Five-time All-Ireland winner Kyle Hayes taken to hospital after club game
Hayes was forced out of last Friday night's drawn game with Newcastle West after an incident which also saw defender Maurice Murphy red carded by referee Johnny Murphy. 27-year-old Hayes was placed in a neck brace and checked out by medics before being taken to hospital.
Hayes' Kildimo-Pallaskenry's club play Newcastle West in senior football championship action at Rathkeale this Friday evening. It seems unlikely that Hayes, who also plays club football, will be involved in that one.
The Kildimo-Pallaskenry hurlers are back in action the weekend after next and he may return for that one depending on how his recovery goes.

Paul Madden replaces Peter Keane as Clare football boss
Paul Madden has been appointed as the new Clare senior football boss. Former Éire Óg Ennis manager Madden replaces Peter Keane after the Kerry native departed the role after only a year in charge of the Banner footballers. Madden has taken the role on for a three-year term, having led Éire Óg to three Clare SFC crowns during his stint in charge of their senior footballers. His backroom team will be confirmed at a later time. The Banner were Munster runners-up this year, losing the provincial final to eventual All-Ireland winners Kerry.

Ireland's Eve McMahon makes move on second day of European Championships
Ireland's Eve McMahon jumped to the leading pack of contenders on the second day of the European Championships for the ILCA 6 women's one-person dinghy in Sweden after a solid day of racing. Her start to the series saw her disqualified from the opening race on Monday that incurred a maximum points penalty. However, once three races were sailed on day two, the single event discard allowed her to drop that score. A 10th place followed by a second, delivered a nice bounce in the standings up to fifth place overall. READ MORE The Howth sailor made Irish sailing history in May when she won bronze at the world championships in China and is looking to close out her 2025 season on a similar high. Meanwhile, her older brother Ewan has also had a strong start to his ILCA 7 men's event though slipped slightly in the standings to sixth overall after day two in Marstrand when he scored second and 10th places. Any top 10 place by the end of the qualification round that ends on Wednesday would be a commendable score and a solid attacking base for the three days of Gold fleet racing that follows before the championship outcome is decided on Saturday. For Ewan McMahon, his current standing sees him ahead of double Olympian team-mate Finn Lynch who is currently 12th European in 15th overall. Notably, McMahon is only two points off first overall while Lynch is only eight points behind his team-mate. The entire 153-boat men's fleet is split into three flights to manage the qualification round but all the top boats will race together from Thursday in the final series. The picturesque Marstrand venue north of Gothenburg on Sweden's west coast is proving highly tricky as a strong swell with light winds is making spotting windshifts difficult. After a breezy start to the championships on Monday, the forecast for the remainder of the week is for continued light conditions that raise the risk of deep results so the sailors will maintain conservative strategies to avoid high scores.

Thomas Frank leaves Yves Bissouma out of Spurs' Super Cup squad due to lateness
European Super Cup Final: Paris Saint-Germain v Tottenham Hotspur, Stadio Friuli, Udine, 8pm Irish time – Live on RTÉ 2 Thomas Frank has flexed his muscles with Tottenham's squad by excluding Yves Bissouma from the travelling party to face Paris Saint-Germain owing to persistent lateness. Spurs make their Uefa Super Cup debut in Udine on Wednesday in a fiendish early test for their manager, who is overseeing his first pre-season since moving from Brentford in June. Frank has wasted no time pressing home his standards and explained he had opted against selecting Bissouma, the Mali international midfielder, because of multiple lapses. 'Bissouma has not travelled with the team because of disciplinary reasons,' Frank said after their arrival in northeast Italy. 'He has been late several times and the latest time was one too many. With everything you need to give your players a lot of love but also have demands and there also need to be consequences. This time there was a consequence for that.' Frank suggested the punishment applied only to this fixture and that he would 'follow up when I come home'. READ MORE The infraction will heighten doubts over Bissouma's future. He has entered the final year of his contract with little sign a new deal is imminent and his three seasons at Tottenham have been decidedly mixed. The club suspended him from the trip to Leicester last August after he was recorded inhaling nitrous oxide and their former manager Ange Postecoglou said he 'sometimes lets the game drift by him' after the defeat by Fulham in March. Although the Super Cup sits below Uefa's three other major club competitions in terms of prestige, Frank played up the importance of following their Europa League win by toppling the Champions League holders. 'It's a massive game,' he said. 'A great challenge and an even bigger opportunity. That's how my brain works, I see opportunities instead of pressure. So for me, massive opportunity. We will definitely embrace it and we will do everything.' Spurs' squad for the coming Premier League season remains incomplete and they are trying to sign Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace under the noses of Arsenal. Frank did not take the bait when asked about any deal for the forward. 'There are a lot of good players out there, there are also a few from the PSG team, but I don't think we can buy them right now.' he said. 'In general, players in and players out, I'm only speaking if something is done or not done.' Frank must improvise in attack given the long-term absences of James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski. On the brighter side, Dominic Solanke has recovered from an ankle injury that has plagued his summer and should take a place on the bench. Destiny Udogie is also available after a knee problem. – Guardian
