The Killarney Salmon and Trout Angling Club held its annual prize-giving night on Saturday, at the Killarney Avenue Hotel, where members gathered to celebrate another successful year on the lakes and rivers of Killarney.

The club’s Juvenile Angler for 2025, Ian O’Leary, received the Scruffy’s Cup, presented by Club Juvenile Officer Frank O’Sullivan and Club Chairman D.J. O’Riordan.

Dermot Mahoney was the standout performer over the season, taking home two major awards the John Mannix Cup for the heaviest trout caught in competition this year and the Paddy O’Sullivan Cup for landing the heaviest fish across both the Killarney Salmon and Trout and Lough Lein clubs in 2025.

In the team category, the honours went to The Grumpy Old Men, sponsored by Tom Dennehy.
Despite the team name, there were smiles all around as members Anthony Griffin, Tim O’Connor, and John O’Callaghan (standing in for Tom Dennehy) accepted the trophy from Owen Casey, representing the Casey family, alongside Club Chairman D.J. O’Riordan.

Killarney singer-songwriter Lillie Foley launches her debut EP, ‘In Between’, on all major streaming platforms today, Friday May 15.

The 23-year-old artist first began releasing music in 2025 with the singles ‘Someday’ and ‘That’s Life’.

Her new project features five original tracks that mark a personal chapter in her songwriting, focusing on the experiences and uncertainties of life in your twenties.

“This project is really about feeling stuck between stages of life,” Lillie said. “At this age, there’s so much pressure to know exactly what you’re doing, and these songs came from not always having those answers.”

Through her lyrics and storytelling, the EP captures the process of navigating adulthood and personal growth. ‘In Between’ is available to stream now on Spotify, Apple Music, and other major digital platforms.
