Last Sunday in Ruislip turned out to be a historic day for Kilburn Gaels as they won their first ever London senior hurling championship title. The hurling decider brought together a novel pairing in that Kilburn and their opponents Sean Treacys, had never met in a London hurling final. The game from a neutrals perspective turned out to be a disappointment as once Kilburn crashed home two early goals they never looked like losing and coasted home for a 3-11 (20) to 0-07 victory. The Intermediate final on the other hand, between London’s oldest hurling club and favourites, Bros Pearse and newest club, Michael Cusacks , was a lot more competitive. ‘Cusacks lead by 0-2 at the break but two second half goals by Bros Pearse edged them in front and they held on for dear life at the end to win by a goal, on a scoreline of 3-08 (17) to 2-08 (14). Here once more to tell us all about the action is Wexfordman and London GAA Chairman, Tommy Harrell.

In London last weekend we saw a repeat of last year’s senior football championship final when Neasden Gaels took on the champions Tir Chonaill Gaels in the Tipperary Cup final at Ruislip. Neasden also lost the championship decider to their fierce rivals back in 2008, however they took the spoils and their first Tipp Cup last Saturday. The win should give the North West London club a huge boost of confidence going into the championship which begins this weekend. Also over the weekend in a rather dramatic end to the Mallarkey Cup Final in junior football, Garryowen trumped Dulwich Harps in extra-time. There was wins also for Fr Murphy’s and Kilburn in Division 1 Hurling, while elsewhere on Sunday, London came off second best to Lancashire in this year’s Britain Junior Football Final in Birmingham. Here to tell us about the action is London GAA Chairman, Tommy Harrell.
