PEIL FAOI 11/12:
We had a most enjoyable visit thiar i bPáirc an Ághasaigh sa Daingean on Friday (19th) last and what a return game we had with a great team from West Kerry! Two rip-roaring ties took place and our boys were hell bent on reversing the drubbing that the Dingle garsúin gave us in Connolly Park a few weeks ago. Despite missing a few big guns we welcomed back some equally good ‘ammunition’ from the opening tie. Two great games took place and, even though no scores are officially kept, our boys’ arms were aloft at the final whistle. Agus is leor nod don eolach! That completes our Under 12 outdoor season for 2025. They’re a great gang of youngsters and, gan dabht ar domhan, they’re a group of footballers who can look forward to many more happy and fruitful days in the Black‘n’Amber sna blianta atá romhainn amach! Thanks to mentors Colin Teahan, Ciarán Murphy, Finbarr Canty, Kevin Counihan, TJ Hogan and Tim McMahon who looked after the boys during the year. Thanks to PST and Colin (managing director of PST Sport) for sponsoring a nice bite of bia blasta in The Brogue for the boys. (Tim Mac Mathúna)

(i) Our U14B team defeated a strong Milltown/Castlemaine team in the Central League (Division 5) final last week. Mighty men!
(ii) The Rock U14 boys are the Central League (two divisions), the County League and the 39th Lee Strand Tournament champions for 2025! That’s a huge haul of medals for our lads! And well deserved! They’re a grand group of great and gallant grafters! (Seanachán Magnier)
