KILLARNEY LEGION

JUNIOR LEAGUE: Killarney Legion 0-11 Glenflesk 1-7

A nice mix of youth and experience for the junior side as they edged out Glenflesk in a close fought encounter in Derreen.The Legion had the better of matters in the first half and went in at the break leading 0-6 to 0-3. Glenflesk upped their game in the second half and hit an unanswered 1-1 in the early stages but this brought a good response from the Legion who replied with a series of points from Finbarr Murphy and young Mike Devlin to steady the ship.Adam Moynihan in goal had a sound game and indeed Darren Looney and Damien Lyne in the halfback line were solid throughout.A tit for tat run in saw the Legion edge out the contest by the minimum at the final whistle but no doubt they’ll benefit from the tight game and have the potential to develop into a very good side as they get more game time.

KERRY UP AND RUNNING: Not a difficult challenge for Kerry against Clare but great to see James back and injury free after such a run of bad luck. ANOTHER SUCCESS: Congratulations to Áine Devlin and her St.Olivers School teammates who won the Kerry Primary skills competition held at the John Mitchels complex, Áine herslf has had a busy year as she made it three wins in a row at the Scór recitation held earlier in the year, a girl of many talents.
