Kiltale GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association hurling club based in Kiltale, in County Meath, Ireland. The club was founded in the early 1920s, then disbanded in 1934 but reformed in 1946. The club does not play Gaelic football; instead, the other club in the parish, Moynalvey, represents the area in football competitions. The club has won the Meath Senior Hurling Championship six times, most recently in 2015, and regularly features in the latter stages of that championship. Underage sides representing the club are regular winners of county titles in lower age grades. The club also has a sister Camogie club which shares its grounds. ==History== The history of Kiltale Hurling Club dates back to the early 1920s. The club disbanded in 1934 but was reformed in 1946. Kiltale won their first Junior Hurling Championship in 1954. The club reached the Senior Hurling Championship final twice in the late 50′s without success. There was no club in the 1960s but in the 1970s, the late Tommy Kane got it back on its feet and the club came back to win the Junior Hurling Championship in 1971, the Intermediate Hurling Championship in 1972, an under-14 Championship in 1975, and a second Intermediate title in 1978. In these early days of the modern club Kiltale proved to be one of the most successful teams in Meath hurling, a credit to all that were behind the club in the early years to keep hurling alive in the parish. The 1980s was at the time the most successful decade in the club's history, with the senior side winning the Meath Senior Hurling Championship in 1982 and 1983 and the O’Growney Cup in 1985 and 1987. In 1992 they won the Junior Hurling Championship and in 1999 they had success with the minors. In 2003 Kiltale won a Junior C Hurling Championship and an U21 Championship. In 2005 and again in 2006 Kiltale won back to back Minor A Championships. In recent years the senior side has seen a renaissance, with the senior team taking championship honours in 2007, 2012, 2014 and 2015. In 2014 the side narrowly lost to Kilkenny side Mullinavat in a thrilling final in Páirc Tailteann, Navan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kiltale GAA」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
