Erne Eagles of Cavan won the GAA Rounders Council Senior Ladies All-Ireland Champinship in 2001, having defeated Lissan of Derry in the Final. Carlow’s Bagenalstown won the Championship in 2002 and 2003, and then Dublin’s Limekiln, based in Tymon Park, won the 2004 and 2005 Championships. Erne Eagles won the Championship again in 2006 and 2007, before Bagenalstown took the title for the third time in the decade in 2008. Mayo’s Castlebar were then Champions in 2009, and the Final Honours of the decade went to St. Clare’s of Cavan in 2010.
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.
