1970: 

Junior Football League: Lissycasey Junior footballers scored a well deserved 1.9 to 0.5 win over Shannon in the Junior Football League. Lissycasey were never seriously troubled and were completely on top for the first half, which they led by 0.5 to nil. Best for Lissycasey were Martin Griffin (Capt) Michael Mc Mahon, P.J. Coughlan. Aidan Halpin. T.J. Talty and Jimmy Collins.

(Clare Champion 4th April 1970)

1965:

Cusack Cup: Lissycasey 3.3 Kilkee 1.4  The game opened at a good pace and there was a promise of better things to come as both sides showed some nice football.Unfortunately the early promise was not maintained  and the game got into a rut of poor football and was marred by incidents which might have assumed a more serious character but for the firm handling of the referee and the efforts of the officials from both teams, and the fact that many players on both sides refused to participate in rough exchanges. Final score. Lissycasey 3.3 Kilkee 1.4

(Clare Champion 22nd May 1965)

1940:

Ballynacally  Tournament final:  Ballynacally 3.3 Caherea 2.0 .The final of the Ballynacally Tournament ,which provided patrons with a fine exhibition of football, resulted in a win for Ballynacally. Caherea, fielding at full strength,were much fancied but there was no "fluke" about the Ballynacally success as they were masters for most of the hour.The match was played in a very sporting spirit and was a credit to both teams.The teams were slow to settle down but Ballynacally were the most dangerous. Caherea defence was under pressure from the throw in but Clancy , Hill & Moran  proved their worth and the game was ten minutes old when Ballynacally opened the scoring- a goal from a free by M Daly. This was followed by points from J Egan and O Toole. The Caherea forwards showed weakness at this stage and were easily mastered by the stonewall defence of the Murphys, Kelly's and Joe Gavin. Eventually they got through for a goal by Joe Daly  , but this score was negatived by a similar register for Ballynacally by J O Toole. Half Time score :Ballynacally 2.2 Caherea 1.0  On the resumption, Caherea looked like as if they would pull the game out of the fire,but the splendid work of J Egan and J Ryan for Ballynacally brought the game round in favour of the Juniors,and Callinan brought their total up to 3.2 with a well taken goal to be followed by a point from the same player. Canny , from a free, reduced the lead by a goal in the closing minutes. This closed the scoring. P.J. Murphy, at full back with John Egan and John Ryan were the most prominent Ballynacally players while John Hill, John Keane and Michael Daly played well fro Caherea. Mr James McInerney , Kildysart was an efficent and impartial Referee

(Clare Champion March 23rd 1940)
