The Kerryman (South Kerry Edition)
Fossa hosts Scór finals
THE East Kerry Scór na nÓg took place in Fossa Community hall. Seven clubs competed in this GAA competition: Dr. Crokes, Firies, Glenflesk, Gneeveguilla, Kilcummin, Legion and Spa and again each brought their A game.
The standard was superior with only the minimum of points separating the winner from runner up. Bean an Tí, East Kerry Scór Officer, Amy Reidy was on hand to take control of procedures throughout the afternoon and thanked everyone especially the club scór officers who are the backbone for this successful competition.
Chairman Johnny Brosnan, thanked the clubs, Scór officers, competitors, parents, judges, Fossa Hall, Eileen and Michael Aherne (stewards) Gerard Mangan for sound and Anne Holland (photos).
Special mention to our major sponsor, Killarney Credit Union and Helen Courtney Power who presented the cheque on the day. Further thanks went to the other volunteers in the form of fellow East Kerry Board officers Áine Ní Riada and Dermot Coffey for their usual professionalism.
Every competitor is a winner and a credit to their clubs, unfortunately one must advance to represent their district in the County Final to be held in Glenbeigh on December 15.
