The 3Dental Ladies Football Championships kicked off on Sunday afternoon across the county.
The Limerick Ladies Football Championships began with a bang on Sunday with games ranging from Senior to Junior B.
In the Senior Championship, the defending champions Monagea welcomed the Intermediate kingpins Drom Broadford to the top tier with a comprehensive 1-8 to 0-3 victory. Last year’s semi-finalists, Old Mill, kicked off their group one campaign with a nine-point win over St Brigids.
In group two, St Ailbes were 2-12 to 0-9 winners over Feohanagh Castlemahon as they look to regain the crown they lost twelve months ago.
In the Intermediate Championship, Murroe Boher were comprehensive in seeing off Knockainey on a scoreline of 4-14 to 0-5.
Galtee Gaels and Athea were winners in the first round of the Junior A Championship. The Gaels had too much for St Ailbes‘ second side, winning out 4-11 to 1-6. Last year’s runners up Athea were made to work but got the better of Groody Gaels on a 2-13 to 1-11 scoreline.
In the East section of the Junior B Championship, Oola beat Croom, Ballylanders received a walkover while Pallasgreen proved too strong for Galtee Gaels.
In the West, Drom Broadford hit twelve goals against St Senans in victory while Monagea defeated Old Mill.
