U16 Camogie
Tralee Parnells achieved history with a win over Cillard in the U16 County League final. This is the oldest age group that have won a County League for the club, a fantastic achievement for all of these young ladies which is something they should be very proud of. Huge work has gone into this group over the last number of years, well done and congratulations to all the players involved and especially to the coaches David, Brian, Sinead and Natalie. Parnells led from start and showed their quality as the game progressed, winning comfortably in the end. Thank you to Cillard for a sporting game, to referee Mike Hennessy and to Siobhan Herbert (Co Board) for presenting the Cup to Captain Anna Chute. Special mention to Joe Wallace for having Caherslee pitch in pristine condition!

It was great to see the continued improvement and a special well done to those who played their first game of the season. A special thank you to Donnacha Buttimer for refereeing the matches.
