RENMORE ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL CLUB EST.1973

U13 Renmore Girls won the cup despite going 2 goals down to rivals Athenry in this Eamonn Deacy Park Final. Renmore rallied and it was Rita who won and scored the penalty that gave Renmore hope in this game. Maisy Bo then hammered home the equaliser as Renmore came storming back into the contest. Before the half was out Renmore stormed into the lead as Lily McC played a wonderful assist to give Rita her second to make it 3-2 in a breathless game. 

Half time and time to get hydrated! Renmore came out of the starting blocks as they took control once again with Maisy Bo adding another but not before Athenry scored to make it 4-3 before the game ended. A wonderful massive performance from the team, congratulations to all the girls and their parents and a very, very proud set of coaches Full match report on facebook.

 Best of luck to Renmore AFC’s  u13 Girls who play Athenry in the Championship/Division 1 Cup Final in Eamonn Deacy Park, this Sunday 11th May. Kick off 2pm!

Lots of sponsors going to the dogs with us! We would just like to say a BIG THANK YOU to our many sponsors who are helping us make this event a success.

East Galway UTD 1-3 Renmore AFC

Midweek saw football played in sunny Kiltormer. Renmore's Goalie Aoife was superb with Captain Caoimhe strong in the middle of the park, indeed Caoimhe grabbed the assist for Ellen to grab the first goal in the game. Liy McC made it two before half time with a speculative shot from afar and she came close to scoring again shortly afterwards with the East keeper making a glorious save to deny her. Second half saw Renmore still looking for another and they thought they had it with Kate's goal which was ruled out for a tight offside. This seemed to give the home side a boost and a rejuvenated East scored to make it 2-1. Renmore had to redouble their efforts as the game unfolded and through sheer  persistence with Elise & Maisy Bo to the fore it was with winning a penalty that saw Renmore see out the game. A very cool Rita scored to give the game to the visitors and send the U13's into a final.

 The end of season at the Academy this morning was a bright and sunny affair. We were delighted to welcome Henry Burrows and Rob Alone from The Bon Secours Hospital Galway to show them our appreciation for their continued support for the Renmore AFC Academy. 

 The Renmore AFC U8, U9 girls and boys participated in the Maree/Oranmore Invitational on Sunday. A great day out for all the players. The event is sponsored by St. Columba's Credit Union and is a great event every year for all the players to play football. Well done to all the players and coaches involved.

The Maree/Oranmore FC St Columbus Credit Union invitational tournament is played in Oranmore village. And with 15 clubs in attendance it was the biggest ever with 128 teams and over 1200 kids between the U7-9 categories participating.

Yesterday's tournament was in honour of the late Martin Horgan RIP, a stalwart presence at the tournament each year and he was remembered by the wearing of a special commemorative jersey by Maree/Oranmore players. 

Also in attendance were Galway United, Hildeguarde Naughton, Noel Grealish, Martina Kinane, former club player & Irish international Ava Mullins,the Horgan family and a huge amount of volunteers. An incredible achievement again for the football community and a great invitational for all of those clubs attending.

Corrib Celtic 2-3 Renmore AFC

A gutsy win for the u13 girls in their penultimate league game away in Annaghdown. The girls struggled to get into their rhythm in the first half, though Lily McE was unlucky not to beat the keeper with a skilful lob from the edge of the box which was cleared off the line. Corrib were the better team in the first half and went in one up at the break.

2nd half saw a great improvement with Lily McC scoring early to even things up before Maisy and Caoimhe added one more each. Corrib were tenacious and dug deep looking for a way back into the game and a fine second goal made it a close and tense. Renmore’s defence were strong though, putting in incredible second half performances. A fine turn and a worthy win. Many thanks to Dilip Venkatesan Sankar for adjudicating.

Our u14's had a great victory in the Division 1 league on Saturday against a previously unbeaten Salthill Devon side. The final score in an end to end game was 6-4. Prolific striker Naoise Gorham grabbed himself 4 goals with Conor O'Meara and Liam O'Donnell also on the scoresheet.

