Kilcock’s run in the Kildare junior hurling championship ended in the final on Saturday 10 October. Wolfe Tones beat them 4-17 to 1-14 at Cedral St Conleth’s Park to take the 2026 UPMC Junior Hurling title.

According to Kildare GAA, the Sallins/Kill club had been favourites from the start of the championship, having already reached the Division 2 league final this season.

Goals made the difference. Jack Crouch, Mark Kiernan, Aaron Cronin and Simon Hughes each scored a goal for Wolfe Tones, Kildare GAA reported.

Gavin Kenny led the Kilcock scoring with 0-8, and Ben Mulligan got the north Kildare side’s only goal. Kildare GAA said reaching the county final still amounted to a fine season for Kilcock despite the result.

With the title, Wolfe Tones move up to the intermediate grade for the 2027 season.
