Feile na nGaeil
Congratulations to the U15 Camogie team who were crowned Kerry Camogie John West Feile Na nGael Division 1 champions for a second year in a row! The County Feile group stages got off to a great start for Parnells on Saturday with three wins from three at the ARC against Causeway, Cillard and Ballyduff. As a result, this young team qualified for the Division 1 Cup Final which was held on Sunday at Crotta GAA Grounds. Parnells faced a determined Cillard team which didn’t fail to entertain the crowd which resulted in a close encounter as always with Tralee Parnells coming out on top to retain their Division 1 County Feile title! They will now progress to Division 3 National Feile na nGael in late June. Congratulations and well done to all the players involved and to the Management Team- David Brick, Aine Lambe, Brian Shanahan and Lynda Harris. Thanks to Cillard for great battle as always! Well done to all involved from The Kerry County Board for organising a great competition over the weekend, referee Mike Hennessy and to the ARC and Crotta GAA for their use of their facilities. Well done to all the teams involved it was a fantastic festival of Camogie!
U12 Camogie
The U12’s enjoyed a blitz organised by Kerry Camogie in Caherslee last Monday morning. The girls played four competitive and challenging games against Causeway, Cillard, Killarney and Sliabh Luachra. Impressive skill levels and tenacity ensured all games were contested at a high standard. A special word of thanks to Nuala Hinchy for co-ordinating the day and to referees Sarah and Muireann. All new players are welcome to come and join this fantastic bunch