Renmore now sit top of table with 2 games to go - next up is Bohs at home this Wednesday evening.

 Renmore 4-1 Loughrea
Goals: Sammy Omokua x3, Cian Specht x 1
Assists: Kieron McGinty x 1 Cian Specht x 3

Renmore have secured Premier League status for the 3rd consecutive year with a fine display in Renmore. A minutes silence was held before kick off after the very sad passing of academy player Ula Grigaityte may she rest in peace. 

U14 girls Division 1
Renmore AFC 4-0 Corrib Rangers 

The girls travelled to Westside last Thursday evening to take on a tough Corrib Rangers team. In what was the penultimate match of the league for the girls, they put on a fine display of football to take all 3 points.

Goals from Emily Kelly, Aoibheann Fitzpatrick O'Brien and Kate Brotherton x 2.

Many thanks to Rob Stanik for taking the photos of the match and the girls  @galwaylocals

 The Galway Football Association is celebrating 100 years of passion, dedication, and community! A century of memories, triumphs, and growth in Galway's football scene. From the players to the supporters, coaches, and volunteers – this milestone is a testament to everyone who’s contributed to making Galway football what it is today. Here’s to 100 more years of success and unity in the beautiful game!  

 Cois Fharraige 3:4 Renmore Renmore AFC reserves played their last league match of the season in Carraroe on Sunday, 30th March.
With only 11 available players on the day, Renmore AFC suffered an injury to their goalkeeper early in the second half, which left the team with only 10 players.
In an excellent sporting gesture from their manager León, Cois Fharraige offered to remove one of their players from the pitch in order to even up the sides.
This last game of the season for both teams ended up in a victory for the visitors. 

Well done to both teams

APRIL FOOL!!!!

The Galway FA are seeking public submissions and thoughts from the supporters of soccer in the league in the City & County. The GFA will seek to implement an addendum 'safety first' provision into the soon to be published 'new GFA constitution'. They are seeking to add a season long trial where U12's and below age group goalkeepers will be mandated to wear helmets to help with player safety for the 2026/27 season. It is hoped this rule change will be adopted later on at older age groups if the trial period is successful. All submissions please to chair@galwayfa.ie

Renmore 1-4 Castlebar

 Great to see our younger underage teams out over the weekend with the emphasis on development. Renmore U11 Boys played Developmental League football on Saturday.

Renmore AFC U11 girls were in action on Sunday in their Developmental League Cup games and Renmore AFC U9 girls played in the Maree/Oranmore Invitational in Oranmore on Sunday morning. PHEW a busy time for all of our volunteers and organisers.

 Well done to the U14 Division 2 girls. The bare minimum 11 players played so well and without any respite from substitutions they lost narrowly to Cregmore/Claregalway B on a score line of 3-2. Heads very much held high for putting on a show of great football with limited numbers. Renmore goals from Rita and Layla, but you all should be proud. Thank you to Cregmore/Claregalway for a great game.

 Renmore 1-1 Salthill Devon
An excellent point at home against Premier league leaders Salthill Devon on Saturday 15th march. A performance that shows the fight in this team. Well done lads!!! Renmore goal was scored by Luke Byrnes.

Renmore Seniors welcome league leaders Salthill Devon to West Park, Saturday 15th March at 2pm. Get down and show your support. Massive 3 points at stake!

 Cregmore 2-6 Renmore

U16 Boys Div 3

Goals from Hugo Lynagh x3, Dennis Aoeani, Aiden Rae, Alex Iwaskai saw Renmore gain promotion. Now seven points clear with two games to play and with Knocknacarra B the only side that can catch them (they have 3 to play) complacency wont be a factor as the lads continue to push for the league title now. The lads have secured promotion and have 2 big games left to be crowned champions.

