GAA Mixed Rounders
Finally, we extend our very best wishes to Kilmore Rounders, who will contest the GAA Rounders Mixed All-Ireland Junior Final on Sunday, 13th September at 11am in Mallow GAA.
Kilmore will face Galway City Rapparees in the decider, and hopefully lightning doesn’t strike twice for Roscommon opposition! The Rapparees’ Ladies team recently overcame Elphin Ladies Rounders in the Intermediate Final, so Kilmore will be hoping to turn the tables and bring some All-Ireland silverware back to Roscommon.
Best of luck to all the players, management and everyone involved with Kilmore Rounders on what promises to be a very special occasion.
