This week, Clare sports reporter Seamus Hayes joins Adrian O’Connor to discuss Cork’s landmark 2025 Hurling League final win — ending a 27-year wait. We dive into Clare Cup and Cusack Cup football, including Doonbeg’s solid win over Naomh Eoin, Kilrush Shamrocks’ victory against O’Curry’s, and Killimer’s strong showing over St Senan’s. Plus, we celebrate Ennis/Kilrush women’s rugby with their impressive weekend win over Enniskillan. All that and more from the heart of South West Clare sport!

Mick O’Dwyer R.I.P

Posted on by

GAA legend Mick O’Dwyer has passed away at the age of 88, leaving behind a remarkable legacy in Gaelic football that spanned decades and touched counties across Ireland – including Clare.

Best known for leading Kerry to an incredible eight All-Ireland titles as manager, O’Dwyer was a transformative figure in the sport. But his influence reached far beyond his native county. In 2013, at the age of 77, O’Dwyer took on the role of Clare senior football manager – a move that brought excitement and national attention to the Banner County.

Though his time in Clare was brief, it marked the final chapter of a legendary inter-county management career. His arrival brought belief, professionalism, and a lift in standards that inspired both players and supporters.
GAA President Jarlath Burns paid tribute, saying Mick O’Dwyer would be warmly remembered in Clare, alongside other counties he managed, for the energy and knowledge he brought to the game.
O’Dwyer’s contribution to Clare may have been short-lived, but his impact was lasting – a final act from one of Gaelic football’s greatest minds.
Mick O’Dwyer – a true giant of the GAA, remembered fondly in Clare and beyond.