 Renmore U15 player Conor Conneely has been in great goalscoring form recently for the Galway FA U15 Interleague side and added another during their victory over Sligo in Maree last week. The club wishes Conor and his Galway team-mates all the best in their upcoming knockout tie versus the Inishowen league in Maginn Park, Buncrana, Donegal on 29th march.

 Renmore 2-3 Mervue

Renmore came back from 2-0 down at half time to set up an exciting finish to this premier league match which ultimately saw Mervue win it with their third. Goals from Kieron McGinty & Cian Specht saw Renmore get back into the game with both assists from Dan Kineen. However it wasn't to be in the end.

Next up is a home tie to league leaders Salthill next Saturday at 2pm.

U12 boys are Division 5 Champions and played their final league match away to Kilshanvey United on Saturday to finish their league campaign. Renmore played some great football on the day to win out worthy winners and preserve their 100% league record. Well done, boys! Thanks to Duggan's pharmacy for their sponsorship and to Mariusz Koksa for refereeing.

Renmore 2-1 Nuig

Renmore took a huge step towards safety today with a massive win. With the council pitches closed Renmore booked Colemanstown astro and put in a big performance to come back from 1-0 down at half time to take all 3 points. Man of the match Cian Costello made some excellent saves and it was new signing Padraig Corcoran who got Renmore level and the outstanding Cian Specht who got the winner.

Next up is a home league game against Mervue next Saturday at 2pm

U16'S League Cup Qtr Final

MacDara 1-2 Renmore

Renmore had two players making their debuts from the U15's with Lisandro Gjegjai scoring with a cheeky backheel on his first start for the U16's. Denis Aioanei also scored to get his 6th goal of the season and Renmore's second in the match as half time arrived. They say a 2-0 lead is often the most dangerous to have and it was MacDara who came storming back to pepper the Renmore goal to make it an exciting cup tie. Both sides had lots of chances with Renmore keeper Oisin Murphy in imperious form making numerous fantastic saves. Team Captain Michael McGrath was also in serious form on the day bossing all of those around him. Defensively Renmore weathered anything that the home side threw at them and now a semi final awaits.

Renmore 2-5 St John’s Athletic.

U12 Girls lost out to St Johns Athletic on a pitch that didn't help the flow of good football. Both sides fought gamely in wet conditions and should be commended for the way they played the game.

Best of Luck for the rest of the season to St. John’s Athletic.

Renmore bowed out of the GFA Championship/Div 1 Cup yesterday. coming out on the wrong side of a penalty shootout, after a titanic battle with Cregmore/Claregalway. This was the second successive meeting of these teams that had to be decided by spot kicks, with Cregmore/Claregalway avenging the reverse result last season. Renmores Eanna Daly equalised in normal time to set up extra time who once again conceded going 2-1 down before Lisandro Gjegjag equalised to gain parity. No more goals then the loss in the dreaded penalties! Best of luck to our opposition on the day in the next round.
Thanks to Tommy Murphy for officiating in this one. The Renmore thoughts now focus on the recovery of Dara McGrath, who unfortunately suffered a bad injury after an accidental collision late in the game. Dara was having a stormer of a game, and we look forward to having him back in our lineup in no time.

 U14 Div 1/Champ cup
Renmore 5-0 West Coast Utd

U14 girls won well in the first round of the league cup. Early goals from Emily Kelly (who went on the score a hat trick) and Kate Brotherton gave Renmore a dream start and they went on to dominate. Further goals from Emily and Aoibheann Fitzpatrick O'Brien saw the girls win. Special mention to the defence with Sophia Roche and Abby Lohan strong and resolute with Peace Fatusin and Eadaoin Murphy faultless. Winger Katie De Paor was industrious in the win when she was introduced and spine of the team in midfield Niamh Kennedy, Alice Delaney and Rachel Duggan retained the ball well whilst in possession.

