The Killarney Legion Under 15 Ladies Feile adventure continues this Saturday when they travel to Moyle Rovers GAA in County Tipperary, where they will represent Kerry in the Regional Feile finals for 2024.

Having won the Kerry competition in May, the girls now advance to the regional finals where they are drawn to play teams from Limerick, Wexford and Westmeath in the group stages.
A lot of hard work has been put in behind the scenes within the club to fundraise for the occasion. A club bingo night was a roaring success which was followed by the clubs annual Under 10 girls’ blitz during which a monster bake sale was held.
The club also embarked on a Re-Turn to Feile initiative, whereby members were asked to donate their plastic bottles and cans so the club could benefit from a Re-Turn refund.
“Great credit goes to our Under 15 ladies on not only qualifying for the event but in the way they took ownership of the fundraising ideas we put in place to self-fund the occasion,” said Ladies Chairperson Ted Healy.
“Special mention also to our young ladies families for the support received over the past few weeks. Of course these events don’t run themselves and would not have been possible but for the hard work of a group of volunteers behind the scenes and the support of all club members.”
“We are very grateful to all our sponsors who very kindly got behind our events in donating prizes for our bingo night and indeed to all who contributed the delicious home baking to our bake sale. “
“It has been great to see the club get behind this group of young women to ensure Saturday is a day that will live long in the memory.”
The team were presented with their new Feile gear at training on Tuesday night where the excitement was palpable.
The group, who play at both Under 14 and under 16 level in the club, have been looked after this year by Ted Healy, Kieran O Shea, Donal O Leary, Timmie Joe Fleming, John Bowler, Shane MacSweeney, Sharon O Shea and Noelle O Brien. The team is being captained by full back Liadan Coleman.
The team bus departs Killarney at 7am Saturday morning when the adventure continues.
