Croke Park was the place to be for club GAA action over the weekend.

On Saturday, Conahy Shamrocks won the junior hurling title, defeating Russell Rovers. That victory was the first of a clean for Kilkenny in the hurling deciders. Later that evening, Tullaroan beat Fr O'Neill's in a thrilling intermediate final.

On Sunday, Ballyhale Shamrocks created history, winning back-to-back hurling titles for the first time in the club's history with victory over Borris-Ileigh. It was Ballyhale's eighth senior title, the most now of any club, hurling or football.

That was followed by further history in the football final as Corofin defeated Kilcoo after extra-time to become the first club to win three consecutive All-Ireland titles.

Sportsfile were there to capture the best of the action.
