About the Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta na bhFear Sinsear (Senior Men) 2022

The Comórtas Peile na Gaeltachta was inaugurated in 1969 as the Gaelic Football Championship for the winners of each of the seven Gaeltacht Area Championships in Ireland. There are two grades in each of the Men’s and Women’s competitions: Sinsear (Senior – literally Ancestors) and Sóisear (Junior) representing two tiers of Adult Football (rather like Major and Minor in American Sports) rather than age grades. It is hosted over a weekend in a different location in the Gaeltacht Areas each year. The Host GAA Club and the Holders also gain entry along with the Champions of the seven Gaeltacht Area Championships.

About Gaelic Football

Gaelic Football is one of the four original GAA Charter Sports of 1884, and the most popular, played to the highest level throughout the 32 Counties as well as 14 Counties around the World. It is 15-a-side and Goals (worth 3 Points) are scored as well as Points (Over the Bar – worth 1 Point). it is organised like most GAA Games on a County, Provincial and All-Ireland basis with Club Competitions providing the bedrock of the game, and the best club players representing their counties. Within both Club and County Competitions there is the League (usually run over the winter months) and the Championship (usually run over the summer months).

The Junior Club Championships are the third division Adult Championships, with the County Champions qualufying for the Provincial Championships, the winners of which go on to the All-Ireland Championships. The Britain GAA Junior Champions also qualify for the All-Ireland Junior Championships.

Report

Quarter-Final – Corofin 3-8 Fulham Irish 1-4

Fulham Irish raced out to an early lead, scoring a goal from Marty Hughes, and a point in the first four minutes, but Corofin replied with two goals in quick succession from Jason Leonard and Colin Brady to stamp their authority on the match. Ian Burke added another goal for the Galway side as they went into the half-time break leading by 3-3 to 1-3. There were less scores in the second half as both Corofin and the Londoners built up their wides tallies, however the lack of competitive mactches meant Fulham’s early hopes of a surprise win were dealt a fatal blow. Corofin won by 10 points in the end, 3-8 to 1-4 to book a semi-final spot against Moorefield.
