Kilkenny rebound against Dublin, Costelloe rescues draw for Limerick
Dublin 1-14 Kilkenny 1-19 Clare 0-12 Limerick 1-9 Tipperary 7-18 Wexford 0-7 Waterford 5-30 Derry 0-2 KILKENNY BOUNCED BACK from their defeat to Waterford with a crucial win over Dublin in Group 2 of the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship, while Caoimhe Costelloe's last gasp free ensured Limerick and Clare drew in Ennis in what looked like the key fixture in Group 1. The battle for places in the knockout stages appears set to go down to the wire as Tipperary racked up a big win over Wexford to remain the frontrunners for second place behind All-Ireland champions Cork, who were idle this week. Waterford also recorded a resounding win over Derry to keep their positive momentum going. The contest in Zimmer Biomet Páirc Chíosóg was always likely to be closely fought and so it proved, as there were only three minutes of play when there was more than a puck of a ball between the teams. Clare looked to be on the verge of a win as they produced a strong second-half display against the breeze after the sides were level at the interval. However, Costelloe struck late to ensure the contest finished 1-9 to 0-12. Limerick were in pole position after leading 1-4 to 0-3 after 22 minutes. Costelloe, Laura Southern and Lizanna Boylan helped the visitors on their way before Ciara Neenan's delivery was whipped to the net by Southern. Clare needed a response and four points without reply helped them earn parity at the break. Ellen Casey, Ziyan Spillane, captain Áine O'Loughlin and Caoimhe Cahill recorded the necessary scores. Joe Quaid's side started strongly with wind advantage as Dearbhla Egan and Southern pushed them two ahead, but they were held scoreless for the next 18 minutes as Clare drew level through O'Loughlin and Spillane. Costelloe slotted a long-range free before Roisín Begley responded for the Banner. Clare sub Jennifer Daly saw her piledriver rattle the crossbar and fly over, Costelloe tied the game again, but Begley appeared to move Clare to the cusp of victory before Costelloe's late intervention. Advertisement In another crucial tie, Kilkenny overcame a stubborn Dublin side by 1-19 to 1-14 in Parnell Park. Tommy Shefflin's side laid the foundations for this win in the opening half. After the sides were deadlocked at 0-2 apiece after seven minutes, Dublin taking the lead first through Gaby Couch and then Aisling Gannon, Kilkenny outscored their foes by 1-9 to 0-4 from there until half-time. The Cats hit five on the spin after falling behind for the second time. Aoife Prendergast grabbed three of those scores while Sophie Holden and Mary O'Connell also added points. Kilkenny struck a decisive blow when Prendergast latched on to Sophie Holden's diagonal ball before coolly slotting to the net to bring her tally to 1-4. She struck for three more scores before the half ended and although Aoife McKearney hit back for Dublin, an eight-point interval lead looked daunting. Their task became more manageable when Niamh Gannon found Aisling O'Neill, who duly spun inside a tackle and drove for goal, rattling the net just a minute into the final period. The Kilkenny response was emphatic however, as they bagged three of the next four scores via Steffi Fitzgerald and a brace from Prendergast. Dublin's effort was unrelenting with O'Neill, Sinéad Wylde and Áine Rafter cutting the gap to four points but Katie Power's 62nd-minute score saw Kilkenny home. Tipperary got their first win in this year's championship in Chadwicks Wexford Park, where they beat the hosts by 7-18 to 0-7. Karen Kennedy netted on Tipp's first meaningful attack to give them the perfect start before Grace O'Brien bagged a quickfire 1-2. Even though a Chloe Cashe free got Wexford up and running, Tipperary were always in control. Kennedy bagged her second major of the half while four more O'Brien points in the second quarter saw Tipperary lead by 3-9 to 0-3 at the interval. Róisín Howard got in on the act with a 33rd minute goal while O'Brien bagged two more for a hat-trick. Jean Kelly raised the final green flag as Tipperary exorcised the demons of last week's heavy defeat at home to Cork. An Abby Flynn hat-trick of goals helped Waterford maintain their 100% record as they outclassed Derry, racking up a 5-30 to 0-2 win at Walsh Park. The Déise led by 3-17 to 0-1 at the interval despite Derry goalkeeper Niamh Gribbin coming up with three point-blank saves. Flynn had 2-2 plundered in the first half while Niamh Rockett buried her side's third major. Beth Carton's five opening half points from play kept Waterford well clear. Carton raided for her side's fourth goal at Walsh Park before Flynn completed her hat-trick to ensure Waterford move level on points with Galway and Kilkenny.

