Tralee Parnells were narrowly defeated by Causeway, 6-3 to 5-0, on Saturday the 7th in their final game of the first round of the U-12 Kerry County Camogie League. All players pulled together in a tenacious display of teamwork that resulted in goals for Hannah Sharkey (2), Eimer Ni Shuilleabhan (2) and Clodagh Begley. While Clodagh B’s “puc fada” kept much of the play in the opposition’s half, solid defenders like Katie O’Dwyer shut down many dangerous moves in the Parnells half. To witness in person the 200% improvement in this team, come along on Sunday, June 29th at 12 noon when all 4 Kerry camogie clubs meet again as a warm-up for the Kerry v. Carlow championship game; North Kerry venue TBD.

On Saturday, June 7th, Tralee Parnells U8/10 camogie players travelled to Causeway to participate in the first of 4 summer blitzes. The girls had no problem racking up scores with Lana O’Connell’s superb goalkeeping skills keeping opposition scores at a minimum. Welcome back to Ciara Casey and Ciara Palmer who weren’t long blowing the cobwebs off their hurleys and getting “stuck” in with Jessica O’Loughlin! It is a testament to the tireless efforts of the U6 and U8 coaching staffs that such young players demonstrate such proficiency with a hurley. Tralee Parnells will be hosting the next blitz on Saturday, July 12th at 10:30 a.m. Venue TBD.
