Cork ladies football future looks as bright as ever following two Munster LGFA final double successes for the county’s youngest inter-county representatives last week. The Rebel U14 A and B teams each won their respective provincial finals, utilising squads bursting with talented players and playing an attractive brand of football. Held midweek, Ioannis O’Connell’s Cork held off Clare to win the 2025 Munster LGFA U14 A championship title in Brosna, county Kerry.

Three first half goals inspired Kerry to their thirteenth Lidl LGFA National Football League Division 1 title at Croke Park on Saturday. In a one-sided affair, the 2024 TG4 All-Ireland senior champions gained revenge for last year’s Division 1 final loss at the hands of the Orchard County. A first half surge instigated by Danielle O’Leary (two) and Niamh Carmody green flags saw the Kingdom deservedly add a second National League title in three years.

Galway claimed their first Lidl LGFA National Football League Division 2 title since 2014 in Croke Park on Saturday. Both finalists were relegated from Division 1 in 2024 and returned to the top tier at the first time of asking. An opportunity to add silverware in the shape of a Division 2 title was accepted by a Galway team yet to taste defeat this season.

CARBERY camogie players enjoyed prominent roles in Cork’s Munster U23 and All-Ireland U16A semi-final victories at Castle Road last weekend. A newly-created U23 inter-county grade meant Cork knew they would not be able to defend their 2024 All-Ireland intermediate title claimed at the expense of Kilkenny in Croke Park last August. Following a ruling passed at Congress, in 2025 counties with second teams could no longer take part in the All-Ireland camogie intermediate or junior championships.
