Killarney badminton star Sinead Galvin delivered a strong individual performance representing Ireland at the Scottish International Masters Championships in Glasgow last weekend.

Despite Galvin winning her match in impressive fashion, it was not to be for the national side as Scotland proved too strong overall.
The highly experienced Killarney club player was selected for the Irish squad following a string of top-form performances, including a recent victory at the Leinster Masters Open.
Carrying high hopes into the international fixture at the Sir Craig Reedie Centre, Galvin justified her selection by securing a hard-fought win in her category.
However, the depth of the Scottish team across the various age groups eventually told on the scoreboard with the home side claiming the overall victory with a 25-15 match score.

Mastergeeha Football Club’s Under 12 coach Ramona Keogh has been selected for a high-profile international coaching programme in Italy.

Ramona is one of just ten grassroots coaches from across Ireland chosen to participate in this first-of-its-kind initiative.

The programme is a collaboration between the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) and Léargas, a national agency that manages international exchange programmes.

As part of the selection, Ramona will travel from Kilbrean to Como, Italy, to spend over a week immersed in the professional environment of Como 1907.

During the trip, the Killarney coach will work directly with the staff, coaches, and various teams at the Italian club.

The experience is designed to provide Irish grassroots leaders with insights into elite European coaching methods, which can then be brought back to local clubs like Mastergeeha.

The selection is a significant personal achievement for Ramona and a boost for the Mastergeeha coaching setup as she prepares for the trip of a lifetime to the shores of Lake Como.
