THREE derbies are on the cards in the quarter-finals of the TUS Clare senior football championship.

Rivals from three different pockets of the county will be going toe to toe in the last eight of the senior championship following Monday’s draw in Caherlohan.

County champions Cratloe will meet Lissycasey fresh from overcoming Kildysart in the preliminary quarter-final. The sides clashed in the first round of last year’s championship when Cratloe had a 0-12 1-7 win. Cratloe manager, Colm Collins was among the spectators in Kilmihil on Saturday evening as Aiden ‘Horse’ Moloney’s side sealed their place in the last eight with a four point win.

North Clare foes St Breckan’s and Ennistymon will reignite their rivalry in what is a repeat of the 2022 quarter-final. On that occasion, Ennistymon recorded a 1-7 0-9 victory, they went on to contest the county final that season while last year it was St Breckan’s who reached the decider where they fall short to Cratloe.

West Clare rivals Kilmurry Ibrickane and St Joseph’s Miltown will lock horns in the quarter-finals. The Bricks were drawn as the final top team alongside the three group winners, their reward is a clash with their neighbours Miltown. Both teams lost out in their opening round games but have bounced back with successive wins. Their last meeting in the championship was in 2021 and finished 2-7 apiece.

Having gone to extra time in last year’s quarter-final, the showdown of Éire Óg and St Joseph’s Doora/Barefield gives The Parish a chance to make amends against one of the most fancied sides to lift the Jack Daly.

In the TUS Clare IFC, last year’s beaten finalists Kilrush Shamrocks will meet Cooraclare, Naomh Eoin take on the Banner, Wolfe Tones are to face Shannon Gaels while O’Currys who prevailed in the preliminary quarter-final at the weekend are to go up against Clondegad.
