This week's photo shows the Ballinacourty football team that won the County Intermediate Title in 1965. Early rounds produced victories over Cappoquin and Affane before a decisive 2-8 to 0-2 Western Final win against Clashmore. The County Final, played at Fraher Field in November, saw another decisive victory, this time over Rathgormack on a scoreline of 3-9 to 1-0. Thus, Ballinacourty entered the senior ranks for the first time in the club's 18 year history.
