintubber continued their winning streak, proving too strong for the Tourmakeady side, outscoring them by 3-05 to 2-02. Section C was made up of four teams which were run off in one group with Parke facing the host club in the final. It was a tight competitive game, where the Kilmeena lads showed true grit but were outscored narrowly by the boys in amber and black. Final score was Parke 5-02 to Kilmeena 3-0 The girls section proved every bit as entertaining as their male counterparts. This competition was divided into two sections. Four teams contested for the A title; with Burrishoole, Westport, Carnacon and Islandeady all scoring well in their opening games. On the day, Carnacon ladies showed more hunger, and blazed through to the final with only Burrishoole standing in their way of the top prize. The final was a good competitive game of football, both teams giving it everything. The Burrishoole girls defended well but were unable to stem the scoring of the girls in green and red. Carancon emerged victorious on a score line of 6-02 to 1-02. Five teams participated in the girls B section. There was a total of 10 games played in this round ensuring the girls had lots of opportunities to showcase their skills. Kilmeena, Burrishoole, Louisburgh, Westport and Balla clubs were all well represented. The games were competitive and proved very entertaining to the visiting crowd. However, it was Louisburgh and Westport B who marched forward from the group. The final proved to be an evenly matched affair with Westport B outscoring their neighbours by 3-02 to 1-02 Well done to all the boys and girls who participated in the blitz and congratulations to the winning teams. We would like to express our gratitude to the Golden family, Carrowholly, for their continued sponsorship of this event. A huge community effort is put into making this blitz successful. It takes a massive effort to plan and run this event. So, to all the club volunteers; parking stewards, referees, umpires, pitch coordinators, first aiders, photographers, score takers, MC’s, shop assistants, kitchen helpers and those who brought food - míle buiochas daoibh go leir!

Hoping to build on our recent home victory over Achill last Thursday, our U13s fell agonisingly short in our away match against Islandeady yesterday evening, despite having just 16 players. We got off to a terrible start - we couldn’t clear our lines and the hosts clocked up an impressive lead by half time. After a quick rearrangement of our players’ positions at half time, we finally started eating in to Islandeady’s lead with three excellent goals. Some heroic goalkeeping by Jason Lawless ensured we stayed in the game right to the final whistle but victory eluded us in the end despite having three fantastic goal chances. It was a battling performance from our boys and their coaches are very proud of the efforts shown by them all. Hard luck lads. Next up are Louisburgh on Thursday week, 9th June.

Our start in Division 4 league had been delayed by an administrative error outside the club ! So it was nice to kickoff our first game in the correct division this evening at home against Hollymount Carramore. The first half of the game was a tight affair as we played into a stiff breeze but we still had a lead of two points at the break. In the second half , we managed to stretch out our advantage out and win comfortably in the end. Hollymount Carramore had the bare 15 players available and in truth this was probably a significant factor in the final result as we got a definite boost bringing fresh players off the bench for the second half. Next up will be Lahardane at home again ! Final Score Kilmeena 6-11, Hollymount Carramore 4-6

Division 1 U17: Castlebar Mitchels v Kilmeena Kilmeena travelled to the Mayo capital to take on Mitchels on the 27th of May. The conditions were perfect. Mitchels were there in strength and our lads were under no illusions about the task that lay in front of them. Without some of our front runners, due to other commitments, we were delighted to welcome back Rian Kilcoyne after long term injury and Conal Gill after his exploits with Connaught Rugby. We started well and in the first minute DJ fired over. Great score. Castlebar levelled and took control of the game putting 1-6 on the score board without reply. It was looking like it was going to be a hard day at the office but to their credit, our lads hung in there and stayed on script. Slowly we crept back into the game and by half time we were only two points down, 1-8 to 1-6. Castlebar will wonder how they were not further ahead as they had many gilt-edged goal changes during the half but we had Steven in goal and our defence stood strong. At half time we lost Luke and Rian and we had it all to do. I don't know how we gathered the strength to go at it again but these lads are different to the team that got lashed at the same venue last year. They are mentally and physically different. We tore into Mitchels in the second half and ran up a three-point lead after an Evan O'Grady goal. It was nip and tuck after that but we held out for a two-point win. FInal score: Castlebar Mitchels 2-11 : 2-13 Kilmeena Kilmeena Abú 🏁🏁🏁

Belmullet 1:08 4:11 Kilmeena Great team performance by the girls on the evening which earned them a well deserved victory. We have now qualified for the Shield final v Kilmovee Shamrocks which takes place next Wednesday evening (25th) at Parke GAA at 7pm. Please come out and support the girls. Well done and thank you to the U14 girls who participated in this fixture.

Our U13s suffered a disappointing loss away to Louisburgh yesterday evening, 19th May, losing 10-4 to 2-4. In windy conditions, the boys just didn’t settle and looked tired after a very busy week of sport for most of them. However, while the scoreline looks dramatic, we hope that this was just a bad day at the office and know this team is much better than the scoreline suggests. It’s back to training next Monday evening where some of the weaknesses will be ironed out and no doubt the boys will be raring to go for their next fixture, at home to Achill, next Thursday evening. Heads up lads and onwards!
