A successful weekend for Kildare hurling, football and camogie teams

Pride of place to David Herity’s hurling squad who secured an injury time draw with Offaly, which puts Kildare in the Division 2A final in a fortnight.

In the final, Kildare will play the winners of Offaly vs Kerry.

===============

Kildare will play Division 2 football next season after Glenn Ryan’s footballers beat Limerick by 3-10 to 2-7

The result preserves Kildare’s Division 2 status for next season.  Clare and Limerick are relegated.

Kildare play Meath in Newbridge next weekend.  The result of that game is crucial to Kildare retaining a place in the All Ireland series.

A win against Meath would ensure a 5th place finish in the Division, but that still might not be enough to avoid the Tailteann Cup.

Next Sunday’s game will be the last to be held in St. Conleth’s Park, ahead of it being demolished.

===============

Diane O Hora’s Kildare women footballers were away to Sligo in the Lidl Ladies Division 3 League.

Final score: Kildare 3-15 Sligo 1-5
