Spa U9s enjoy a sunny morning in Muckross

Our U9 group enjoyed a visit to Muckross on Saturday morning for a fun walk before a kick-around on the green.

With the Spa GAA club grounds closed this week due to work on the car park, the U9 mentors decided to make the most of the sunshine and invited the players and parents to join them for a kick around in the National Park instead.

Wonderful to see our juveniles enjoying a beautiful sunny morning at Muckross!

Credit Union Senior Football League

In Round 5 of the Credit Union SFL, we fortunately secured our second win after a 6-point defeat over Castleisland Desmonds. After a slow start against the breeze in the first half we saw ourselves 2 points down facing in to the second half

It was with thanks to a goal in the opening few minutes of the second half that saw us to take the lead for the first time in the game. With the extra man playing to our advantage after Castleisland Desmonds were down to 14 men after one of their men was shown a second yellow, the final score was Spa 02-13 Castleisland Desmonds 1-10. Well done to the team and Management, they battled it out until the final whistle to secure the win

Spa welcomed Corca Dhuibhne to Killarney last Sunday for Round 3 in Division 1 of the Donal Curtin Cup

We were against the wind to begin with and played well to finish the first half just two points behind with a score of 3-04 to 3-06 to the visitors. We had a great start to the second half and opened with a goal and dominated for the 3rd quarter but Corca Dhuibhne never gave up and continued to kick for points at every opportunity which led to a very exciting finish with us two points up with three minutes to go. Corca Dhuibhne threw everything at us and were rewarded with a goal in the final minutes to go one point ahead. Spa was on a counter attack but unfortunately ran out of time as the ref blew the final whistle.

In the next round of this competition the Ladies will be playing Southern Gael away in two weeks' time
