Kiltormer GAA


Kiltormer is most famous for winning the All-Ireland Hurling championship title in 1992, after a marathon semi-final where they smashed the rock of Cashel thanks to a Tony Furey goal late in the 2nd replay at Croke Park on St Patrick's day.
Kiltormer finally beat Birr in Semple stadium in Thurles, much to the annoyance of fellow Offaly born man Jim Gunning. Kiltormer hurling has plumeted to new lows over the past couple of years failing to make an impact on the latter stages of the senior championship, meanwhile the emergence of camogie in the club has been a revelation of sorts, led by passionate club members.
