PEIL FAOI 13: The Under 13 boys are preparing enthusiastically for the upcoming Corn an Róis Competition which will be sponsored by Jer and James Ó Donnchú of Oaklands ‘Daybreak’ Shop in Oakpark.
PEIL FAOI 14: (i) Our 14Bs played Castleisland Desmonds in Division 3 of the Central League on Monday last.
(ii) Our A boys travelled to Ballymac last week to play in the Central League. We were not at our very best in a close encounter in Arabella on a humid autumn evening…the teams were much closer than the score suggests!
Ben Quilter in goal had to be sharp on a number of occasions to save our bacon! Defenders Donncha Fox and Joey Nagle put in a full shift and worked frantically, feverishly and tirelessly…as did many others.
Dean Rusk, our midfield dynamo, kicked 2 fine points and delivered quality ball to the forwards. Donnacha Sayers scored 6 points. Shane Bastible had contributed 1-3 before a cárta dubh brought an untimely termination to his contribution. However, in his absence, wing forwards Evan Foley and Seán Collins picked up the slack and gained a lot of good possession that greatly helped to kill the goose.
Full-time score: Austin Stack Club A: 2-16; Ballymac A: 3-6. Well done, Rockmen!! Our A boys have now qualified for the semi-final of the league and will challenge the winners of the Ardfert v Castlegregory upcoming game.
(iii) Our boys on the Kerry Under 14 Football Development Squad: Armin Heinrich, Joey Nagle, Dean Rusk, Shane Bastible, Conor Horan, Jordan Kissane.

(ii) Division 7: Our B boys had a big win over Asdee/Ballylongford last week and this week they take on the might of the John Mitchel Club boys.
