Kerry Petroleum Senior Club Championship Semi Final Match Report, Templenoe V Dingle
Kerry Petroleum Senior Football Club Championship, Semi-Final.
Templenoe 0-14, Dingle 0-10.
Last Saturday was yet another historic evening for the Club, with the Templenoe senior footballers reaching the Senior Club Final for the first time ever after overcoming Dingle in a keenly contested game played before a very large crowd evening in Templenoe. All in the club can now look forward with great pride and enthusiasm to the final against Kerins O’Rahilly, sometime in October, with a few rounds of the County Championship to be played in advance.
Dingle had the brighter start with the first score of the game through a Gavin H Curran free. But just as quickly things turned sour when they were reduced to 14 men, with Dylan Geaney one of their key forwards receiving his marching orders following an off the ball incident. This put the West Kerry men at a disadvantage for pretty much the whole game, but to their credit they battled very hard from start to finish and never allowed Templenoe to pull too far clear. Indeed Barry O’Sullivan doubled Dingle lead with a free soon after and they almost followed this up with a goal only for the ball to be cleared off the line. Stephen O’Sullivan finally opened Templenoe’s account 10 minutes in. The hosts were somewhat sloppy when in possession early on and it took time for them to settle into this game, while Dingle were keeping the score board ticking over with frees, Gavin H Curran added his second of the day from a placed ball in the 12th minute. However, not for the first time in this competition John Rice popped up from the back to get his name on the score sheet with a long range effort to spark life into Templenoe. This made the score 0-02 to 0-03 at the end of the first quarter. Paul Geaney was unlucky to see his point effort come off the upright in the ensuing play, but Templenoe were now starting to get a bit of rhythm going when on the offensive. Killian Spillane (f), Aidan Crowley and Gavin Crowley all split the posts to put the hosts two points up. Dingle responded in kind with Niall Geaney and Tom O’Sullivan (f) both hitting the target to tie the scores again. The hosts though finished the first half with a flourish, courtesy of scores from Killian Spillane, Colin Crowley and Aidan Crowley (f) to give them a three points cushion at the break,
Half Time Score: Templenoe 0-08, Dingle 0-05.
Dingle had chances to narrow the gap after the restart, but their shooting left them down. Yet, Paul Geaney did pull one back in the 37th minute, before two points on the trot from Stephen O’Sullivan one from free and one from play saw the hosts open up a four points gap. Dingle are not County League Division One champions for nothing and they refused to let Templenoe push on. Two white flags in quick succession from Ruadhan McCarthy and Barry O’Sullivan saw the visitors make the score 0-10 to 0-08 by the end of the first quarter. Templenoe then suffered a blow with Stephen O’Sullivan having to retire injured, but his replacement Cian Hallissey did not let the side down when introduced. Killian Spillane and Sean Sheehan restored Templenoe’s lead to four points with two neat scores. But back again came Dingle with Barry O’Sullivan once again to the fore to keep them within one goal of their opponents. Then came perhaps the pivotal score of the game, when Killian Spillane won a mark despite intense pressure from the Dingle defence to thump the ball over the bar. Coming into the home straight, Tom O’Sullivan (f) and Killian Spillane exchanged scores. Dingle needed a goal and they frantically tried to get one in the closing minutes, but Mark Looney and his defence withstood the late sieges and duly saw out the game for a massive win for the Club.
Well done to all the players and management on this remarkable achievement of reaching the Senior Club Final and commiserations to Dingle. This is some turnaround for Templenoe, especially when one considers we were a Novice Club from 1998 to 2013 and were rooted to Division 5 of the County league from 2000 to 2011.

Kerry Petroleum Senior Club Championship Match Report, Kerins O'Rahillys V Templenoe
Kerry Petroleum Senior Football Club Championship, Group 2, Round 3.
Kerins O’Rahillys 0-13, Templenoe 1-10.
A deserved draw against Kerins O’Rahillys sees Templenoe finish top of group 2, the only team unbeaten in the group. As their reward, Templenoe will have home advantage to Dingle in the semi-final next weekend. This another fantastic achievement for the club, with the players continuing to raise the bar. Templenoe also reached the semi-final stage last year of course, but this is the first time the team topped their group in this competition.
The match was played in Strand Road before a large crowd on yet another glorious day. It was a good open and entertaining game of football with both sides attacking at every opportunity. Templenoe started brightly with Stephen O’Sullivan from a free and Killian Spillane from play opening the scoring. Then three points on the trot from the boot of Jack Savage (2f) put the Narries in front for the first time 14 minutes in. But there was never more than one point separating the sides in the second quarter. Killian Spillane with a mark and Stephen O’Sullivan from a free briefly edged Templenoe ahead to make the score 0-03 to 0-04 after 17 minutes. After that the points starting coming thick and fast for the remainder of the first half with Kerins O’Rahillys tagging on another four points courtesy of Gearoid Savage (f), Jack Savage from a 45 and a free and veteran David Moran. While Templenoe replied promptly each time with Sean Sheehan (m), Gavin Crowley and Killian Spillane all splitting the posts.
