Féile Peile na nÓg

Our under 15 footballers had wonderful success this weekend winning the County Féile Peile nan Óg Roinn B, hosted in Na Piarsaigh. We had a hard fought win in the semi-final beating Pallasgreen on a scoreline of 2-04 to 1-02. This set us up for a meeting with a very fancied Kildimo team in the final. We played against a stiff breeze in the first half but the work rate of our lads saw us enter the break leading by 3 points. Half time score; Na Piarsaigh 2-00 Kildimo 0-03. Our lads used the breeze to their advantage in the second half, proving much the stronger team, scoring a goal and four in the 20 minutes. The final whistle was blown and Na Piarsaigh were Limerick Féile Peile champions. Well done to the squad and management for the brilliant work put in since the start of the year. We can all look forward to the National Féile Peile na nÓg taking place on the last Saturday in June. Final score: Na Piarsaigh 3-04 Kildimo 1-03

Limerick Camogie

Limerick are Munster U16 Champions again after beating Cork 1-11 to 0-10 after extra time. Na Piarsaigh & Treaty Gaels strongly represented with Diarmuid Ryan, Manager, Kate Grant, Emma Doherty, Caitlin Ryan, Anna Rose Benson, Eileen Herbert, and Paul Doherty, coach. Well done to all involved. The future is certainly bright for both Na Piarsaigh and Limerick Camogie.

Ladies Gaelic Football

April 10th, 2024 – The date of Na Piarsaigh’s first LGFA game. 21 girls togged, and all played a huge part against a strong Askeaton side. Well done to team and management on the great work over the past few weeks. Thanks to all who travelled out to cheer on the girls as well. There are bigger days ahead for ladies football in Na Piarsaigh but this will certainly go down as the start of something very special.
