There are huge celebrations in Kilmore GAA Club after its junior mixed rounders team were crowned All-Ireland champions on Sunday.
The North Roscommon club beat Galway City Rapparees in Mallow, County Cork, to be crowned national champions.
Founded in 2023 by Nicola Craughwell and Clare Connellan, the club fields men’s, ladies’ and mixed teams.
Victories over Myshall from Carlow in the quarter-final and Na Piarsaigh, Edenderry, secured a place in Sunday’s final where the club made history and secured its first All-Ireland rounders title only three years after it was formed.
The team is expected to receive a hero’s welcome when they return to Hillstreet on Sunday evening at 6 p.m. approximately.
