The Kerry ladies can book their place in the 2025 NFL Division 1 final by beating Meath at home in Austin Stack Park today (Saturday). The game throws in at 2pm.

Mark Bourke’s team are currently second in Division 1, three points (one win) behind leaders Armagh and three ahead of the Royals with two rounds of fixtures remaining.

Victory in Tralee would guarantee their qualification for the league decider, setting up a rematch of the 2024 league final against Armagh. The Orchard County prevailed that day in Croke Park, although the Kingdom were able to exact revenge later in the summer when they won the All-Ireland semi-final tie between the sides before also going on to win the final.

A draw against Meath would also more than likely be enough for Kerry considering their vastly superior points difference (+25 versus +3). Defeat would send it to the final day on March 29 with Kerry at home to Dublin and Meath away to Armagh.

There was good news for Kerry corner back Eilís Lynch this week as the Castleisland Desmonds player was named on the AIB Ladies Gaelic Football Club Championship Team of the Year. Desmonds won last season’s County and Munster Championships.

Meanwhile, Brian Looney and Micheál Burns of Dr Crokes were named on the AIB GAA Club Championship Team of the Year, with Burns also being shortlisted for Club Footballer of the Year alongside Con O’Callaghan (Cuala) and Ruairí Canavan (Errigal Ciaran). O'Callaghan was selected as the winner at a ceremony in Dublin last night.
