Report

London won the 2012 Christy Ring Cup (Division 2 All Ireland Hurling) by beating wicklow by 4-18 (30 Points) to 1-17 (20 Points) in the Final, thus consigning the South Leinstermen to their second Christy Ring Cup Final defeat in a row.

About the Christy Ring Cup

The Christy Ring Cup is the Tier 2 All-Ireland County Championship in Hurling, named after the great Cork player.

From its inception to 2018 it was a Double-Elimination Cup (dubbed the “Back Door” by the Press) and in 2019 was changed to two groups of 4, playing a Single Round-Robin with Semi-Finals & Final.

About Hurling

Hurling is an ancient Gaelic Irish Sport, and one of the four Charter GAA Sports of 1884. It is played with a Hurl or Hurley (stick) and a sliotar (ball) and is one of the fastest team sports in the world. It is 15-a-side and Goals (worth 3 points) are scored as well as points (over the bar – worth one point). It is organised on a Club and County basis like most GAA Sports and has County, Provncial and All-Ireland Championships. Within both Club and County Championships there is the Hurling League (usually run over winter) and the Hurling Championship (usually run over summer). There are about 12 Top Level (Division 1) Counties that play for the Liam McCarthy Cup, as well as the Christy Ring Cup (Division 2), and Nicky Rackard (Division 3) and Lory Meaghar Cups (Division 4). Outside of Ireland there are 14 Counties that also play Gaelic Football and sometimes Hurling, with London, Warwickshire and Lancashire taking part in the lower levels of the All-Ireland Championships.

About Rounders

Rounders is an Irish and British version of Softball and Baseball, and thought to be the ancestor of both. It was first codified in Ireland as part of the Original GAA Charter of 1884, but not organised until 1958. It is a Bat and Ball (also known as Safe Haven) sport whereby the batter attempts to hit a ball thrown at him or her by a pitcher or bowler and then attempts to run around the bases back home.

Report

Ger Cunningham of Cork won his seventh All-Ireland Poc Fada Championship in 1990 with a score of 61 pocs, one shot ahead of Tommy Quaid of Limerrick on 62.

About Poc Fada

An Poc Fada – ‘the Long Puck’ is a Gaelic Game where players use a Hurley to hit a Sliotar (ball) up the side of a mountain and down the other side in as few pucks or shots as possible.

The sport would have a similar origin to the Scottish Game of Golf. It is mentioned in the myths and legends of Ireland, when Setanta took his Hurley / Hurl and hit his Sliotar all the way from Co Louth to Co. Armagh in one go. The All-Ireland Poc Fada Championships have taken place in the Cooley Mountains in Co. Louth since 1961 in commemoration of the legendary feat.

Report

GAA Handball ran a Ladies and Girls Only Tournament in 2018, called She’s Ace. Both 40×20 and One Wall Competitions were held, with Catriona Casey of Cork winning the 40×20 Ladies Open and Mary Burke of Mayo winning the One Wall Beginners Challenge. Included in the events were a fun event for 11 and Under, and a Mother & Daughter One Wall Tournament, won by Carmel & Claire Reynolds of Mayo.

About

Handball is one of the Gaelic Athletic Association’s Charter sports of 1884. It is played on a court with three walls, and is very similar to the Handball played in America, Australia, Canada, and the variations on Handball, Pelota and Wallball played throughout Western Europe, and are all probably of the same origin. Handball is described on the GAA Handball website as the only real GAA World Sport. The World Handball Council says Handball was first played in Ireland.

Report

Galician Gaelic Football started in 2010, when efforts were made through social media and posters to start a few clubs, with Fillos de Breogan the first. Teams entered the Iberian Championship but, soon, enough exponential growth among villages led to creation of the Galician Gaelic Football League in 2013.

Estrelos de Velmelha (Red Stars) won the first two Championships in 2013-14 and 2014-15. Irmandinhos would win the title on points difference from Fillos de Breogan in 2016-17 and in 2017-18 would win again with a perfect 13-0 win-loss record.

About Galicia GAA

Within Europe GAA, there are two Countries / Regions where the Gaelic Football is played entirely by Natives in small towns and villages like in Ireland: Brittany (NW France) and Galicia (NW Iberia – Spain/Portugal). These two Celtic Countries both have Men’s and Women’s Leagues played on a weekly basis, rather than in tournaments like in the other World Games Counties.

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.
