TRUAGH/CLONLARA started their quest to retain the Clare Credit Unions senior camogie championship by dishing out a thrashing to Newmarket-on-Fergus.
Bob Caulfield’s side powered past the challenge of Newmarket-on-Fergus on a score of 5-10 1-8, their fourteen point victory is the biggest winning margin they’ve had against the Blues in championship.
Kilmaley were also victorious in Group 1 where they also recorded a facile victory, racking up 4-18 and only conceded 1-10 to Sixmilebridge.
There was no separating the East Clare sides in Group 2 as Scariff/Ogonnelloe and Feakle Killanena finished 1-9 2-6. Last year’s county finalists Scariff/Ogonnelloe are weaker this year with the loss of Ciara Doyle and Amy Barrett and they will need a considerable improvement if they are to win back the McMahon Cup.
Kilkishen prevailed over St Joseph’s in the second tie of Group 2. They won on a score of 3-7 2-5 against the Doora/Barefield outfit.
Both Clarecastle/Ballyea and Inagh/Kilnamona had byes in the opening round.
