Father Murphy ' s club championship in Ireland , getting to the final of the Dubai seven ’ s , a thrilling 2007 senior league final against Croydon , on a cold dark December day in Greenford and coming from behind with a goal in the last minute to secure a senior league and championship double .
All memorable occasions , but surely the most outstanding was the clubs first Senior County Camogie Championship in 2007 , a thrilling match against reigning champions . Bros . Pearse led for most of the match , only to fall behind to a goal in the last five minutes , the determination of the girls that night was so strong that they fought back to score a goal with the last stroke of the game , to take the championship 2-09 to 1-10 , a night that will never be forgotten .
Going forward , the club is very seriously looking for its own premises , joining together with the men ’ s hurling and football club to be all housed under the one roof ; the only club in London to have all four codes under the one banner .
We have players from all parts of Ireland playing for us and have had many other nationalities wearing our colours , from locally born girls to Australia , South African , Swedish , Spanish and French to mention but a few . The club enjoys a great social scene , meeting up to watch Gaelic and Rugby matches in The
Raven on Goldhawk Road , next to Stamford Brook station and organising many other events , such as quiz and race nights , raffles and Christmas outings .
We are grateful to our many sponsors , especially Clonakilty Black Pudding who have been our major sponsor for four years now and also Premier
Sports TV and Debbie Smyth of Remax Estate agents , as well as the many others who so generously contribute to our fund raising ventures .
As a club we are always looking for new players , mentors and supporters . We welcome everybody to our training sessions and games , we train on the beautiful green fields of Richmond ’ s Old Deer Park and also in Greenford , where most of our matches are played .
