Minor Co. League: Our u17 boys got their County League Division 3A campaign underway last Saturday when they hosted Glenflesk. Glenflesk held the upper hand in the first half, capitalising on an error-strewn display by our lads, and led by 1-3 to 0-2 at halftime.

Thankfully Na Gaeil were much improved in the second half and scored some excellent points, eventually just edging the contest by a single point. Final score: Na Gaeil 0-12, Glenflesk 1-8. Next Saturday our lads face the long trip to South Kerry to play St. Michael’s Foilmore/Skellig Rangers.
