IT’LL be some craic tonight in Austin Stack Park when the All-Ireland champions take part in the GOAL Challenge charity match.
The victorious Kerry team will play an exhibition ‘A versus B’ match on the night with plenty of scores and family fun guaranteed. Players and management will be available for autographs and pictures while the Sam Maguire cup will also be on display.
There is speculation that a number of guest appearances will be made on the night. Our money is in Paul Galvin, Colm Cooper and Eamonn Fitzmaurice making short cameos.

Throw-in is scheduled for 7pm and it’s all for a great cause.
“We are very thankful to the Kerry County Board, to the management team and most of all to the players for taking the time to play this match for GOAL on Wednesday evening; their support is invaluable,” said GOAL CEO, Barry Andrews. “We had two great GOAL Challenge matches last year in Dublin and Clare, and particularly with the double success for Kerry on Sunday, I have every confidence that this event will be even more of a success.”
All proceeds from the GOAL Challenge match will go towards GOAL’s response to the Ebola crisis in Sierra Leone.
