SENIOR MEN
Our O'Donoghue Cup campaign got off to a successful start when we accounted for a spirited Fossa outfit at the Gortroe venue. The inside trio of Ryan O Grady , James O Donoghue and David O Sullivan put us into a 0-5 to 0-4 lead after the first quarter . Peter McCarthy was next to find the target and further efforts from Ryan O'Grady and cousin Finbarr Murphy had us two points ahead on the scoreboard at half time. Jameso made it 0-9 to 0-6 early in the second half before Darragh Lyne burst through the Fossa defence to ram home a fine goal. But almost straight after Fossa replied with one of their own. But a flurry of points from Jameso(4), Finbarr Murphy and Jonathan Lyne succeeded in putting daylight between the sides. Fossa did nip in for another goal but substitute Sam Benson chipped in with a brace of points to seal the deal.

EAST KERRY LADIES.
Six of our U16 Ladies are still busy representing the East Kerry district in the County Championship. Kate O Toole and Laura Healy were part of the U17 team that had a great win over South Kerry in Kenmare on Sunday morning. Elsewhere Grace O Shea, Ali Bowler, Kate Fleming and Emily O'Shea were involved with the East Kerry U15 side who unfortunately lost out to Castleisland District on Saturday.
PETER KEANE
The very best of luck to our former Senior team manager as he looks to take up the role of Clare Senior football team manager. No better man for the job.
