Camross go in search of Croke Park date as Stradbally Parish Gaels aim for back-to-back U-20 titles

Sunday features two key fixtures across camogie and Under-20 football. Camross Camogie Club represent Laois in the All-Ireland Club Intermediate Camogie semi-final, while the Laois U-20 Football Championship final sees reigning champions Stradbally Gaels take on Killeshin.

Camross are chasing a place in the All-Ireland final at Croke Park, while Stradbally Parish Gaels look to secure back-to-back U-20 county titles against a Killeshin side competing in their first standalone final.

Camross booked their place in the All-Ireland semi-final after a commanding Leinster final win over Meath’s Na Fianna at SETU Carlow, where Arien Delaney’s side scored five goals in an emphatic victory.

Their Leinster campaign also included a quarter-final win over Westmeath’s Clonkill and a semi-final victory against Kildare’s Naas. The Leinster title was Camross’ first since 2001, marking a significant achievement for the club.

They now face Galway champions Killimor, who narrowly won the Connacht Championship by defeating St Dominic’s 0-6 to 0-5. The semi-final takes place at Trim GAA in Meath on Sunday, with a place in Croke Park on the line for the winner.

On the other side of the draw, Eglish of Tyrone face Ballincollig of Cork at Glenisk O’Connor Park, Tullamore, also on Sunday at 1pm.

Stradbally Parish Gaels v Killeshin in the Laois U-20 Football Championship Final in Laois Hire O'Moore Park at 1.30pm

The Laois U-20 Football Championship final is scheduled for Sunday, November 30, at 1.30pm in Laois Hire O’Moore Park. Reigning champions Stradbally Parish Gaels are aiming for a second successive title following last year’s extra-time victory over Graiguecullen.

They meet Killeshin, who are contesting their first-ever U-20 final as a standalone club. While some Killeshin players have previously played in finals as part of amalgamated teams, this is a landmark game for the club.

Stradbally have had a two-week preparation window since their semi-final win over Na Fianna Og, while Killeshin advanced to the final after a victory over Portarlington last Saturday.

The sides previously met on November 7, with Stradbally Parish Gaels winning 0-11 to 1-1. With both teams now reaching the final, Sunday’s encounter is expected to be a more competitive and closely contested match.
