In 2017, Cork City lifted the FAI Women’s Senior Cup - thanks to a memorable strike from Clare Shine - and now they want to do it again. This time, however, Peamount United stand in their way. Fresh from retaining their Women’s National League title, Peamount are chasing a domestic double and boast a star-studded cast of players. But it’s all to play for today in Tallaght Stadium and that will be Cork City’s mentality. Defender Ciara McNamara was a key component of that 2017 team and she has been preaching to her younger team-mates of what can be done, if they just believe in themselves. “Winning the Cup would be unbelievable really. There are seven of us still in the squad from 2017 who know what it takes to win this Cup and how great it is to share it with your closest friends, it’s great that all the younger ones have the same opportunity,” said McNamara. “Many of them were part of the fans that travelled that day so it’s a bit surreal for 4 them in that sense.

  • 1895-1970 – Non League 1970-1978 – Loi B Years
    History Friday, 01 January 2010 00:00 1895-1970 – Non league In 1895, the Catholic University Medical School Cecilia Street Football Club was founded, entering a team in the inaugural Leinster Junior League. The team's first match was against Bohemians B in October of 1895 and ended in a 2-0 defeat. November 1895 also saw the first match against Trinity with a result of 2-0 to Cathlolic University. 1898 Catholic University qualified for the Leinster Senior Cup for the first time - and we reached the semi-final. In 1908, the Catholic University merged with University College Dublin, and the team changed name with the merger. Things weren't quite settled yet, though, as we went through a series of grounds - in Sandymount, Cowper Road, Croydon Park, Fairview and Terenure before moving to Belfield Park in 1935 and now the UCD Bowl in 2008. In the meantime, though, success had been regular. In 1914, we won the inaugural Collingwood Cup - the Irish collegiate championships. The next year, UCD won the IFA Intermediate Cup, beating Portadown 2-1 in a replay in Dalymount Park. The first match had seen UCD draw in Windsor Park on St Patrick's Day. The competition was the 'IFA' Cup because in those days before independence, the IFA governed football over the whole island, and the competition involved teams from the whole island. The Intermediate Cup was one step below the Senior Cup in importance, so it was certainly of some significance. UCD were also involved in the first ever FAI Senior Cup in 1921, when they took on a non-league side at the time, Shamrock Rovers, in Windy Arbour, losing 6-2.
