Moneyglass Set for First All-Ireland Final, Take Aim at Kilkerrin-Clonberne's Five-in-a-Row

A tiny County Antrim parish team rises through steady development under Maxi Curran.

Overview

  • St Ergnat's Moneyglass will face four-time reigning champions Kilkerrin‑Clonberne at Croke Park on Saturday, with throw‑in at 16:00 GMT.
  • The Antrim champions reached the decider after a 1‑12 to 1‑10 away win over Kilmacud Crokes in Stillorgan, where Maria O’Neill hit 1‑3.
  • Their run followed a first Ulster title secured with a 3‑10 to 0‑6 victory over Errigal Ciaran after earlier wins over Bredagh and Clann Eireann.
  • Moneyglass are the first club from Antrim to qualify for the All‑Ireland senior club final.
  • Manager Maxi Curran’s approach and a tight‑knit squad from a parish of roughly 103 people underpin the surge against far larger opponents.
