    Girls from the parish are active participants in camogie and ladies football. For the main part this has been with clubs from the neighbouring parishes. There was an active ladies football club in the parish from 1975 to 1979. During this time they won 5 County Senior Titles and a Munster Club title in 1978 together with a number of underage successes.

Since 1992 either of these clubs have contested the West final but we must go back to 1954 for the last occasion on which they played against each other. It is most unusual to find two teams who have been so prominent at divisional and Co. level having to wait 48 years 10 meel in a West final.
