Minors Defeated in NK Final
The Desmond’s Minor Boys team travelled to Knocknagoshel on Monday evening where they played Listowel Emmets in the North Kerry Division 1 League final.
In a very enjoyable game of football in front of a large crowd Desmonds were unlucky to lose on the score of 2-18 to 2-14.
The score at half time was 1-14 to 1-5 in favour of Listowel.
Great credit to the players in regard to their display in the second half and it saw them only lost by four points on the night.
The players and management were treated to a meal in The Crown Bar, Castleisland after the game. Thanks very much to Denis Cronin and his staff on the much appreciated gesture on the night by all who attended.
Seniors Go Down to Templenoe
Our senior men’s team travelled to play Templenoe in Round 10 in the county league losing on the score of 4-19 to 0-6 on Sunday.
Next game for them is the North Kerry League Division 1 final against Ballydonoghue on Saturday September 9th in Listowel at 6:45pm.
