Senior
Hard luck to the Senior ‘A’ hurlers who lost out to Thurles Sarsfields by 2-14 to 1-19 last Saturday in Semple Stadium in the Dan Breen County Senior Hurling Semi Final. Bryan McLoughney and Billy Seymour were the Kiladangan goal scorers. A strong showing from Sarsfields in the final quarter proved to be the winning of the game for the Thurles side but our lads can hold their head high and were gallant champions throughout the 2021 campaign. Many thanks to the players for their professionalism and commitment throughout the year and to the management team of Brian Lawlor, Sean Treacy, Martin Nolan and James Flannery.
