The Kerry U13 headed to the Galway Cup the week gone. They had 2 squad made up of 20 players each. With 14 Park FC players between both squads 9 in the elite and 5 in the boys squad! A great achievement for any club to have so many players representing their county! Both side came second in the respective group and went in to the Plate Final.
Kerry Elite play Dundalk in the Plate Final. Kerry went up 1-0 after 16 mins. Eoghan Hassett with the goal.
Dundalk equalised 2 mins later.
Kerry go back in front after 14 minutes of the second half. Cianan Cooney(Park) with a cracking free kick.
Kerry concede goal in last minute to send the game to penalties.
Hard luck on the Kerry boys who lost out 4-2 on penalties.
