New Kerry GAA jersey hits the shops

By Sean Moriarty
Kerry GAA players are set to look a whole lot different in the coming days as today (Friday) the new 2022 home jersey was unveiled.
The jersey will be available from early this morning at the Official Kerry GAA Store in the Killarney Outlet Centre.
The new jersey is returning to a more traditional look with the whole design centred on the iconic Kerry crest.
The Kingdom will wear the jersey for the first time when they take on Kildare this Sunday in Newbridge in Round 1 of the Allianz Football League.
Although the players have always carried this crest on their chest with pride and conviction, having these individual elements incorporated into the very fabric of the jersey intensifies this passion.
With the symbol of the GAA to the fore and of course Kerry’s artistry, history, flora and fauna emblazoned on the jersey – the tradition and values of the Kerry people and the history of this great county is showcased in this jersey.
“We hope that this jersey brings great success to the county and the players who wear it over the course of the season,” the GAA County Board’s assistant press officer Emma Sweeney, said.
“Synonymous with iconic Kerry jerseys is the sponsorship of Kerry Group who are a tremendous support to Kerry GAA in all areas and something which we are very grateful for."
The jersey is available online at www.kerrygaastore.ie.

A new event has been added to the extensive Wander Wild Festival next weekend.
Kerry Orienteers will run a family-friendly Urban Orienteering event as part of the festival on March 25.
Participants can start at the Killarney Plaza Hotel Basecamp anytime from 2-4pm on Saturday.
Orienteering is an exciting outdoor adventure sport which involves walking or running whilst navigating around a course using a detailed map and sometimes a compass. And the Wander Wild Street Orienteering will have courses suitable for all ages and abilities.
“The aim is to navigate in sequence between a set of control points and decide the best route to complete the course in the quickest time. It does not matter how young, old or fit you are, as you can run, walk or jog the course and progress at your own pace. If you need any help or tips members of Kerry Orienteering Club will be available to assist during the day,” said organiser Brendan O’Brien.
Two routes are available: ‘Wander’ – 2km (easy, wheelchair and buggy accessible) and Wild – 4km (moderate), and bookings can be made via: https://t.ly/jHm2R.

A popular annual table quiz, which raises funds to send Kerry children and young adults with special needs to Lourdes, will be held in Killarney next week.
The Tim Moore Memorial Table Quiz will be held in the Gleneagle Hotel at 7.30pm on Wednesday, March 29.
The entry fee for tables of four is €40 and it is €20 for teams of four schoolchildren with great prizes up for grabs on the night.
All proceeds will go to the Irish Pilgrimage Trust which organises trips to Lourdes every Easter for children and young adults with additional needs.
They will be brought on the pilgrimage on Easter Sunday and all the volunteer helpers and medical staff that will accompany them will cover for their own travel costs.
The annual quiz, which is running for close on 30 years, is dedicated to the memory of the late Killarney accountant Tim Moore who was a tireless campaigner for the Irish Pilgrimage Trust. He passed away, suddenly, in 2002 and his friends have continued the quiz as a tribute to his legacy and to ensure the charity continues to be supported.
It hasn’t been held for the past two years due to the pandemic but all involved are thrilled that it is back for 2023.
Kieran Coffey, the retired principal of Fossa National School, is one of those who spearhead the Kerry pilgrimage to Lourdes and he has appealed to the public to support the very important fundraiser which helps offset some of the costs involved.
“We are delighted to be in a position to continue Tim’s great work and to dedicate the quiz to him. The event is always so well supported by the people of the greater Killarney area and we greatly appreciate that generosity,” said Kieran.