Renmore AFC reserves took on Cois Fharraige on Sunday 19th January. Coming into this game, Cois Fharraige stood as outright league leaders having won all five previous games, and having conceded only one goal. This game was a massive challenge for Renmore, and a loss would surely decide their season and leave them well adrift of the leaders. In a ding dong battle played on a soft pitch, the home side came out on top with a score line of 4-2.

 

 Well Done to our U12 boys who had a fantastic team win against Cregmore/Claregalway at home in Renmore. An excellent performance with some very well taken goals, well done boys keep it going!

He always had the best interests of Renmore Soccer at heart and for this our club will be forever grateful. We extend our sincere sympathies to his wife Mary, his children Aoife, Peter, Ailbhe, Elaine and to all his family. May his gentle soul Rest In Peace.

Mervue Utd 0 - 4 Renmore AFC
A great away win for the Renmore girls U13 Girls, Captained by Saoirse, to get their championship\division 1 cup campaign up and running. The game was tight for the first 15 minutes with Mervue edging it as the better side until a quick move through the middle set up Elise to finish calmly. At one up, Aoife was called upon to make a cracking save, with Mervue otherwise through on  goal. Then Maisy Bo came on to cause havoc on the left and capped a fine performance with a stunningly placed goal. Mervue were dangerous and Katie, Layla and Amber and Molly had their work cut out to contain a very threatening strike force. Kate G took up some clever positions  behind Ellen and there were lots of chances but it stayed a close game at two nil going into at half time.
Second half saw Teagan bring added stability at the back which allowed Lily and Caoimhe to gain control of the middle to feed out to the two excellent wingers, the imperious duo of Elise and Maisy. Lily McE and Saoirse pressed forward with menace. But the second half belonged to the mighty Rita who slotted in two superb, calm finishes to quash the game. Amazing performance from the girls. Our thanks to referee Benny Fahy officiating on Sunday.

Senior Men's team will be wrapping up their 2024 calendar at home to Maree Oranmore FC on Saturday 14th December at 2pm. Renmore currently sit in 7th spot and Maree are 6th in the table.

Renmore produced an excellent performance to make it 3 wins from 3 games in all competitions. More importantly it's an all important 3 points to keep Renmore in contention for a good finish in a very competitive Galway FA Premier league this season. Currently with 6 sides all within 2 points of each other even at this early stage there will be many more great games to come.

 Renmore Reds picked up 3 crucial points in the U15 Boys Championship on Saturday in Kiltullagh, in a contest that proved a thriller for all in attendance. Renmore started on the front foot and took an early lead after Naoise Gorham got on the end of a cross from Eanna Daly. Naoise got his second of the game when he latched onto a through ball from Liam Kelly midway through the half and the score line remained at 2 nil, despite chances for both sides, until Eanna finished a Luke Seoighe cross with a clever header just before half-time. In the second half, Kiltullagh attacked at every opportunity to try to find a way back into the game. Renmore created a flurry of chances on the counter but the Kiltullagh keeper pulled off some breathtaking saves to keep them in the contest, and it almost paid off as they found two late goals, the first a clever finish after beating the offside trap, and the second a superb curling effort to the top corner, to make Renmore sweat, but the away team held on for a deserved victory.

 WOW - What a performance from Renmore U14B Girls in Division One on Sunday 13th Oct as they beat a very accomplished Athenry side. Athenry were  set up with a strong ethos on attack but Renmore didn't buckle as they proved every bit as resilient as their visitors today. Captain Joni Hearne marshalled her midfield fantastically well and Renmore scored the all important opener in the 2nd half through Grace Dunbar. As expected Athenry reacted but defensively Renmore showed fortitude in holding them back. With all bodies to the pump at times Renmore held out to claim a massive win and three points. 

Thanks to ref John O'Rourke and to The Connacht Hotel  for their continued sponsorship.

