pts to 6 in game one and in game two Currow/Currans 35 pts to 10 to qualify for the semi-final. Here they met favourites Rathmore/ Gneeveguilla and in a ding dong battle just came up short by 30 pts to 20. In truth a lot closer than the 10 pts difference at the end. In the play-off game this was an intriguing encounter as Moyvane/ had reached this stage for the very first time of asking; with players on both sides also play together for St Joseph=92s in the County league made it all the more interesting. Duagh/Lyre held a narrow lead of 3 pts at half time and got the next few crucial scores at the start of second half and went on to claim the bronze medals on a scoreline of 31 pts to 20 for Moyvane/Knockanure who received the certs. Castleisland went on to claim the title by just 1 pt. 25 to 24 for Rathmore/Gneeveguilla, just shows how close the boys were. Well done to each athlete you should be proud of your achievement. Team: Eoghan Dowling, J D Cotter, Mike Galvin, Mikey Kelly, Dermot o Brien, Luke Sheridan, Jack Collins, Jack O=92Carroll. Coach Clare Sheehy. Thanks to all the volunteers over the two days of basketball, thanks to Duagh Sports Complex and to Liz and Geraldine for the supply of refreshments.

TRACTOR RUN
There was a huge turnout for the now very successful James Ashe Memorial Tractor run which took place on Sunday last. Over 100 tractors took part in the run and many more of this fantastic group of fundraisers took to the roads with buckets.
James Ashe (RIP) did huge fundraising over the years for many Cancer Services along with the Anvil group. The Ashe family along with the gang have continued his great work and the tractor run is now a hugely successful day out. The whole community were out in force on Sunday and it was great to see the huge support.
Well done and thank you to the Ashe family, all who organised this great event and all continue to support the Palliative Care Unit/Kerry Hospice Foundation.
Also to all the people who took part in the run, who volunteered along the way, who held buckets or supported the event in any way we thank you. We look forward to next year and another fantastic day out.
