LIMEKILN ROUNDERS CLUB

Welcome to our Website, we are delighted to join our fellow Rounders Club, Erne Eagles, on the eteamz network. Our Club is located in Limekiln, which is a small community in Dublin 12. All our home games are played in nearby Tymon Park, on pitches allocated to us by South Dublin County Council.(parks department). Rounders,(Cluiche Corr in Irish),is very similar to fast pitch Softball and is one of the four official G.A.A.games,(albeit the lesser known).The game has been played in our area since the mid 1970s. Our present Club structure was established in 1994. We cater for teams of all ages, male,female,mixed,(COED),from under 13 years upto senior(adult) level.

2011 Season

Feile Cluiche Corr 2011August Bank Holiday Weekend. Limekiln took part in the full programe of games over the weekend. We gave our young players the opportunity of playing some extra games by entering 3 teams in  the under 14 Mixed section on the Monday. The Heath proved to be too strong, managing top spot in all age groups. Our under15 Boys had the measure of them in the premlinaries and but for a little bad luck and the odd close call not going their way could possibly have also beaten them in the Final.

  “Club wise, in the New Year (2011) we hope to see action on our Dressing Rooms, increased support for our Lotto and more players taking part at all levels. We call on our Senior Men to make a special effort to bring the Senior Men’s All Ireland trophy to Limekiln for the 1st. time, come on Lads,” to quote from the last years report.  Fingers crossed, there seems to be a move from S.D.C.C. to initiate work on the Dressing Rooms. Congratulations to our Senior Men who achieved their goal and became All Ireland Champions. This was a 1st. for our Club after over 30 years of trying, well done Lads. Not a bad return on a wish list. The Senior Men also captured the " James O'Connor Cup", when they paid a visit in early June, to Naomh Mhicil's fine facility in Moneymore Co. Derry, beating the host team in an exciting Final.

          We entered all competitions open to us, except for the Gary Kelly Cup, from which our Senior Ladies withdrew late on.  In Community Games our under13 Boys, under15 Girls & Boys won the Dublin section. The u/15 Boys & Girls went on to lose to Wexford in the Leinster semi-finals. At Feile, held in Clara Co. Offaly on August Bank Holiday weekend we had teams in all sections, including 3 teams in the under14 Mixed. The under 13 Boys won their Novice Plate. The under 15 Boys & 16 Mixed, having won all their preliminary matches, were both unlucky, collecting Silver Medals, with some close calls not going their way, they lost by 1 run to the Heath in the Finals.

        At All Ireland Level the Minor Men, Women & Mixed took Silver, the Mixed losing by 1 run, again to the Heath. The Senior Ladies & Senior Mixed, having topped their groups in the preliminaries, lost in the Semi-Finals. The Mixed went down by 4 to Ballon and the Ladies by 1 to Bagenalstown. The Senior Men took Gold in an epic match against the Heath. Having gone 9 runs down in the 1st. innings, the mighty men from Limekiln made a spirited fight back to level the score at 18 runs each after the regulation 7 innings. Indeed, but for a mix up with the batting order of the Heath team, requiring Limekiln to make 4 outs in the 7th. Innings, the game could have been done and dusted. In the 8th.The Heath batting first scored 3, Limekiln came up with 4. The 9th, started with the first 4 batters scoring for the Heath, with bases loaded and no one out, Adam Riordan, pitching for Limekiln, somehow engineered 3 outs without further damage. Limekiln batting to win the match, scored with their 1st. two batters but at the cost of 2 outs. The next 2 batters got to base and then Gary Kett hit a spin off, which was played by the Heath catcher, knocking the ball out of play and allowing the 3 runners to score. Final score Limekiln 27 Heath 25. The Men who made history for our Club were, Adam Riordan (pitcher), Darren Goode (left outfield), Eddie Healy( short stop), Christopher Hughes (1st. base), Dashmir Hoaxha (3rd. Base), Michael O’Connell (2nd base), Gary Kett (right outfield), John Nolan ( right outfield), Shane Murtagh ( catcher), David Ryan, out through injury, did a stand out job as coach on the day. Mention must be made of James Dillon, who though missing for the final, had helped to get the team there.

     Limekiln Challenge Cup, which usually signals the end of our season, was held on 11/9/2011. ( This year we have some outstanding Finals at Leinster underage level, which look like being postponed until the spring of 20012). The weather was kind to us again this year with the rain holding off. Because of a clash with other fixtures our numbers were slightly down on last year. Notwithstanding four teams fielded. After a bout of very close first round games the Pro-Team and Triple-D met in the final. The final, like most of the matches on the day, proved to be a close and exciting affair. With the 5 innings completed the match was drawn at 6 runs apiece. Two extra innings were played, after which the Pro-Team came out on top with a score of 10 to 9. Lynsey Healy, showing form not seen for a while and Darren Goode with an excellent fielding performance were tops for the winners. Dylan Clerkin was outstanding for Triple-D, With a 100% at bat (4 runs) making him the top scorer in the final. Team list Triple-D :-:Yvonne Healy, Kelly Mc.Gee, Darryl Dolan, Shane Murtagh, Shauna O’Reilly, Dylan Clerkin, Molly Meade, Dano Costello and Adam McGarry. Pro-Team :-; Lynsey Healy, Dar Goode, Niamh Haverty, John Nolan, Mick O’Connell,Elaine Costello, Adam Riordan, Gary Kett (captain) and Shannon Kelly.
