Clare’s Junior camogie side have booked their place in the All-Ireland semi-finals following a comprehensive win over Tyrone.

Clare 4-18
Tyrone 1-08
Venue: Edendork, St Malachys GAC

Two wins from their three group games has secured Clare’s place in the last four of the All-Ireland Junior Camogie Championship. Not alone have the Banner picked up two wins on the road but they have clocked up considerable miles in doing so, travelling to Northern Ireland twice in the space of a week overcoming Armagh and Tyrone.

From the start, Clare put their noises in front and this remained the case for the duration of the contest. They held Tyrone scoreless for the first ten minutes and denied everyone bar Roisin McErlean scores.

Feakle’s Regan Conway teed up Sinead O’Keeffe for the opening goal on eighteen minutes creating a five point advantage. At the other end, McErlean was accurate from placed balls to keep the hosts in contention and as half-time dawned the difference was four points.

A strong second half followed from Clare who limited Declan Sherlock’s Tyrone to just 1-02 in the second half while amassing a tally of 3-11 themselves, two green flags coming courtesy of substitute Aoife Shannon.

Since their July 6th one point home defeat to Roscommon, the girls in saffron and blue managed by Ann Marie McGann and Tim McGrath have responded superbly recording victories over Armagh and Tyrone with eight and nineteen point winning margins respectively.

Scorers Clare: R Conway (0-09 1f), S O’Keeffe (2-03), A Shannon (2-00), S Power (0-03), L McDonnell (0-01), K O’Gorman (0-01), A Cahill (0-01).
