NÓTAÍ NA mBAN
Gaelic football is a big part of life in Kerry. We all take pride in the success of our teams , from coach to player, to supporter in both ladies and mens…
All roads lead to Croke Park last Sunday the second week in a row for many of us., this time for the Kerry Ladies All Ireland final v Meath . Our bus load of supporters wore their green and gold to support and cheered on Declan Quill as joint Kerry manager and the team from the Cusack Stand lower tier.
It was wonderful to see such a great turnout for our Kerry ladies. On arrival in Croke Park supporters were given flags sponsored by TG4 with their club colours…a lovely touch.
The girls had a fantastic day out and enjoyed themselves. This is something we haven’t been able to do the past few years so last Sunday’s trip was extra special for us.
We may not have brought home the Brendan Martin Cup but are over the moon with what our Senior county ladies, management and executive have achieved. Well done to everyone!

Well done to everyone who attended training last Sunday.

The coaches are encouraging the children to practice at home as much as they can wether it’s their solo, hand passing or kicking skills, even if it’s for 5-10 minutes each evening it all adds up.
