Hurling means everything in Kilworth, as they showed in an epic 2006 season

An interesting statistic in Avondhu GAA is that no club has won the divisional JAHC title three times in succession. Kilworth lost the JAHC final of 2004 to Ballygiblin 0-14 to 2-6. They came back in 2005, defeating Clyda Rovers 4-17 to 1-12, before going to the county final where they were beaten by Fr O’Neill’s.

In the end, Kilworth, captained by goalkeeper Kieran Walsh, were crowned JAHC winners: 0-13 to 0-12. County minor Adrian Mannix was awarded Man of the Match.

Kilworth played Fenor in the Munster club semi-final before beating Tipp’s Knockshegowna in the provincial final. In 2012 Kilworth won the IHC and reached the Premier IHC final in 2019 where they lost out to Fr O’Neill’s.
