Rhasidat Adeleke stuns fans with gut-wrenching World Championships decision after persistent injury battle
Irish sprint queen breaks silence with emotional update as her season ends in heartbreak OH NO Rhasidat Adeleke stuns fans with gut-wrenching World Championships decision after persistent injury battle IRISH sprint star Rhasidat Adeleke has confirmed she will not compete at the upcoming World Athletics Championships in Tokyo. The Tallaght star's season is now prematurely over following persistent injury setbacks. 2 Rhasidat Adeleke's season is over after a year hampered by injuries 2 The Ireland star has pulled out of the World Championships in Tokyo The 22-year-old had qualified for both the 200m and 400m, but after struggling to find her best form this summer, she has decided to end her campaign early. Dubliner Adeleke only opened her season back in June as she clocked 50.42 seconds in the stacked Diamond League meet in Norway. Adeleke narrowly missed out on a podium spot in the fiercely competitive sprint as Isabella Whittaker stormed to victory in 49.58 second. But a further withdrawal in Monaco hampered any momentum as she was forced to think about her injury problems. And Adeleke also pulled out of the Irish Nationals earlier this month due to injury. In a heartfelt statement posted on social media, the Irish sprint star explained her decision. An Instagram post read: "This season has tested me in more ways than I ever anticipated. "Lingering injuries and continuous setbacks made it increasingly difficult to train and perform at the level I expect from myself. "Following yet another recent roadblock, I'm saddened to share that I'm unable to finish out this season. "I'll take this time to heal, recover and do what's necessary so I can show up next season as my best self, mind and body. Inside Sharlene Mawdsley's 'delicious' yet atypical Tenerife holiday with GAA star boyfriend Mikey Breen "I'm so grateful to everyone that shows me unwavering support. It means the world. Much love - R."

Donohue hopeful camogie can soar as off-field drama replaced by on-field brilliance
Galway All-Ireland winner Aoife Donohue is hopeful that after a year of controversy for camogie off the pitch, its incredible showpiece decider can spark a new lease of life for the sport. Much of the conversation throughout the season surrounded the skort issue and the protests against the lack of choice – ultimately forcing change at a special congress in May – but that was in the rear-view mirror by the time the Tribe County lifted the O'Duffy Cup after a brilliant, bruising one-point win over Cork earlier this month. Donohue collected the Player of the Match award in an instant Croke Park classic, so it was no surprise that the PwC GPA Camogie Player of the Month for July/August followed. However, despite a mammoth push for a big attendance, only 28,795 turned up for a triple-header that also featured Laois' Premier Junior win over Armagh and Offaly's Intermediate success against Kerry. For Donohue, the hope is that for those in attendance – and those watching live on RTÉ – the quality of the senior encounter will spark an interest that can lead to further expansion of the sport. "I suppose it hasn't really sunk in yet, but yeah, Jesus, it was an unbelievable All-Ireland final," she said. "When you're out there, you don't really think about it too much. But the intensity and the tackles, the scores, it had everything. "When you're out on the pitch, you're kind of just playing in the moment, if that makes sense." "It's got a lot of coverage since the game and that's brilliant to see, but I suppose you'd be hoping for more support going into next year," she added. "You'd be hoping that more people now will start watching the game and going to games, I think that is the most important thing. "I thought last year's All-Ireland final (when Cork beat Galway) was a brilliant All-Ireland final as well and still you're looking at the figures of the game last Sunday, I think maybe 28,000 people there. "When you look at the men's game and you see a stadium full and even the ladies' football, I think there was close to 50,000 there, you are kind of wondering why we're not getting numbers at the games." It didn't escape Donohue's notice that the likes of the skorts issue was taking up a lot of the GAA discourse in May, but the actual performances of teams appeared secondary. "I think maybe the coverage during the championship, there wasn't really much around about games - I think the whole skort thing kind of took over and everyone was talking about that. "We still probably didn't get much support then after that as well, but I definitely think we're in a much better position. I think it's been an unbelievable year for camogie. "We had two really good semi-finals, the All-Ireland final was unbelievable and you'd be hoping we can go from strength to strength now." Aoife Donohue is named RTÉ Glen Dimplex Player of the Match for the 2025 All-Ireland senior camogie final #Camogie — The Sunday Game (@TheSundayGame) August 10, 2025 The final itself was mired in a fair degree of post-match controversy as Galway turned the tables on last year's final loss to the Rebels with the physicality of the contest really standing out. Cork manager Ger Manley said some of the decisions that went against his team were "shocking" with his side losing Hannah Looney to a red card just before the interval, but Donohue was happy with the way it was officiated. "I thought he let the game go, it's not something that we'd be looking at," Donohue said of referee Justin Heffernan's performance. "I think it gave us the game that we got on Sunday because it was let go." Meanwhile, Dublin's Kate Sullivan picked up the Ladies Football Player of the Month award for July and August after guiding her side to the Brendan Martin Cup. Sullivan scored 1-03 in the quarter-final win against Cork, hit 1-01 in the dramatic semi-final winner over Galway and added four points in the emphatic final win over Leinster rivals Meath.

Fermanagh boss announces shock exit after 5 years in charge
Fermanagh GAA have confirmed the surprise exit of head coach Kieran Donnelly after five years in charge of the county. Donnelly has stepped down from the role, adding to a number of inter-county manager resignations this season. According to a statement posted on Fermanagh GAA's website on Monday, Donnelly met with officers over the weekend to inform them of his decision. Kieran Donnelly has stepped down from his role. Pic: Stephen Marken/Sportsfile The ex-player has become the 12th inter-county football manager to exit their side following the 2025 season. Fermanagh stated: 'Fermanagh GAA would like to sincerely thank Kieran and his entire backroom team for their dedication and commitment over the last four years. 'Transitioning from Covid and the new playing rules has not been an easy task. 'While silverware may have eluded, Kieran brought a great culture and positive environment to the senior side. 'We wish Kieran, his family and all the backroom team every success in the future.' At the start of the season, Fermanagh were fourth in the Allianz Football League Division 3, having previously gained promotion in 2023. Donnelly's final year in charge was hindered by two near misses with the side throwing away a match-winning position in their Ulster clash against Down. Donnelly is the 12th manager to leave his role this season. Pic: Ray McManus/Sportsfile They were also level with Kildare in the Tailteann Cup semi-final with 15 minutes to go before falling away in the final minutes. Donnelly added in a statement that it was a 'privilege' to serve as manager. He said: 'It has been an honour and a privilege to serve as manager of the Fermanagh senior football team. I wish to extend my sincere gratitude to my backroom team for their dedication and professionalism throughout my tenure. 'The players have shown tremendous growth and development, and I am proud of the progress the squad has made during this period. I would like to wish the players, management, and supporters of Fermanagh GAA every success in the years ahead.' Naturally, rumours have begun to fly in surrounding where Donnelly will go to next. However, speculation had been rife that the boss was planning to step away ever since that Kildare loss. Donnelly had played for Fermanagh himself in the 90s, even appearing in Division 1 action before taking up a management role with the county's minor team.
