Pretty much every club/parish in the Cashel/Emly diocese goes by a double barrelled name.
E.g. Holycross/Ballycahill, Loughmore/Castleiney, Drom/Inch, Clonoulty/Rossmore, Gortnahoe/Glengoole etc. etc.
Im not sure why to be honest. Clubs/parishes in the Killaloe diocese for the most part are a single name, Burgess, Kildangan, Toomevara, Portroe etc.
And ironically enough, apart from the addendum King Cormacâs, Cashel and Emly are single-name clubsâŚ
Thereâs double barrelled parish names all over the place
âEire Ăg Annacarty Donohillâ is just taking the piss though.
A lot of clubs in Tipp have âaddendumsâ (Not really sure if there is a proper word for it? Moniker? Theyâre not really nicknames) Ăire Ăgs, Sarsfields, Kickhams, King Cormacs, Swans, Kenyons, Roverseses etc.
Not sure if theyâre an outlier that way, Limerick wouldnât half as many - usually instead the club has a title that doesnât include the name of the place.
Edit: âSuffixâ. Thatâs the word I was looking for.
A lot of them clubs would have been combined in the 1930s or 40s. Eire Og, Kickhams and Clonoulty/Rossmore all had split teams before the one club per parish became common place then.
Lahorna De Wets was a great name for a club.
Nenagh part of the county?
Kiladangan/ Kilruane
Ah right, Lahorna rang a bell as Ardcroney area to me
Ardcroney is Kilruane isnât it?
Itâs right in the middle of Puckuane, Kilruane & Borrisokane country alright.
Dunno what way itâs affiliated club wise tbh.
It is.
Thereâs a handball club called Lahorna still there to this day on the Nenagh-Borrisokane road
Yes it is. Awful cunt of a speed trap in there.
Rockvale?
Aye. Rockvale is the area around the graveyard. I know very little about the womenâs football but the club was set up a couple of years ago
There was an amalgamation with Ballinahinch in the camogie. Iâm not sure if this is more of that or not.
Loughmore giving Killenaule a fare hammering. Loughmore are obviously a top class team but Killenaule should be better than that
Mick Dempsey formally of Brian Codyâs Kilkenny running the sideline for Loughmore these days.