Camogie round-up: Kilkenny bounce back, dramatic draw in Ennis
Kilkenny bounced back from their defeat to Wexford with a crucial win over Dublin while Caoimhe Costelloe's last-gasp free ensured Limerick and Clare drew in Ennis in the third round of the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship.

Kilkenny rebound well to hold off Dublin as Costelloe rescues draw for Limerick against Clare
Kilkenny rebound well to hold off Dublin as Costelloe rescues draw for Limerick against Clare By Kevin Egan The third round of games in this year's Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship saw Kilkenny respond to their defeat to Waterford last time out with a crucial Group 2 win over Dublin, while Caoimhe Costelloe's last gasp free ensured Limerick and Clare drew in Ennis in what looked like the key fixture in Group 1.

Kilkenny camogie are fuelled by disappointment says captain Katie Power
Kilkenny camogie captain Katie Power says his her side will be fuelled by disappointment as they aim to reach a semi-final for the first time since their last All-Ireland title in 2022. The Cats, third in the roll of honour, contested six finals in the 2010s and won the O'Duffy Cup in 2020 and '22 but have made quarter-final exits in the last two seasons, to Dublin last year and champions Cork before that. "The semi-finals were in Nowlan Park as well, so for Kilkenny not to be in it was very disappointing," Power told RTÉ Sport at the launch of the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Camogie Championship. "So the aim this year is to try get out of the group and get back to a semi-final. "But we're in a very difficult group and there are probably four teams, realistically, that can come out with the three [qualifying] spots. "Dublin beat us in the quarter-final last year. Waterford were in an All-Ireland two years ago. Galway were in the league final and have been in the last couple of All-Irelands. Derry as well. "So we're under no illusions at all about what faces us." The Cats made a 26-point winning start against Derry last weekend as group rivals Galway beat Dublin by six. "We're playing Waterford and Dublin the next two weekends, so obviously they're two crunch games for us," said Power. . @MartyMOfficial heard from some of the contending counties ahead of the opening weekend of the Glen Dimplex All-Ireland Senior Camogie Championship #Camogie — RTÉ GAA (@RTEgaa) May 26, 2025 All-Ireland champions Cork are going for three in a row and began their campaign with a 38-point demolition of Limerick last weekend. With such success comes great pressure says the Rebels' new skipper Meabh Cahalane, who is following in her father Niall's footsteps as he captained the Cork football team in 1985. "There's a target on our back any day that we'll go out," Cahalane told RTÉ Sport. Cork will face Tipperary on 31 May in their second group game, which Cahalane admits will be a "battle", but all eyes are on getting back to the big venue in Dublin. "We've one win under our belt now and Tipp going into this weekend, it's going to be a huge battle. "That's just what we're focused on for this weekend to get out of our group is our goal at the moment and ultimately to try and get back to Croke Park." The quarter-finals will take place in Croke Park, on Sunday, 6 July but should they make it, there will be a few changes from the team that last togged out there in last year's final. "There's been a bit of a turnover. There's been a couple of players introduced and a couple of players have left the panel. But I suppose that adds freshness to the panel." Net-minder and last season's captain Molly Lynch is among the higher profile players to step away, but Cahalane insists the younger plays are stepping up. "No one feels that they're guaranteed their place at the moment. "There's been a couple of girls who've gone from the panel. Molly Lynch and Haley Ryan, they were great players for us. "We're just delighted that there's another few girls that have been introduced to the panel... So they really putting their hands up." Some of the younger players introduced include Ava Fitzgerald and Millie Condon, who have been on the fringes of the panel, but are now ready to make major contributions says Cahalane. "Ava Fitzgerald, even Millie Condon, she was on the panel the last couple years... It's great for those girls to be getting games under their belt.