Half Time Score: Kerins O’Rahillys 0-07, Templenoe 0-07.
Kerins O’Rahillys were in more need of result than Templenoe, all be it that the visitors did not have a semi-final spot fully secured going into this contest. At the restart. O’Rahillys immediately pulled two points clear with Barry John Keane fisting ball the over the bar, before Jack Savage added another from a placed ball. Templenoe did reply with Sean Sheehan raising his second white flag of the day in the 36th minute to cut the deficit to one point, but it would take Templenoe another eleven minutes before they would eventually get their next score. Kerins O’Rahillys meanwhile were hitting a purple patch and had the next three in a row all coming from their sharp shooter Jack Savage, one from play and two from frees. This made the score 0-12 to 0-08 after 46 minutes and put the hosts in a strong position going into the final quarter. Templenoe fearing that this game was beginning to slip introduced a few subs, including the welcome return to action of Cian Hallissey in a bid to stem the tide. Killian Spillane thumped over a much needed score from a free, to keep the hosts in the contest. Then in the 28th minute came the game changer, when a high ball in from Gavin Crowley was tipped down by Josh Crowley Holland to Killian Spillane, who clinically finished the ball to the net. The sides were now level for the 7th time, but there remained a few minutes for either side to grab a winner. Jack Savage did nail one more free for the hosts, but Adrian Spillane was in no mood to finish second best and he duly equalized shortly before the full time whistle. Well done to all our players and management on securing a semi-final spot and topping the group

Kerry Petroleum Senior Club Championship Match Report, Templenoe V Dr Crokes
Kerry Petroleum Senior Football Club Championship, Group 2, Round 2.
Templenoe 0-10, Dr Crokes 1-06.
Templenoe sit top of Group 2 of the Senior Club Championship after yet another extraordinary result, where they edged Dr Crokes by one point in a tight contest. This win also means that Templenoe has secured senior status for 2023, which is in itself a brilliant achievement making it four consecutive years at top flight.
The match was played before a large crowd in a sun-drenched Templenoe last Saturday evening. Micheal Burns scored the opening point one minute in. Then Adrian Spillane drove forward for Templenoe, but his effort for a score was deflected out for a 45. Aidan Crowley with a slight breeze behind him converted the 45 to draw the hosts level. In the ensuing eight minutes, Templenoe hit four points on the trot to raise the expectations of the home support. Two of these scores came from Killian Spillane frees and then either of Killian’s frees came inspirational scores from wing backs Patrick Clifford and Gavin Crowley. This made the score 0-05 to 0-01 after ten minutes of play. However, there was no chance Dr Crokes were going to let Templenoe run away with this game, as they slowly started to reel in the Templenoe lead. Two Tony Brosnan frees just ahead of the water break left two points between the sides at the end of the first quarter.
On resumption, Crokes continued their comeback with a brace of points from Cian McMahon to even the scores. The visitors it seemed were weathering the Templenoe storm, with the hosts now struggling for scores. Having said that, the Crokes had chances to push on and create a gap themselves too, but they were misfiring as were Templenoe in front of the goal. Templenoe eventually got a much needed score five minutes before half time to regain the lead courtesy of a Killian Spillane effort from play.
Half Time Score: Templenoe 0-06, Dr Crokes 0-05.
It was all to play for at the start of the second half. Dr Crokes squandered two chances to get back on level terms with one wide and one short, before Stephen O’Sullivan had an effort diverted for a 45. Aidan Crowley once again did the business to put Templenoe two points to the good. Then came the Dr Crokes goal, following a quick team movement catching Templenoe open at the back, with substitute Daithi Casey setting up Cian McMahon who finished the ball perfectly to the net. This put Dr Crokes in front for only the second time in the game. Templenoe refused to panic though with team captain Gavin Crowley taking on the responsibility to score his second point of the day. The game was on a knife edge and both sides had goal chances before the second half water break, with Adrian Spillane going close for Templenoe after one of his trade mark runs, while at the other end Tony Brosnan looked like he might have a goal only for the ball to spill away from him at the crucial moment. Mark Casey edged Templenoe in front again with a well taken score to make it 0-09 to 1-05 at the water break.
Dr Crokes introduced Gavin O’Shea and Cillian Fitzgerald in the final quarter. Michael Potts brought Dr Crokes back level with ten minutes left to play. Templenoe were frantically trying to regain the lead, but their finishing was leaving them down. Templenoe hit a total of 10 wides in the game, while Dr Crokes were even more wasteful hitting 11 wides. But perhaps the defences deserve credit for putting pressure on the kickers. While Templenoe keeper Mark Looney in particular deserves credit for dealing effectively with every ball that came his way. In the end, it took a monstrous free from Aidan Crowley to separate the sides, just four minutes before the final whistle. Well done to all our players and management on this huge win!
