The minnows from the North-East who shook up Galway club hurling
Stephen Glennon's January 2021 Connacht Tribune article recalls how Fohenagh, then a small East Galway club, left junior hurling in the 1950s after the abandoned game at Kiltormer and went on to senior club hurling. It informs the burning of the hurls story and the club history.

Fohenagh's 1947 county camogie final
Fohenagh reached their first county camogie final in 1947, after wins over Tuam, Ballymacward, Ballinasloe Mental Hospital and Caltra. On 16 November 1947 they met Erin's Hope at UCG Park. Erin's Hope still had six county players and were the favourites. They led by two goals early on, and Fohenagh were two points behind at half-time. Brilliant play by Rita Clinton, and a goal by Pauline Hopkins midway through the second half, put Fohenagh a point ahead. They held that lead. The score was Fohenagh 3-1, Erin's Hope 3-0. The team was B. Clinton, L. Madden, M. Barrett, A. Madden, M. Madden (captain), P. Hopkins, R. Clinton, J. Glynn, A. Glynn, M. Farrell, M. Glynn and K. Naughton. The book gives the Connacht Tribune of 16 November 1947 as its source for the final.

Fohenagh v Gurteen, 1890: fifty minutes, no score
On 15 July 1890 Fohenagh, captained by Tim Glynn, played Gurteen at a big Gaelic tournament in a field lent by the Cormican family. After fifty minutes of 'spirited stopping and blocking' the teams were called off. The score? Nothing all! Around the same time Fohenagh beat Kilconnell 2 goals 1 point to 1 goal in a Caltra football tournament, and lost 1 goal 3 points to nil at Glentane.

1907: Fohenagh back in, with a note from the priest
In 1907 the club elected its parish priest, Fr. Harney, as president, and on 21 January 1907 Fohenagh was re-affiliated to the County Board even though Ahascragh objected strongly. Fr. Harney wrote that the Fohenagh players were 'respectable men' guilty of no 'dishonourable conduct'. A few weeks later the 'Fohena Hurling Club' told the papers it would start practice the very next Sunday.

Fohenagh met Claregalway in the 1941 junior county semi-final at Athenry on Sunday 24 May 1942. The match was abandoned. The County Board met on Saturday 6 June 1942. The Connacht Tribune of 13 June 1942 reported that meeting under the headline "Blackguardism at Athenry causes heat at County Board meeting". The Connacht Sentinel of 9 June 1942 carries the same meeting. Both teams were suspended for twelve months, and Eyrecourt were declared the 1941 champions. The printed report records illegal players and "serious charges". The chairman was Mr T. O'Connor of Claregalway.

The turf lorry and the Athenry Arch (1947)
How do you get a camogie crowd 35 miles to Galway in 1947? In Kevin Doherty's (Woodlawn) turf lorry, 'suitably insulated'. The trip home after the county final win is local folklore: the celebrations started early in Foster Street, the driver was in no state to drive, and John Joe Kirwan took the wheel. Then the lorry got wedged in Athenry's medieval Arch! After plenty of advice, the top tier of the creel was taken off, and the lorry and its relieved passengers got home with only one stop, in Menlough.

Seven points up, then the fists came out (1956)
Fohenagh led Tynagh by seven points to nil in a Junior A game at Kiltormer on 15 July 1956, until fighting on the pitch got the game called off. Both teams were suspended for twelve months. The book calls it 'a devastating blow', but the County Board still let Fohenagh into senior hurling, and three years later they were county champions.

From Fohenagh to Ahascragh/Fohenagh (1999–2002)
With fewer children around (96 on the school roll in 1988, 46 by 2000), Fohenagh joined Ahascragh at underage level in 1999, and won county U-14 B and Minor B titles straight away. On 21 January 2002 both clubs held their AGMs at the same time and amalgamated as Ahascragh-Fohenagh. For many who remembered the 1950s glory days, losing their 112-year-old club was sad, but there was no other way.
