TIPPERARY WATER SENIOR FOOTBALL

Congratulations to the new kingpins in Tipperary club football for 2016 Loughmore-Castleiney, following their 1-9 to 1-6 victory over Moyle Rovers in the Tipperary Water Co. Senior Football Final in Cashel on Sunday last. This was Loughmore’s third win in four years having being back to back champions in 2013 and ’14.
Leahy Park in Cashel was in splendid condition for the final thanks to the host club Cashel King Cormac’s led by Chairman, TJ Connolly and his colleagues who had everything in order for the final. Coupled with the wonderful weather the scene was set for a fascinating final.
In what was a close enough contest Loughmore-Castleiney just about had enough for Moyle Rovers on the day. Unfortunately the wide count took from what could have been a closer affair on the board but that didn’t detract from a tough encounter well controlled by referee David Grogan (Aherlow) and his officials.
Football committee chairman, Joe Hannigan presented the O’Dwyer Cup to a jubilant Loughmore-Castleiney captain Liam McGrath.
Man of the Match sponsored by John Quirke Jewellers Cahir, was Cian Hennessy (Loughmore-Castleiney).
