The Kerry Intermediate Camogie team travels to St Rynagh’s GAA in Banagher on Saturday, (April 11), to face Meath in the Centra Camogie League Division 2 final.

The match marks a "trilogy" of sorts between the two sides, who have met in the final twice in the last three years, with one win apiece.

Meath took the honours in 2023, but Kerry struck back in 2024 to claim the title. This weekend’s encounter is the third league final for both counties in the space of just four years, cementing a fierce modern rivalry.

Kerry enter the final in top form following an unbeaten league campaign, recording four wins and one draw from their five matches.

Five Killarney-area players are central to the squad's success this season. Kate Lynch (Glenflesk/Clanmaurice), a mainstay since 2020, has successfully transitioned from midfield to become one of the team’s most dangerous forwards.

She is joined by dual stars Danielle O’Leary (Rathmore/Clanmaurice) and Kathryn Ryan (Glenflesk/Killarney Camogie Club).

O’Leary has made a significant impact since returning to the camogie fold after focusing on football, while Ryan has gained valuable inter-county experience as an impactful presence throughout the campaign.

The Killarney Camogie Club is also represented by Áine Devlin and Tiarna Dineen, both of whom have played key roles in securing Kerry’s place in the final.

Killarney Fire Station is set to undergo a major modernisation following the announcement of €1.2 million in funding under the Fire Services Capital Programme 2026-2030.

The investment is part of a broader €4.2 million package for Kerry and forms part of a national strategy developed by the National Directorate for Fire and Emergency Management (NDFEM).

The programme is designed to upgrade fire service infrastructure, fleet, and communication systems to better handle evolving emergency risks across the country.

The Killarney allocation will specifically fund the upgrade of the existing station facilities. This ensures that local crews have the modern tools and environment necessary to continue their work as the primary emergency responders for the town and surrounding areas.

Minister Norma Foley welcomed the funding, noting that fire services often act as the last line of defence for lives, homes, and businesses.

She stated that this investment ensures the service has the modern facilities required to meet its responsibilities to the community.

Welcoming the announcement Minister Norma Foley said: “I welcome this announcement from my Cabinet colleague, Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, James Browne T.D. Fire services are typically the last line of defence in protecting lives, homes and businesses from a myriad of hazards. This investment ensures they have the modern tools, facilities and systems required to meet that responsibility.”
