Joe Clifford, whose horse Oreo, won the Na Gaeil Gold Cup at their annual Race Night recently, being presented with a cheque for €1,000 by club treasurer Cathy Carey. Also in picture are Race Night committee members Colm O’Súilleabháin, Donal Lucey, and Tim Lynch Snr. Joe was delighted that his horse won the big race as was the trainer Noah Clifford and the jockey Aoileann Clifford.

Intermediate Final    Na Gaeil will play Beaufort in the County Intermediate Final on this coming Saturday, December 4th in Fitzgerald Stadium at 1.45pm.

This is a historic day for the club as it is our first time reaching the final of this competition. Na Gaeil and Beaufort are no strangers to each other as they have met frequently in big games over the last number of years. All have been close contests with little separating the sides in the end.

So Saturday’s encounter should be no different. It is indeed a great occasion for our club and we urge you all co come out and support the team next weekend for what should be a cracking game of football. We wish the Na Gaeil squad and management team the very best of luck.

Tickets    Tickets for the Intermediate Final can be purchased on the Kerry GAA website.  Tickets for the Senior County Final the following day between Austin Stacks and Kerins O’Rahillys which takes place in Austin Stack Park are also available for purchase.

Hats & Flags    Na Gaeil car flags and beanie hats are for sale in the clubhouse and in Byrnes Spar, Oakpark so we look forward to seeing you sporting your club colours at the final.
