Report

_____________________________________________________

Final: Blue Demons 82 Leixlip Zalgiris 60

Blue Demons game plan of forcing Leixlip out wide and into taking mid-range shots worked, as Zalgiris’ shots would not drop into the basket for them. The match started at a fast pace, and with MVP Liam Carmody proving invaluable on both offense and defence the Blue Demons were 22-17 up at the end of the first quarter. Eight points in the first minute of the second from the Blue Demons forced Leixlip into an early time out to steady the players, and the match remained close until the third quarter, with Blue Demons going in 16 points to the good at half-time. The Blue Demons would eventually build up a 77-51 lead, before closing out the match 82-69 winners, to retain the National Intermediate Cup Competition. Ryan murphy’s fast break at the end of the first quarter and Shane McCarthy’s accurate shooting at the start of the second gave the Cork side the cushion they would keep for the rest of the game, despite the best efforts of Romas Eidukas, Marius Kasperavicius and Kestutis Damulevicius for Zalgiris.

Final: Fr. Mathews 55 Meteors 45

A comeback wat the end of the third quarter ensured a first title for Cork’s Fr. Mathews. Both sides took time to get into the game and scoring was low. Meteors got off to a start first, opening up an 8-2 lead in the first quarter, however, a huge three-pointer from Emma Gallagher saw Fr. Mathews close the gap and get into their stride. another three-pointe, this time from Olivia Dupuy, saw a seven point gap 36 seconds earlier close to just one. meteors once again built an eight-point lead in the third before Niamh Dwyer’s scoring turned the game into a ten-point Fr. Mathews lead, one they would hold on to for what Dwyer said was an”absolutely massive” win for the club.[3]

Report

The Amateur Basketball Association of Ireland was formed in 1945. Prior to this Basketball had only been played in the Army as they were the only places where there were gyms. The first Leagues were played in Dublin in 1945 and by the 1950s there were All-Ireland Championships organised on a County basis much like the GAA.

The All-Ireland Senior Championship was a single-elimination tournament, played out on a Provincial basis with the four Provincial winners meeting in the All-Ireland Semi-Finals.

Antrim (6 Wins), Dublin (4 Wins), Kerry & Cork (3 Wins Apiece) and Roscommon (2 Wins) were the most successful counties. Only Kilkenny in 1959 were to break the stranglehold of these five counties, prior to Sligo’s win over Kerry in the last ever All-Ireland County Championships in 1973.

In 1973, a National Basketball League based on clubs was organised and this brought an end to the era of All-Ireland County Championships.

Final: Ballincollig 69 Keanes SuperValu Killorglin 64

An All-Munster Final between Cork’s Ballincollig and Kerry’s Killorglin served up a thriller. Three times the sides were level in the fourth quarter, but 11 points from Ballincollig’s Cameron Clark in the final ten minutes and a timely block by Ronan O’Sullivan with 15 seconds to go sealed the Corkk sides first ever National Title. Clark was named MVP for his 29 point total, and Killorglin could consider themselves unlucky to have come up against him. It was Killorglin’s first appearance at this level and Kevin Gray was well up to the task of matching Clark, putting up back-to-back three-pointers to get Killorglin into the game, and the battle between Gray and Clark win the first quarter was one of the features of the match. Daniel Jokubaitis scored 27 points to top-score for Killorglin and get them back into striking distance during an 11-0 run of points in which he scored seven. Late in the third Gray put Killorglin 46-45 ahead to the delight of the Kerry fans, however, Ciaran O’Sullivan levelled for Ballincollig from the three-point line, and Ballincollig dug deep to win the game 69-64 in what O’Sullivan described as a “dogfight”.

Semi-Final: Kerry 81 Sligo 39

Kerry’s experience, including three Irish Internationals, saw them win against Connacht Champions Sligo in the All-Ireland Semi-Final. Four Kerry players reached double-figures (C. O’Hanlon, M. O’Grady, D. O’Shea & B. burrows), while only two Sligo players, Tom O’Brien and David Pugh reached double figures. Kerry opened the scoring and were more accurate with their shots despite a valiant Sligo side, who had numerous missed shots, and only three scorers on the scoresheet. The home team were no match in the end for a Kerry side that boasts 15 clubs in Tralee alone.[1]

Semi-Final: Antrim 43 Dublin 41

Antrim came from behind in the second half to beat Dublin in a thrilling Semi-Final in Cathal Brugha Gymnasium. Dublin were up by 20-14 at half-time and midway through the second half but Antrim were 10 points up midway through the second half before a late Dublin surge left it a two-point game in the end. Mick Brennan was the Antrim star, scoring 28 of their 43 total, F. O’Sullivan and B. Collins managed double-figures for Dublin.[2]

Antrim 43 M. Brennan (28), B. McMahon (4), G. Hannigan (4), J. McKeever (4), R. Jameson (2), E. Brennan (1).

Dublin 41 F. Sullivan (16), B. Collins (13), C. Keyes (8), N. Nugent (2), D. Rochford (2).

Final: Antrim 67 Kerry 53

Antrim defended their All-Ireland Senior Championship which they won in 1962, and in the process denied Kerry an historic treble, as the Kingdom had beaten Kilkenny in the Minor and Junior Finals. Kerry led 28-23 at the half and it looked like they would win the treble, but a second half comeback by Antrim dashed their hopes. Antrim’s height advantage paid dividends in the second half and with five minutes left they were 20 points up, easing to a 67-53 victory. Four Antrim players reached double figures (G. Hannigan, G. Clarke, C. McKinney & M. Brennan. A. O’Shea and B. Burrows reached double figures for Kerry.[3]
