Mayo clubs to take part in All-Ireland Club 7s

The scene is set for the 2022 LGFA currentaccount.ie All-Ireland Club 7s competitions, to be played on Saturday (July 30) at the St. Sylvester’s and Naomh Mearnóg clubs in Dublin.

Seventy clubs from Ireland and overseas will participate for the senior, intermediate and junior prizes on offer – including Kilmovee Shamrocks (senior), Swinford-Killasser and Claremorris (intermediate), and Ballyhaunis and St. Brigid's (junior) from Mayo.

The All-Ireland ladies club seven-a-side football tournament returns for the first time since 2019, free from Covid-19 restrictions and with a new sponsor in the form of currentaccount.ie, the current account from your credit union. Currentaccount.ie are also proud sponsors of the All-Ireland ladies club football championships and the LGFA’s annual national volunteer awards.

Saturday’s event also marks the start of TG4 All-Ireland finals weekend. On Sunday (July 31) at Croke Park, the TG4 All-Ireland junior, intermediate and senior championship winners will be confirmed.

Speaking on behalf of currentaccount.ie, CEO Seamus Newcombe said: “Currentaccount.ie and our participating credit unions – with 200 offices throughout Ireland – are very pleased to sponsor the All-Ireland Club 7s competitions.

“This sponsorship, combined with our sponsorship of the All-Ireland club championships and the national volunteer awards, is an indication of our commitment to supporting local, regional and national sport at the heart of our culture and community.

“Together with the TG4 All-Ireland junior, intermediate and senior finals at Croke Park on Sunday, we are in for a fantastic weekend of sport, camaraderie and competition.”

Mícheál Naughton, president of the Ladies Gaelic Football Association (LGFA), added: “The Covid-19 pandemic meant that we could not hold our All-Ireland Club 7s in 2020 and 2021 but we’re back this year and with a new sponsor in currentaccount.ie. They came on board with us during the pandemic in 2020, which was an incredible show of faith in ladies football and at a challenging time for sport and business.

“I wish to thank them most sincerely for their support to date, and I wish continued success to CEO Seamus Newcombe and the entire currentaccount.ie team, who provide a wonderful service to credit union members around the country. They have been an excellent partner to the Ladies Gaelic Football Association.

“For the 2022 currentaccount.ie All-Ireland Club 7s, we are back at the traditional home of the tournament – the St. Sylvesters and Naomh Mearnóg clubs. We’ve always been provided with a warm welcome there and the facilities available are top class.”
