Sylvesters join elite band
It was a bit of a topic in the club after the hurlers win last Saturday so Mick Stuart compiled the following: This year, 2012, there are 39 clubs with Senior status in one or both of hurling and football. (Senior status is determined by Championship; Senior B hurling has been included). Of these, 16 have dual senior status, that is, in both hurling and football. They are:
- Ballinteer St Johns
- Ballyboden St Endas
- Erins Isle
- Kilmacud Crokes
- Lucan Sarsfields
- Na Fianna
- Naomh Mearnog
- O Tooles
- Parnells
- Raheny
- St Brigids
- St Judes
- St Marks
- St Oliver Plunketts ER
- St Vincents
- Thomas Davis
St Sylvesters will join this select band next year.
If you take Ladies football into account, there are just 4 clubs with
triple Senior status. (Note that there are just 8 Senior Ladies
Football clubs).
These are:
Ballyboden St Endas
Na Fianna
Naomh Mearnog
St Brigids.
Next year, St. Sylvesters joins this even more select band.
