Great things are predicted for Killarney pool player Matthew Maye who recently won the All-Ireland Junior Championship.

Matthew came from behind to win the title at the Gleaneagle Hotel recently.

Maye has only recently started entering pool competitions although he is also a well-respected snooker player at the Cue Club.

“Matthew is only 20 years of age and only in recent months started to enter pool tournaments, taking a break from the snooker table which he would be more familiar with,” said Niall Marshall, Chairperson of Kerry Pool Association.

“We have no doubt that Matthew will go on to bigger things in the game if he puts in the hard work and dedication that is required.”

Matthew won the All-Ireland final by beating experienced Tyrone man David McClements on a score-line of eight frames to three.
