Report

Belfast Brawlers won a very competitive Softball Ulster League in 2013 by one game from Belfast Sliders which was not decided until the final days play when Sliders lost by one run to Belfast Cubs. The Cubs went on later that day to win another game by a single run against Belfast Aviators and with Jordanstown Elks forfeiting their last match to the Belfast Aces it meant the Top 4 read Belfast Brawlers (10-2) Belfast Sliders (9-3), Jordanstown Elks (8-4) and Belfast Cubs (8-4). The difference between the four teams at the end was Belfast Brawlers doing the double against Belfast Cubs, winning both Home and Away (Road) Games.

The other three teams in the League failed to win a match against the top four (excepting the Aces forfeit win over the Elks on the last day. The difference between theses three teams was the Aviators double win over the Belfast Braves, as the Final Standings at the foot of the table read: Belfast Aviators (3-9), Belfast Aces (3-9) and Belfast Braves (1-11).

Report

Limekiln of Dublin won a highly competitive Senior Women’s All-Ireland Rounders Championship in 2005, triumphing in the Final over Carlow’s Bagenalstown. The team from Tymon Park in Tallaght had received a bye into the All-Ireland Playoffs with Bagenalstown contesting the other Leinster place with Ballon, also from Carlow. The Ulster Championship saw two close games involving Kildress from Tyrone which were decided by a single run, but it was to be Derry’s Desertmartin and Cavan’s Erne Eagles who made it through to the All-Ireland Playoffs. The fourth team in the Ulster round-robin group was Ni Mhichil from Derry.

About Rounders

Rounders is an Irish and British version of Softball and Baseball, and thought to be the ancestor of both. It was first codified in Ireland as part of the Original GAA Charter of 1884, but not organised until 1958. It is a Bat and Ball (also known as Safe Haven) sport whereby the batter attempts to hit a ball thrown at him or her by a pitcher or bowler and then attempts to run around the bases back home.

Harness Racing is Pony & Trap Racing, whereby a Horse and Driver race around a cicuit with the first past the Finish Line the Winner. Standardbred Horses are employed. Pacer is identified by the gait of the horse, with the horses leg moving one side at a time; this is historically the most popular in Ireland, as well as USA, Australia and New Zealand. In Trotter is a two-beat diagonal gait of the horse where the diagonal pairs of legs move forward at the same time with a moment of suspension between each beat. It is tradtionally the most popular in Europe, but is becoming more popular in Ireland. [Reference: 4]
