South Kerry League Group A Round 2:
Templenoe 1-6, Renard 2-4
A lacklustre performance from Templenoe saw them lose out by one point at home to Renard in a match played in wet and windy conditions.
Templenoe started quite well and got off the mark with a close range point from Martin Reilly in the 2nd minute. But Renard who had wind advantage in the first half replied with two scores of their own through Darragh Fitzgerald and Kevin Kelly. Teddy Doyle tied up the scores again after he converted a free, following a foul on John Rice. Then two quick points from the Spillane cousins Pat and Tom put the hosts 0-4 to 0-2 ahead at the end of the first quarter. Scores were hard to come by in the next 15 minutes, with the rain starting to cpme down heavy, but Darragh Fitzgerald did find the range for the visitors with a score from over 30 yards out. Then just on the stroke of half time, Mark Sugrue landed a 45 over the bar to leave matters all square at the interval.
Half Time Score: Templenoe 0-4, Renard 0-4
The opening 12 minutes of the second half saw both sides, but Templenoe in particular guilty of coughing up possession and handling errors. The home side just failed to take advantage of the strong wind and hit a number of wides as well. However, in the 13th minute John Moriarty put Pat Spillane through for the game’s first goal, a rocket of shot giving Renard Keeper James O’Sullivan no chance. Renard’s response though was imminent with Kevin Curran combining with Sean O’Connor, who hit a low shot to the net to level the scores once again. Teddy Doyle briefly restored Templenoe’s lead to one point, but then the host’s were dealt a blow when they lost their top scorer Pat Spillane to a second yellow card. The game was now on a knife edge and with just a few minutes remaining, a high ball in from Brian Sugrue was fisted to the net by Liam Sugrue. Veteran Dan O’Connor almost had a goal for Templenoe, but his effort was well saved by the goalie. Then in injury time a long ball from John Rice was gathered by Teddy Doyle, but he fired his effort just over the crossbar.

Templenoe raced into a three points lead with Stephen O’Sullivan and Pat Spillane (2) hitting the target.

The remainder of the half saw the hosts completely dominate proceedings, with scores from Stephen O’Sullivan (2), Brian Crowley and John Rice putting Templenoe 0-7 to 0-1 ahead after 15 minutes of play. Soon after the visitors task got even harder, when they had to replace Matthew O’Sullivan, after he picked up a back injury. Templenoe duly kept their foot on the pedal and a brace of points from Stephen O’Sullivan, John Rice and Brian Crowley extended the home side’s lead to nine points. Pierce McGill did split the posts for St Michaels/Foilmore in the closing minutes of the first half, but Templenoe immediately responded with a point from Pat Spillane.

Half Time Score: Templenoe 1-11, St Michaels/Foilmore 0-2.
To their credit St Michaels/Foillmore did stage a bit of a rally in the opening minutes of the second half with Cian Goggin and Pierce McGill finding the range. However, Templenoe were in no mood to let their lead slip and pushed on with Stephen O’Sullivan, Josh Crowley Holland and Pat Spillane all raising white flags, to leave the home side 1-14 to 0-4 points in front with 12 minutes remaining.

Templenoe 1-12, St Mary’s 1-7.
Templenoe commenced their fourth consecutive year in Division 1 with a five points win at home to St Mary’s Cahersiveen last Sunday.
The visitors were first off the mark will two points from play through Darren Casey and Denis Daly. But Templenoe who had the aid of a very strong breeze in the first half, hit back with the next six points on the trot. The first of these scores came from Brian Crowley, before Stephen O’Sullivan converted a free after the former was fouled. Then Killian Spillane added two more points, either side of a superb score from John Rice from an acute angle. Pat Spillane made the score 0-6 to 0-2, after he split the posts in the 10th minute. Soon after former Kerry star Bryan Sheehan beautifully landed a placed ball from over 30 yards out for St Mary’s. In the second quarter Templenoe continued to dominate, but their shooting left them down them at times, hitting no less than six wides in the first half. Yet, Stephen O’Sullivan did keep the scoreboard ticking over with another pointed free. Templenoe were almost in for a goal in the 21st minute, but a Killian Spillane effort was well saved by Keeper Michael Daly, however Templenoe managed to recover possession for Killian Spillane to slot the ball over the bar from a little further out. The away side had a strong finished to the first half, with Bryan Sheehan thumping over another free, before a dropped short effort at a point by Muiris Fitzgerald was deflected into the net by Mark Quigley. This put the visitors in a good position going in at the interval
Half Time Score: Templenoe 0-8, St Mary’s. 1-4.
St Marys were dealt a major blow at half time, after it emerged that County Panalist Denis Daly could play no further part after he picked up an injury. Despite playing against the strong breeze, the home side would go on to give a much better performance in the second half. As they controlled the game, although they did have some frustrating periods and found it difficult to manufacture scores against the gale force wind. Pat Spillane put Patrick Clifford through for Templenoe’s opening score in the second half, before Daniel Daly and Stephen O’Sullivan traded points. In between, a Killian Spillane effort at goal hit the post, Josh Crowley Holland did finish the rebound to the net, but the referee however had already blown his whistle for a free out. Then on the 18th minute came the goal Templenoe were searching for all through. It came about after Gavin Crowley got into a great position and although his shot was once again well saved by Michael Daly, the rebounded effort was despatched to the net yet again by the vigilant Josh Crowley Holland and this time his effort did stand. This put daylight between the sides with Templenoe now ahead by 1-10 to 1-5. Templenoe consolidated their position with two points from Stephen O’Sullivan coming into the final stretch. St Mary kept fighting to the end and two points from Brian Sheehan did reduce the arrears to five points, but Templenoe had already done enough to secure two valuable county league points.

