Thomas O’Leary of Killarney was the big winner (or should that be ‘loser’?) in the Pat Sheehan Health & Fitness Operation Transformation as he lost an incredible 3st 2lbs in just 12 weeks. To put that into context, that’s 20% of his starting body weight.

Congratulations to Tom who won a two night stay with dinner on one night in the Sneem Hotel Co Kerry.

The 2nd place prize - two months membership for Club Vitae Leisure Centre - went to Christine O’Sullivan with an impressive loss of 1st 8.5lbs (13.88% of her starting body weight). 3rd prize was a draw for everyone who finished the 12-week weight loss program. Jer Leary was the lucky person drawn out of the hat and he won one month’s membership for Club Vitae Leisure Centre.

Pat’s next Operation Transformation won't be until September 2018 but if you can’t wait until then you can do your own private one-to-one 12-week weight loss program at Club Vitae or at Pat’s second office, The Loft Fitness Studio in Millstreet. Call 087 6856930 to find out more and to see more transformations visit the Pat Sheehan Health & Fitness Facebook page.

Congratulations to everyone for achieving their goals over the last 12 weeks keep the great work up.

The weekend will feature a Team of Four competition. Entry is €40 per person or €160 per team. Online entry is available through the club’s booking system at www.killarneygolfclub.ie. A dedicated fundraising page for donations has also been set up at www.idonate.ie.
A charity raffle will also run throughout the weekend, featuring green fees for top golf courses and various prizes donated by local supporters.
“The work Jack and Jill do for families in Kerry and across Ireland is extraordinary,” Captains Tomás Kelliher and Annette McNeice said in a joint statement. “We are proud to play our part in helping them continue that mission and look forward to welcoming members and visitors for a fantastic weekend of golf.”

The Scorchers Cheerleading club has made history after their senior team, Code Black, secured a bronze medal at the All Star World Championships in Orlando, Florida.

Competing against 44 elite teams from around the world, the Killarney-based squad finished on the podium in one of the most competitive cheerleading events globally. The achievement follows a strong run of form for the club, which recently earned a direct bid to bypass the opening “Battle Round” and advance straight to the semi-finals based on their previous performance scores.
The team’s success in Florida is the result of months of intensive training at their local base. Head Coach Katlyn Moynihan noted that the athletes’ dedication and focus throughout the season were key to their performance on the world stage.
“To stand on that podium is an incredible achievement,” she said. “These athletes have given everything this season, and to see it all come together in Orlando is very special.”
Club owner Jackie Jeal highlighted the significance of the result, given the disparity in resources compared to major American programmes.
“We are a small club from a corner of Ireland without the facilities of the top US teams,” she said. “They proved that teamwork and heart can stand with the best in the world. To bring home a bronze medal against those odds is a historic milestone for our club.”
The Scorchers have seen a massive wave of support from the Killarney and wider Kerry community, with local fundraising efforts helping to get the team to the United States.
