The Kerryman (South Kerry Edition)

Group phase reaches peak

County Board PRO Leona Twiss with all the GAA news

-

ROUND 3 of the Kerry Petroleum Club Championsh­ip goes ahead this weekend.

Games are fixed for both Saturday and Sunday. Full fixtures can be found on the Kerry GAA website.

The winner from the two Senior groups will meet in the final. The winners of each group in the Intermedia­te, Junior Premier and Junior will qualify for the semi-finals.

The lowest ranked teams will go into the playoff to avoid relegation. The draws for the semi-final pairings will be made live on Radio Kerry on Sunday evening.

A reminder that the County Board produces the programme handouts for neutral venues but for all ‘home’ games, the home PRO is responsibl­e for producing the handouts. All programmes produced by the County Board can be downloaded from the Kerry GAA website under the Clubzone section.

The first two Rounds have provided us with tight and intriguing games! In most groups it’s all to play for in Round 3 with some mouth-watering ‘winner takes all’ games in store!

Best of luck to all Clubs in Round 3!

Junior Football Leagues

THE 2019 County Junior football Leagues are scheduled to commence on Friday, May 17 and on the consecutiv­e Friday evenings of May 31, June 21, July 5 and July 19 with semi finals on Friday, August 2 and Group Finals on August 9 – all fixtures as per Eolaire 2019.

Clubs are encouraged to assess their players’ availabili­ty and discuss the merit of junior leagues as a definite commitment to fulfilling all scheduled fixtures is a necessity.

Junior Leagues are stand-alone competitio­ns designed solely for “B” and /or “C” players only i.e. for players other than those named on first / second “15s” lists as submitted to District Boards and County Board earlier this year.

Clubs are invited to confirm participat­ion in this year Junior Leagues by Friday April 19. Please indicate your preference to play at 15 or 13 aside, also for larger clubs whether you wish to enter one or two teams.
