Jordan Lee selected for Ireland’s Para Athletics relay team
Killarney Valley AC has celebrated another historic milestone following the selection of international Paralympic athlete Jordan Lee for Team Ireland’s first-ever Para Athletics 4x100m Universal Relay squad.
The selection marks a landmark step for Irish Para Athletics, with the newly formed team focusing its long-term sights on the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games. Jordan, a high-jump specialist, has recently added the shot putt to his competitive disciplines, and his performance through recent trials secured his place in this groundbreaking relay unit.
The Universal Relay is a unique event in Para Athletics, featuring athletes from different impairment groups competing together. Everyone at KVAC and across the town has extended their best wishes to Jordan as he prepares to represent Ireland on the global stage.

The Kerry International Film Festival (KIFF) Film Club continues its monthly series next week with a screening of the award-winning documentary, Gerry Adams: A Ballymurphy Man.
The screening will take place on Wednesday, April 22, at 8:00pm at Cinema Killarney. Supported by Screen Ireland, the film club aims to bring modern Irish cinema to local audiences in a relaxed and social environment.
