KERRY Football Club has announced it will team up with Tralee Food Aid ahead of a busy Christmas period.
As the 2024 kits are ready for launch, Kerry Football Club will host a food collection point this weekend in support of ‘Tralee Food Aid’s’ Christmas Hamper appeal.
‘Tralee Food Aid’ are actively looking for food donations (see list of items needed below) as they are busy preparing food hampers to give to those in need in the Tralee area this Christmas and in particular those who are homeless in the county capital.

As the club store is expected to be busy ahead of the launch of the 2024 New Balance Home & Away kits, they are asking anyone who intends to attend the club shop at Mounthawk this coming week to bring a non-perishable item out of their press to support the appeal.
Speaking on behalf of Kerry FC, Media Officer Ivan Hurley said; “As we enter into the busy festive period, it is often very important to take a step back to remember people who might be less fortunate than ourselves. Our kit launch is always a special occasion and we hope that we can use the busiest weekend of the year in our club shop to help families in need this Christmas. So the appeal is there, to anyone attending the shop this weekend to bring just one item out of the press and we will happily forward all donations to the Tralee Food Appeal on your behalf.”
The Kerry FC Club Shop will be open this weekend for the 2024 kit launches. The kits will be officially launched at 9 am this Friday, December 8.
