Threecastles GAA Club, based on the outskirts of Kilkenny City, are asking club members and the wider public to consider making a donation to their All Ireland Series Appeal, as the small local club look to continue their remarkable run, this time against the country's best at Junior B level.

The Kilkenny club have been on an incredible journey over the past two years, winning county titles at Junior C and Junior B grades in two successive seasons with the latter arguably the sweetest, beating St Lachtain's of Freshford in the Roinn B decider.

The club had waited 83 years for a first adult county title prior to 2023.

The next step in Threecastles All-Ireland journey is a Leinster Final against Askamore Kilrush (Wexford) on Saturday at 2.30pm in Killeedy, Co Limerick.
