WELL Lixnaw and Ballyduff will be back in Tralee next Sunday for the replay of the Garveys Supervalu Kerry SHC county final and hopefully the atmosphere will be just as special as it was yesterday.
County hurling final day is always a great occasion and both the minors and seniors played their part in a wonderful day out for the north Kerry hurling fraternity.
Here’s some images from the day…
