Review of u8 and u10 girls team’s season: The u8s and u10s trained every weekend during the year with their coaches helping to improve their skills along the way. They also took part in a few blitzes and played very well in these. The future is bright for the club.
Review of u9 boys team’s season: A good year was had by all with Na Gaeil under 9’s this season. We returned in January to indoor training for the first couple of months as we eagerly awaited our return to the pitch once the weather was a little more amenable.
We regularly had 25 – 30 players at our training session and once we returned to the pitch we introduced a second weekly training session on Tuesday evenings, again with a great participation rate from our young players.
A big thank you to the Behan and McCarthy families, who very generously kitted our under 9’s with their first ever set of jerseys. These were worn with great pride as we participated in many friendly matches as well as our Go Games league around Kerry.
To finish the season off our players played in very competitive blitzes in both UL Sports Grounds and Connolly Park here in Tralee, where both their behaviour and footballing ability was kindly commented on by opposing coaches.
