Best wishes to Aine Keane and Tom McHale, who get married on Friday. Aine has been a keen supporter of the club for many years – a regular at club matches. Tom’s affiliations from a GAA perspective would traditionally lie with Tourmakeady, but his main sporting interest is with the very progressive Partry Athletic FC, who have had big successes in recent times. We wish them every happiness on the day and in the future.

Well done to the senior team who defeated Breaffy in the Mayo SFL Division 1A in Flanagan Park, Ballinrobe, yesterday, on a scoreline of 1-9 to 1-8. More details on the game anon. Our player Darren McDonnell was removed to hospital by ambulance during the game. This necessitated a long stoppage in the game. We are glad to let it be known that Darren returned home from hospital later yesterday and is recovering well today. We wish him all the best.
If you wish to be considered for an All-Ireland football final ticket, please email your name and telephone number to secretary.ballinrobe.mayo@gaa.ie, or text 087 9185 867. Closing date for receipt of applications is Monday next, September 9. Please note that we expect ticket supplies to be less plentiful than last year, given Dublin’s appearance in the final.

Hard luck to our U14s who were beaten by Claremorris in the South Mayo U14 A final in Flanagan Park, Ballinrobe, last night. Tom Carney’s report HERE, plus his half-time REPORT.
Ballinrobe has a strong connection with the Monaghan minor team who play Mayo in the ESB All-Ireland semi-final on Sunday next – twins Adam and Andrew Kieran, who play with Monaghan, are grand-nephews of our former President Jim Kierans, who passed away in February of this year. Note they spell their surname without an ‘s’, whereas Jim’s had the ‘s’. We received this tweet from @1jkieran (John Kieran) in the last few days: @ballinrobegaa Jim Kieran, he would have been torn between Mayo & his grand nephews Adam & Andrew with Monaghan Minors Sunday 25th. Of course we hope Adam and Andrew enjoy Croke Park – but not too much. You can read the club’s tribute to Jim HERE

Good luck to Donal Vaughan and Kenneth O’Malley, and their Mayo senior colleagues, against Tyrone on Sunday next. Alas Stephen Burke is injured and misses the minor game. We wish the minor team every success too. Hopefully it will be a memorable day for the green and red.
Not the road to Corker but to the U 14 South Mayo A Final where Ballinrobe will take on Claremorris on Thursday 22nd August at 7pm. The lads already have the South B title, having seen off Mayo Gaels in the final 4-16 to 2-12. Now the focus switches to Claremorris. Management team Fergal O’Malley, Padraig Horan and Liam “Gooch” Burke will have the lads fired up and ready for action. Come out and support the team as they aim to get BACK to BACK titles!!! Here’s the report from last week’s U14 B final. Roba Abu!
