RIP:  The club would like to extend its deepest sympathy to Jenny & James Prendergast on the death of Jenny’s sister Mary Corridon, Knockmoyle last week. May she rest in peace.

Kerry Ladies: The excitement is building ahead of the Kerry Ladies battle with Dublin next Sunday in the All-Ireland final. Best wishes to Na Gaeil players Mary O’Connell, Eilís O’Connor and Deirdre Kearney along with Laura Fitzgerald who is the team’s goalkeeping coach.

Incredibly its 30 years since Kerry last won the title so hopefully the experience of having played in the final last year will stand to the girls and they’ll be successful.

Kerry Ladies u18s: Congratulations to Cara Gannon and the Kerry LGFA u18 team who beat Sligo in the All-Ireland U18B final last Saturday in Nenagh. Kerry won by 2-6 to 1-6.

Senior Men: All roads lead to Fitzgerald Stadium next Sunday for the first round of the Kerry Petroleum Senior Club Championship where Na Gaeil will take on Kenmare Shamrocks. Throw-in is at 1.30pm. Good luck lads.

U15 County Championship: The St Brendans Board u15 team drew with Eoghan Ruadh last Wednesday night in Blennerville.

U17 County Championship: St. Brendans Board u17 team were defeated by Kenmare Shamrocks in their second game of the Keanes Supervalu Co. Championship in Churchill last Wednesday night. Final score St Brendans Board 0-10, Kenmare Shamrocks 2-9. The result means that St Brendans will play Mid Kerry in the Shield semi-final next Monday August 14th, possibly in Currow.

U5 Boys & Girls: New members are always welcome. Contact Denis on 087-2808719.

U7 Boys & Girls: We had 18 kids in our U7 group last Thursday evening. We had a few fun games of crazy solo, kick and pass, hold and hand pass followed by a tightly contested game. The kids are all looking forward to our club camp this week.

U11 Boys: Our under 11s had a very energetic session yesterday morning in Killeen. The boys practiced kicking and hand passing before a shot of 5-a-side mini games where every boy got plenty ball time. Well done boys. The boys are due to host Kerins O’Rahillys next Thursday, Aug. 10th at 6.30pm.

U13 Boys: U13 Central Region semi-final result: Na Gaeil 0-9, Austin Stacks 0-6. For the sixth time this year the town rivals locked horns. With the teams knowing each other so well, both teams cancelled each other out for the majority of the game.

Austin Stacks started the better and led 4 points to no score with the half almost up, until Eoin Tansley registered our only score of the half to leave us trailing 4-1 at the break. The second half was all Na Gaeil and from the tenth to the eighteenth minute we outscored our hosts 8-0.

Aaron Donovan was playing his best football of the year while Andy Costello was reliable as ever on frees. Nathan Anthony was playing a pile of ball at wing forward while Ibrahim Altayan and Seán O’Connell were marshalling the Stacks forwards excellently.

Well done to all, we await the winners of Ardfert and John Mitchels in the final. Team: Ben O’Sullivan, Dean O’Leary, Seán O’Connell, Éanna Leahy, Jake Barrett, Ibrahim Altayan, Philip Doyle, Eoin Tansley, Tom Slattery, Nathan Anthony, Aaron O’Donovan, James Kelly, Joe Field, Andy Costello, Donagh O’Connell, Eoin Hannon, Jonathan Sheehy, Jayden Chawke, Rory John O’Brien, Danny Brick.

U14 Girls: Unfortunately our u14 girls lost to Dingle last Tuesday night in Killeen in the County League quarter final. The girls still have a North Kerry League to play as well as a Town League so there’s still lots of football to be played.

Development Squads: Good luck to Liam Cooper and the Kerry North U16 team who play Mayo in Tuam next Saturday in the National Development League final.
