The Brewster cup hasn’t been played in 2 years, it being the last Munster competition played in March 2020 before we went into our first lockdown.

Kerry were up against Waterford in UL sports centre on Sunday March 20th. The games were close but Kerry came out on top with a win of 6 games to 3. It is the first time Kerry has retained the cup. Congratulations to Sinead Galvin, captain, and the rest of the Kerry team on their brilliant win.
