Kilbrittain Power Past Knockaderry, Marching to Munster Final Showdown
Kilbrittain have successfully navigated the AIB Munster Club Junior Hurling Championship semi-final, securing their place in the decider after a commanding 1-23 to 1-16 victory over Limerick champions Knockaderry last Saturday.
The West Cork side now prepares for a highly anticipated final against Waterford’s Kilrossanty.
Despite a slow start, Kilbrittain found their footing quickly, establishing a seven-point run that gave them a lead they never relinquished. While Knockaderry leveled the score briefly with a first-half goal, Kilbrittain maintained composure to lead 0-11 to 1-6 at the break.
The second half saw substitute Luke Griffin score a crucial goal, assisted by Conor Ustianowski, ensuring the necessary breathing room. Mark Hickey was the star performer, delivering a flawless display from placed balls to finish with an impressive **0-12** total.
Knockaderry’s cause was hindered by disciplinary issues, with two late red cards. Kilbrittain’s defence remained solid throughout, sealing a comfortable 7-point victory.
Final Score: Kilbrittain 1-23, Knockaderry 1-16.

St Finbarr’s Edge Clonmel Commercials in Thriller, Set for Semi-Final
St Finbarr’s Edge Clonmel Commercials in Thriller, Set for Semi-Final
St Finbarr’s advanced to the AIB Munster Club SFC semi-final after a dramatic 1-17 to 2-11 quarter-final victory over Tipperary champions Clonmel Commercials at Clonmel Sportsfield.
The Cork champions needed a strong finish to overcome a determined Commercials side. St Finbarr’s relied heavily on the scoring accuracy of **Steven Sherlock**, who delivered an outstanding **0-9** total, including several crucial frees that punished Clonmel’s indiscipline.
Commercials were resilient, finding the net through Cian Smith in the first half and then again through Seán O’Connor late in the second half, which gave the hosts a two-point lead with 14 minutes left. However, the Barrs’ midfield charge, led by William Buckley and captain Ian Maguire, proved decisive. A key late point from super-sub Cillian Myers-Murray and the final scores from Buckley and Maguire secured the narrow three-point victory for St Finbarr’s.
Final Score: St Finbarr’s 1-17, Clonmel Commercials 2-11.