Templenoe 4-08, Waterville 2-10
Templenoe won their first ever South Kerry League title with an exciting victory over Waterville on a very windy evening in Derrynane GAA Grounds. Following a prolonged period of rain the ground was very heave but held up well for the sixty minutes.
Templenoe played with the wind in the first half, but struggled to utilize this advantage, and it was actually Waterville who opened up the scoring with a point from Oran Clifford. Templenoe had to wait until the eight minute to register their first point with a Brian Crowley pointed free. Patrick Clifford and Brian Crowley quickly added further scores but Barry O’Dwyer responded with a free for Waterville. Templenoe had already worked two clear goal chances but both were saved. Waterville were far more clinical in front of goal and did not kick a wide in the half.
Barry O’Dwyer added another free on the twentieth minute, and this was followed by a frantic minute of play when a well worked Waterville goal by Eoin O’Sullivan was cancelled out by a John Rice goal sixty seconds later. The Templenoe goal swept straight down the field from Danny Cahalane’s kick out, to Pat Spillane and ended up with goal scorer John Rice to finish to the net.
A Stephen O’Sullivan pointed free for Templenoe preceded Waterville’s second goal which was finished to the net by Jamie O’Sullivan. Pat Spillane closed out the scoring of the half leaving the interval score Templenoe 1-05, Waterville 2-03. Templenoe kicked six wides during the half.
Brian Crowley kicked the first two points of the second half as Templenoe started much better against the wind, but Waterville replied with points by Sam O’Dwyer and Barry O’Dwyer. Pat Spillane finished off a good move involving Patrick Clifford and Martin Reilly to score Templenoe’s second goal and following a Barry O’Dwyer free, Martin Reilly kicked a rebounded effort off the ground to the net to leave the score on the 42nd minute, Templenoe 3-07, Waterville 2-06.
Barry O’Dwyer kicked two frees to reduce the arrears coming into the last quarter, and a further long range point by Eoin O’Sullivan of Waterville left a point in the difference. The decisive score came with five minutes remaining when Pat Spillane scored his second goal. Waterville again responded with an Oran Clifford point but Pat Spillane closed out the scoring with a well taken point from a tight angle leaving Templenoe victorious on a score of Templenoe 4-08, Waterville 2-10.

Division 1, County Senior Football League, Round 1.
Kilcummin 0-15, Templenoe 3-04.
A strong second half display from the recently crowned All Ireland Intermediate Club Champions, saw them take a full share of the spoils against Templenoe last Sunday.
Kilcummin who were greeted onto the field with a guard of honour from the visitors, opened the scoring with a point from play from Matt Keane. Despite playing into the breeze, Templenoe responded promptly and were awarded a penalty following a foot block on a Stephen O’Sullivan effort. Brian Crowley cooly slotted home the spot kick for the away side’s first goal. Kilcummin did reply with Gary O’Leary popping over a point, but it was Templenoe who were on top in the early stages. Josh Crowley Holland added second goal for the visitors when he cut in from the left corner to take on the Kilcummin defence, before unleashing a low shot to the net. Stephen O’Sullivan then extended Templenoe’s advantage with a pointed free. Kevin Gorman and John Spillane swapped points, before Adrian Spillane set up Stephen O’Sullivan for the Templenoe’s third goal, to put them 3-2 to 0-3 ahead after 17 minutes. However, the home side then started to get a grip on proceedings as they edged their way back into the game point by point. Two efforts from Matt Keane along with scores from Noel Duggan, Philip Casey and Mikey O’Shea saw them reduce the deficit to just three points before the break. In between Templenoe were almost in for yet another goal, but Adrian Spillane had his attempt brilliantly saved by former All Star keeper Brendan Kealy.
Half Time Score: Kilcummin 0-8, Templenoe 3-02.
Kilcummin came out on the field in determined fashion for the second half and a pointed free from Noel Duggan, followed by another score from the impressive Matt Keane saw them cut the Templenoe lead to the minimum. Templenoe’s best opportunity of a score in the opening minutes of the second half stemmed from a mix up in the Kilcummin defence, when Teddy Doyle superbly intercepted a pass, but his finish went high and wide of the posts. The hosts pushed on and eventually regained the lead with two well taken points from John McCarthy and Matt Keane. Brian Crowley levelled matter again after he combined with Stephen O’Sullivan to plant the ball over the bar. The next ten minutes saw both sides waste a few chances, but perhaps the most crucial moment was when Brendan Kealy made another wonderful save to stop a goal bound effort from Brian Crowley. With 10 minutes to go the score remained all square at 0-12 to 3-3. However, in the ensuing passages of play Kilcummin upped the ante once more and a brace of points from Noel Duggan (2f) and John McCarthy put them three points in front coming into closing stages. Ultimately, Templenoe’s downfall was their return of only two points in the second half, with Brian Crowley getting their final score from a free in the 26th minute. Although they did have one last attempt from Stephen O’Sullivan, but his effort was denied yet again by Brendan Kealy.

Scorers:
Kilcummin: Matt Keane 0-5, Noel Duggan 0-4 (0-4f), John McCarthy 0-2, Gary O’Leary 0-1, Kevin Gorman 0-1, Philip Casey 0-1 (0-1f), Mikey O’Shea 0-1.
