U10 and U11 Hurling
Our U10s and U11s travelled to Clonlara on Saturday for the annual Jack Moriarty Tournament. The U10s played matches against Clonlara and Wolf Tones from Shannon while the U11s faced Clonlara, Broadford and Scariff Ogonnelloe. After some fantastic hurling and close matches our boys made it to the final for each group and after two cracking games came away with a win at both age groups. Well done to the boys and management.
Junior Hurling
Hard luck to our Junior hurlers who lost the South Kerry Junior Championship semi-final against Dr Crokes in Killarney last Friday night by a single point on a score line of Parnells 2-17 Crokes 5-9. The result was in the balance until the final whistle, with Crokes getting goals at crucial times. That was the final game of the season for the Juniors and the club would like to thank them and their Manager, Paul Daly, for their commitment during the year.
Attention now turns back to our Senior hurlers as they prepare for their Munster Junior Club Championship Quarterfinal vs Banner of Clare on Saturday 4th November at 1:30pm. In preparation they have a North Kerry Junior League Final vs Lixnaw (date tbd) and a South Kerry Senior Championship semi-final vs Dr Crokes on 28th October.
