Club Notes Week 14 2026
SFL Div. 1
Dr. Crokes 1:10 Austin Stacks 2:22. We were defeated by Austin Stacks in a competitive County Senior Football League clash in Tralee on Sunday last. A slow start and a number of early wides allowed the home side to take control, with Stacks’ 20th minute goal proving a key score. We responded well through points from Alex Hennigan and Cian McMahon to stay in touch at the break, trailing 0:04 to 1:09. Stacks came out strongin the second half, scoring a point and two 2-pointers within the first 3 minutes of play. We resopinded well, kicking 3 points without reply but a stacks goal in the 10th minute proved crucial and halting our momentum. Stacks capitalised to push ahead again and maintained their advantage in the closing stages. Despite a determined effort, we were left to question missed opportunities as the Tralee side held on for the win. We now face Spa on April 26th at 2pm in Dr. Crokes Park
U14 East Kerry League
We played Kilcummin last Tuesday night and after a hard fought battle we unluckily went down by 5 points in the end. We opened brightly with Sean Quill bagging a hat trick of goals in the first half to help us lead by 3- 7 to 2- 6 at half time. At the back Rob Young, Adam Arthur, Andrew Blokhvost and Thomas Mulvihill defended valiantly with Evan & Senan Prendergast winning lots of possession in midfield. We led going into the final 10 minutes but couldn’t hold out as Kilcummin dominated the latter stages to defeat us by 5 points in the end having got 3 goals to our 1 which was excellently taken by Wojtek Zglinski.
Our B team had 2 great games against Listowel and Kilcummin also over the past fortnight and having led in both games going into the last 5 minutes lost both games by a point in both. This a young team with a lot of the boys underage again next year with quite a few under 12s also playing. Both teams have shown great improvement since the start of the competition and hopefully we can get positive results.
