The U14 Tournament was won by Team Clare with victory over Malahide in the decider. The U12 Tournament Cup competition was won by Bantry with St. Brendan’s winning out the Plate competition on Saturday.
U12 GIRLS FINALISTS
On Sunday it was the turn of the U11s and the Cup competition went to St. Brendan’s who won out by 4 points over Bantry in the final.
The girls were deserved winners having performed very well throughout the day and accounting for Glanmire, Limerick Celtics and Tralee Magic on the way to the Final.
On Saturday it is the turn of the Boys U12s playing the Bruddy Burrows Memorial Tournament with action getting underway in Moyderwell and Pres Tralee at 9.00am.

On Sunday next St. Brendan’s Basketball Club will lead out the Tralee St. Patrick’s Day Parade in recognition of the club’s 30th Anniversary. It is very fitting that Club President and founding member of the club Charles O’Sullivan will be the Grand Marshall for the event.
