Park have players to cause upset

FAI YOUTHS CUP QUARTER FINAL Freebooters (Kilkenny) v The Park Sunday March 11 Kilkenny 2pm

THE Park carry the Kerry flag into the last eight of the FAI Youth Cup when they travel to play Kilkenny side Freebooters on Sunday. In normal circumstances The Park would have a good chance in this game but unfortunately they have lost five of the side that beat Conn Rangers as they have signed up for the Kerry under-17 side.

This has left the club scrambling for players so it will be interesting to see the quality of players that willl have the responsibility of replacing them. They lost Leon Shalemba, Jr Tshikato, Jordan Barry, John Carmody, David Oba and they face enormous task without these key players.

However, they wont be travelling just to make up the numbers and will be hoping they can come away with a win but given the circumstances it will be very difficult to achieve.

They still have some very talented players and if they play up to scratch they could upset the apple cart.
