Who really cares?I can't think of one club in ireland who actually don't have a few outsiders on team.borders count for little it's why hurling is gone so bad in offaly at the moment

Thanks for posting the map, H.

I wouldn't be familiar with the territory of the far north, but Rhode - they must be maximising every acre they have.

Is the map online anywhere - or at least the index?

Yeah you can access parish maps for each county on the irish times website , just type it into Google should come up. It lists town lands for each parish too !
The north of the county is broken up into tiny parishes so it's hard to distinguish club borders but gave it my best shot
You can do the hurling club map :wink: I'm afraid I'll piss someone off :lol:

I logged in to the IT parish info & my home parish. When I clicked on "areas" it skipped to the Civil (CoI) Parishes which are relevant.

I note a number of townlands in "Ballinahown" Parish are listedas being in Clonmacnoise (now normally referred to as Shannonbridge) including the one, Bloomhill, the Ryans, Sean, Mick, Kieran & Michael came from, so I suspect these are not included in the Doon Club area on the above map, as they should be.

I also see that the Townlands in the Westmeath portion of the Parish (including Ballinahown itself) are incorrectly listed by the IT as being in another Parish.

Good map

Been from the North of the county can only comment on that part. Edenderry is too far west. Ballyfore covers from the Canal bridge in edenderry on Tullamore road up as far as the yellow river which is right beside the turn off for Clonbullogue on the Main Edenderry-Daingean road. Ballyfore is all area on the left of this road heading tullamore direction but on the right hand side the boundary is hard to tell as it runs into the rhode and edenderry borders in lots of places. The croghan boundary is too big I think. Its going to far East on that map. The rhode parish is bigger than that and Clonmore is smaller as well. Im open to correction on any of the above

Thanks for that. It could take a while. I imagine the finer details and borders will consume a fair bit of time. PMs welcome from anyone with knowledge on any club's territory.
Should be interesting anyway.

I just had a quick look at map. Killeigh parish is shown in black and amber, since 2015, Clodiagh Gaels, dual club, light blue/ navy blue, border Tullamore, KK and Shamrocks, and two Lais clubs, St. Man mans and Kilcavan. Ballinagar, blue jerseys, and bordering Daingean, and Cappincur, Clodiagh Gaels. Raheen, orange and black colours, border, Gracefield to the east, Kilcavan in Laois, and Walsh Island.

Good idea for map.
