All Ireland Captains Homecoming
Congratulations to captain Dara Moynihan and team mate Niall McCarthy along with the team
and management, on retaining the Hogan Cup, and once again were welcomed to a spectacular homecoming in Spa. A traditional bonfire welcomed the team along with a great crowd to Tullig on Sunday evening. Chairman Gerard Mangan addressed the large attendance and gave great praise to the team and management of Gary McGrath, Hugh Rudden, Arthur Fitzgerald and Dr Gary Stack for bringing the back again to Killarney. Manager Gary McGrath spoke highly of the team, their behaviour and brilliant attitude to training. He also thanked Spa for arranging the event and gave special mention to the O'Sullivan Darcy family. Cait O'Sullivan Darcy travelled to every Sem Game and was on hand in Croke Park to congratulate the team. Ryan Kelliher also was part of the back ground team as Maor Uisce.
Dara Moynihan gave his captains speech and thanked everyone for coming especially the parents for their continued support over the year. He introduced the victorious team to the crowd individually.
The local media were on hand, politicians and East Kerry board officers. Thanks to everyone who helped with Bon fire and especially the hard working members in the kitchen.

Independence For Tiernan
Batty O'Sullivan's grandson, Tiernan 11years, suffers from Spina Bifida and is a wheel chair user. His room is upstairs and can no longer crawl up and down the stairs. He has been very sick for the past 6 months and has had 5 surgeries in this time. He's sleeping in the sitting room. As you can imagine this is very uncomfortable for Tiernan. His family are raising funds to build a room downstairs. Tickets can be purchased from the family or at the door on the night. €10 adult €5 children. Please support this worthy cause.
