As a club, we would like to congratulate Kevin Maguire on his outstanding intercounty footballing career with Westmeath and wish him the very best of luck after his recent announcement that he is retiring from his intercounty career. Kevin debuted in the maroon and white back in 2010 and over his 14 years playing, he made his family, friends and our club very proud. During his time with Westmeath, Kevin helped our county to Division 3 and Division 4 league titles, an O’Byrne Cup title and the 2022 Tailteann Cup victory. Not alone did Kevin pay his dues playing most often with no. 3 on his back, but his exemplary behaviour both on and off the field led to him becoming county captain in 2021, and he served this role for 4 seasons. In doing so, he became the first Caulry man to ever captain our county team. Kevin is a true inspiration and role model for our club and our county, and we are so proud of his contributions. We wish Kevin the very best of luck in his intercounty retirement, but don’t go hanging up your boots yet Kev. You still have plenty of years of club football ahead!!

Caulry 1-14

Tang 1-6

Our seniors pulled off a vital win on Sunday afternoon last when they battled it out against Tang for their Round 4 clash of the SFC in Cusack Park.

Our lads got off to the best of starts and were three points up within two minutes of the opening; Conor McCormack pointed straight from the throw-in in which Stephen Connolly won possession. McCormack then converted a free after a Tang kickout was fouled before Senan Baker finished off a long-range effort having combined with Connolly. A Tang point on the 4th minute opened their scoring account but Connolly’s score two minutes later reinstated our three-point lead. The rate of scores then slowed as the next score didn’t come until the 17th minute, again Connolly finishing off this move with Emmet Nally playing an important role in the set up. During the preceding nine-minute passage, Tang did have multiple chances but failed to convert these thanks to the trojan efforts of the Caulry defence with Damien Dolan and Tadgh Baker shining in particular. Points from Tiarnán O’Donovan, Connolly and McCormack kept the scoreboard ticking over as the opposition’s last score of the half came on the 28th minute, this from the boot of their no. 11. Nally was last to put his stamp on the half when he converted a mark to give Caulry a 0-9 to 0-2 lead at the break.

Baker opened the second half account with a point from play after his initial effort when wide. Tang then drew two back with a mark and a free. McCormack converted frees either side of a point from Dolan (this coming after Sean Fox showed well under the kickout) to stretch our lead to nine. However, the opposition were handed a lifeline in the form of a 43rd minute goal. The men in maroon and white then popped over two frees to slice the deficit and give themselves a fighting chance as the final quarter began. The Caulry lads worked tirelessly throughout the game with every man playing his part; one such example saw Nally set up attack, having pressurised the Tang forward-line. This effort resulted in a foul on O’Donovan and gave Baker a chance to widen the gap to five with a free. The opposition then had a trio of chances, but none of these paid dividends as the last score of the game came from Alan Malynn who fired home a goal after a nice pass from substitute Sean Murphy, securing our lads an important win on a scoreline of 1-14 to 1-6.