Renmore AFC reserves played East Galway United on Sunday and went ahead early on in the game through Nial Kirton and the same player added a second goal half way through the first period. East Galway United came storming back at their Kiltormer home and owing as much to Renmores defensive errors as United's resilience it was shortly 2-2 as the home side battled back to parity. Second half and Renmore moved up a gear after these set backs and put the Kiltormer team under severe pressure as they ramped up the pace for most of the second half. Then the last couple of minutes of the game saw more last ditch defending from United as they tried to clear yet another Renmore foray forwards. But it was left to Harry Greaney who took possession of the ball almost at the halfway line, ran forcibly towards the penalty box and unleashed an unstoppable shot that saw it nestle in the back of the net, much to the delight of the Renmore players, management and supporters alike. Next game is at home to Moyne Villa on 27th October. All support appreciated for this exciting team to watch.

Renmore 2-0 Corrib Celtic 

U13 Championship Girls

Two wins in the Championship see's Renmore making a strong start to the season with no less than 11 goals from these games. Goals from Lily McCarroll & a superb long range strike from Elise Day grabbed the points for the home side against a strong Corrib opposition.

Renmore’s Captain Layla Faraj Gheziel was excellent bossing the midfield all day and goalie Aoife Curran was alert throughout to see any dangers come from the Celtic forward line. Excellent result and performances from all. Next game is Oughterard at home. All support welcomed and encouraged!

 MENS PREMIER DIVISION RESULT:

Renmore 3-2 Loughrea

A tight home victory for the Senior Men's team in the GFA Premier Division on Saturday. With goals from Dan Kinneen, Cian Specht & Connor Fahy securing a valuable three points at this early stage of the season.

 Terrible conditions at the weekend saw an exciting game of football with St Bernards away in Abbeyknockmoy. With the home side going in at the break 1 nil up, it was going to be tougher for Renmore as they found themselves 2 nil down shortly after the break. Renmore battled back as the team started to find their feet in the wet & blustery conditions. Rita Keenan grabbed a goal to give the visitors hope and made it an exciting end to the game as both sides gave their all. Chances came to both sides as the minutes went by but both defences held firm until the final whistle. A good advert for the girls game despite the weather making it difficult to control the ball at times.

Under 12 Girls Result:
Renmore AFC 3 - 1 Bearna
U12 Girls showed character in their first home game of the season in the Premier Division. Going 1 nil down early in the game they settled into their rhythm and came back strongly. Goalies Millie MacGabhann & Cliodhna Ni Chonghaile in both halves were excellent. Renmore's back line were steadfast in defending, Kyla Roache, Alexa Geoghegan, Holly Duffy, Ellen Irwin and Lucy Davis all stepping up in the game. Wingers Cara Mahon, Rebecca Whyte, Anna Lynagh and Neasa O'Donnell were busy up and down the field. Substitutes Annie Meabh Mullins and Kate O'Donoghue showed what strength in depth this squad has. 

Goals were scored by Neasa (x2) and Millie (x1).

 U14 Girls played away in the first round of the Connaught Cup in Castlebar on Saturday 14th September. Renmore created numerous chances throughout the game and were unlucky not to get on the scoresheet. They can be very proud of their efforts but today wasn't their day and they look forward to the Shield competition for this season. Notable performances on the day go to Aimee Ryan in goals, Elise Day in midfield and Emily Kelly up front who along with the the whole team battled through adversity on the day.

Athenry 5-4 Renmore

A wild wet night in Athenry saw a classic match that saw joy and despair from both sides at various different stages of the match. Athenry raced into a 4 nil lead before Renmore's Kieran McGinty grabbed a goal back on 41 minutes and just before half time Cian Specht made it 4-2 to give hope to the visitors. With Renmore revitalised through this mini revival McGinty scored once again to make it 4-3 and as the game came to its last few minutes Aaron Moran headed into the net to make it 4-4. When it looked like a draw was going to be the end result Athenry got a corner and from this Renmore conceded to give the home side a 5-4 victory to break Renmore hearts. A great game to watch for those fortunate to be there on the Friday night.

Next Match up for our Senior Men's team will be Friday 13th Sept away to Athenry 8pm Moonbaun Astro.
