Aghabullogue in Munster Final 2025

Munster Club IFC Semi-Final

A late surge ensured Aghabullogue secured their place in the Munster IFC final, overcoming Askeaton-Ballysteen-Kilcornan 0-14 to 0-10 after an intense battle. Inspired by the outstanding Matthew Bradley, who finished with nine points, the Cork champions showed composure when it mattered most, outscoring their opponents by four in the closing stages.

Aghabullogue started sharply despite facing a strong wind, racing into an early lead through Bradley, Evan O’Sullivan and captain John Corkery. Bradley’s accuracy into the breeze was remarkable, contributing five points from play as they moved 0-7 to 0-2 ahead. ABK, however, grew into the contest, with Danny Neville and Joey Rushe leading the response to reduce the deficit to two at the interval.

The Limerick side continued their momentum after the restart, levelling at 0-10 apiece thanks to three Rushe frees and another Neville point. Goal chances came at both ends, with Aghabullogue goalkeeper John Buckley producing a crucial save to maintain parity.

The breakthrough came seven minutes from time when Aaron O’Sullivan was fouled for a two-point free, drilled confidently by Bradley. Substitute David Thompson and Colm Gillespie added insurance scores as Aghabullogue’s defence held firm against a late ABK push, sealing a deserved four-point victory and a Munster final date with An Ghaeltacht

Cork GAA Northside Urban Project 2025–2027 Launch

Cork GAA Northside Urban Project 2025–2027 

 

A Game-Changing Investment in the Future of our Communities

Cork GAA is proud to unveil a bold, energising and community-driven initiative designed to reignite

Gaelic Games across the Northside of Cork City. Backed by the Munster Council, the Northside Urban Project
is a dynamic three-year programme focused on growth, inclusion, and opportunity for every young person—
regardless of their background or ability.

  • This is more than a sports plan.
  • It’s a movement.
  • It’s a fresh energy for the Northside.
  • It’s GAA brought right into the heart of the community.

Why This Project Matters

The Northside is home to over 70,000 people, nine proud clubs, and almost 12,500 schoolchildren—a powerhouse of potential. But many families face barriers: economic pressures, limited access to facilities, and fewer opportunities to get involved.

This project is our answer. A chance to remove barriers, build confidence, and bring Gaelic Games directly to where young people live, learn, and play.

The 2027 Vision

By the end of the project, Cork GAA will deliver:

  • A Nursery Programme in every club
  • A 60% increase in underage player numbers
  • 135+ newly trained coaches
  • Major growth in school-to-club pathways
  • Stronger, more connected communities

Join the Movement

This is a transformational moment for Cork’s Northside—and we want everyone involved. Clubs, schools,
volunteers, parents, and young people all have a role to play.
