As the curtains closed on a fantastic season for Nenagh BC, we have some good results to share.

This past weekend, the Victor Juvenile and Senior Intercounties were held at the Kingfisher Arena in Galway City. On Saturday, Adam Bourke and Nika Setikaite supported Tipperary to a long-awaited gold, with Nika winning her last mixed to give Tipp their win, 5-4, over Galway.
On Sunday, Natasha O’Brien was in action with Tipperary’s F team, getting them over the line to win silver in a very tough group of four teams. And with the Grade E team, Dan Ryan and Brian Saiju were involved in some tight matches, with Tipperary losing out to strong Dublin and Galway sides.

The Saturday before last weekend saw Dan Ryan travel to Dublin for the Graded Nationals finals, where he contested the Grade E men’s singles, narrowly losing out to D and E singles, and E doubles champ, Jason Carr of Galway.

These are some fantastic results for the club, a huge well done to all involved, we hope to our members reaching for new heights next season!

League Finals ➡️

On Friday, the last of our League Finals finished up in Borrisoleigh GAA Hall, with our G and E teams facing strong Roscrea sides. After a tough evening of matches, Nenagh emerged victorious in both grades!

The G team had a strong 5-0 victory over Roscrea, and the E team went down to the wire, despite incredible pressure, Nenagh took third mixed, in three sets to win 4-3. The E team will now field a team to advance to Munster, the very best of luck to them!

Last Friday, the 10th, our H and F teams took on Larkspur and Grange respectively. After another evening of incredibly close fixtures, both matches came down to last mixed, with Nenagh losing out very closely on both occasions. Hard luck to our H and F teams, we would like to emphasise how excellent your efforts have been, to reach these finals is no easy feat!

Onwards and upwards for our E team, the very best of luck at the Munsters!

Brewster Cup Runners-Up! ➡️

Yesterday, in Causeway Community School, Kerry, the Brewster Cup was held by Munster Badminton, with 4 teams competing for the 75th Edition of the Brewster Cup. The Cup is a competition where a county can bring 1 Grade C male and female player, and a full team of up to D players. Tipperary faced off against Cork, Kerry and Limerick in a round robin format.

Following a narrow 4-5 loss to a strong Cork team, Tipperary beat another strong, Limerick team 6-3 to stay in the competition. They then beat Kerry 6-3. The final decider game was last mixed between Cork and Limerick, where in the third set, Cork won, to narrowly take the win overall. Tipperary were a close second, a fabulous achievement!

Well done to Brian and Dan for representing the county at this event, Brian played 1st men’s doubles and narrowly lost out on some of his games, winning 1 out of his 3 matches despite extremely close scorelines. Dan was on singles all day, and was given 2nd mixed doubles for the last two games, despite some more tight matches, Dan managed to win 5 out of 5 of his games. Great stuff lads!
