Ladies football
U-14 Girls
The girls played away to Na Gaeil with a very small squad. Played well but lost eventually to the Tralee side.

Spa played Currow at home and a very exciting game. A high scoring game but our girls held out and won the decider in the end.

The ladies started their county league last Sunday away to Milltown Listry. Level at half time but lost to a stronger side on the day.
