THE celebrations will continue for some time after the Kerry ladies’ magnificent win last Sunday and Friday morning saw the Brendan Martin Cup take a tour of Tralee GAA clubs.
Austin Stacks, Kerins O’Rahillys, John Mitchels and Na Gaeil are all holding their summer camps this week so it was an ideal opportunity to welcome members of the Kerry team with the silverware.
Aoife Dillane of Austin Stacks was joined by Na Gaeil’s Eilís O’Connor, Mary O’Connell and Deirdre Kearney, as well as joint-managers Darragh Long and Declan Quill and they received some welcome from the boys and girls on their tour.

“It was a huge honour to bring the Brendan Martin Cup to the Tralee clubs this morning,” said Declan Quill. “We got a great welcome at Austin Stacks. The excited faces when Aoife Dillane brought in the cup was lovely to see.
“We then headed to Kerins O’Rahillys where we received a massive welcome and there was loads of photos taken. At Na Gaeil we also got a great welcome and I saw a lot of my own pupils from Gaelscoil Mhic Easmainn.

“The sun was still shining when we got to John Mitchels and everyone was in great form. It’s wonderful to see the happy faces and the kids getting their jersey signed by the girls,” added Declan.
The Cup will be traversing the county over the coming weeks and months, with school visits on the horizon in September, so many more boys and girls can share in the excitement of a glorious victory. Scroll down for photos…
