Sharlene Mawdsley responds to viral street sprint video after All-Ireland win
Sharlene Mawdsley has joked that she is happy to return to the track after racing on the streets of Thurles while enjoying the All-Ireland Hurling celebrations. Mawdsley's partner, Michael Breen, was part of the Tipperary team that beat Cork in Sunday's All-Ireland final, and the Irish Olympian enjoyed the celebrations with the panel and their friends. And as the celebrations rolled on, a video circulated of sprinter Mawdsley racing on the streets of Thurles where she won comfortably, despite giving her competitor a head start. After a couple of days of well-deserved celebrations, Mawdsley shared a snap back on the track and poked fun at herself, saying: "Swapping the streets of Thurles for the track today" Sharlene appeared on stage with her partner, Tipperary defender Mikey Breen, and the pair were captured in a lovely photograph showing the two of them holding the Liam MacCarthy Cup. Tipperary player Michael Breen celebrates with his partner, Olympic athlete Sharlene Mawdsley (Image: ©INPHO/Morgan Treacy) Mawdsley and Breen have formed something of a sporting power couple in recent times, with the sprinter going 'Instagram official' with the Tipp defender at the beginning of the Summer. Mawdsley took to Instagram in the wake of Tipp's win, sharing a photo of herself with Breen on the Croke Park pitch along with the caption: "Proud of you every day, but that little bit prouder today." For Breen, it is his third All-Ireland title win, and has been a mainstay for the Premier County throughout his intercounty career.

GAA apologise to Kilkenny for scoreboard error in All-Ireland semi-final defeat to Tipperary
Kilkenny have received an apology from the GAA for the scoreboard error in the closing stages of their All-Ireland semi-final defeat to Tipperary earlier this month. Various stakeholders in the county have been informed of the correspondence from Croke Park, which expresses regret for the mistake that impacted the conclusion of the game that Tipperary won by two points. Kilkenny and Tipperary were of the understanding that the latter were four points ahead after Noel McGrath's 70th minute point attempt. The shot was waved wide but the scoreboard counted it as a point. Following a Jordan Molloy point in the second minute of additional time, Kilkenny went in search of what they thought was a required goal to force extra-time when they were in fact only two points behind. Kilkenny, it is understood, wrote to Croke Park seeking clarification about the matter although a replay was never in question. The county's officials have refused to comment publicly on the matter and Tipperary manager Liam Cahill complimented the county's dignified stance. 'Like ourselves, if Kilkenny don't win it on the field, they ain't going to bring it to the boardroom, that's for sure.' On the evening of the game, the GAA released a statement acknowledging the error. "The GAA can confirm that the official score at the end of the Tipperary v Kilkenny GAA Hurling All-Ireland Senior Championship Semi-Final was 4-20 to 0-30. 'The GAA acknowledges there was confusion over the final score. The CCCC (Central Competitions Control Committee) is awaiting the full referee's report in order to establish how the initial mistake occurred." Speaking last week, the GAA's national match officials manager Donal Smyth said the error was down to a combination of factors. "It was a mixture of stuff. The time of the game probably didn't help. So at 69 minutes we had a Kilkenny sub, at 70 minutes the ball went wide, we had a Tipperary sub at the same time. "We didn't notice the scoreboard had changed in relation to that (McGrath's wide). Then the difficulty is we didn't get a break in play to stop the game to check the thing. "We've changed our processes last week and our protocols around that, so it's something we just have to work on." In the aftermath of the game, former GAA president Nickey Brennan said his native Kilkenny as well as Tipperary were due an apology. This past weekend, Kilkenny great Henry Shefflin spoke on The Sunday Game about how 'baffling' the communication was around the controversy. He added: "There hasn't been much noise about it and it seems it's just moved on'.

Irish women's basketball team consider ‘next steps' after being drawn against Israel once again in Euros qualifiers
Basketball Ireland said it was 'extremely alarmed by the ongoing humanitarian situation in Gaza' after the draw as the IDF's blockade and on-going military offensive continues in the Palestinian territory. Ireland are due to begin their European campaign against Luxembourg on November 12 at home before also facing Bosnia and Herzegovina (November 15) in Dublin and Israel away (November 18). However they may reluctant to play the Israelis again, given the Irish women's team found themselves in the middle of a diplomatic storm last year when they faced them in the previous European qualifying campaign. 'Basketball Ireland have spoken to FIBA Europe subsequently and are awaiting clarifications on a number of matters,' the governing body said in a statement this evening. 'Basketball Ireland will also be liaising with players, coaching staff, Sport Ireland, the Government, and other stakeholders over the coming days and we will provide an update next week.' While Ireland fulfilled last year's games citing fines and expulsion from competition, the worsening conditions in Gaza may change things with the World Health Organisation warning of famine conditions there.
