CROI... TRALEES NEWEST RESTAURANT IN THE SQUARE! Chris Shortt from The Tralee Advertiser caught up with Noel Keane from the recently just opened Restaurant Croi in the Square , Tralee and asked him what have the first few weeks since they opened been like ? “ Says Noel ....”Well its been a crazy few weeks , from the lead up , as we totally revamped the restaurant , from the interior lighting to the colours used , also we feel we have given a different layout and style to the place . We like to think we have put our own stamp on things !

We are aiming for a ‘smart casual ‘vibe.

Myself(Noel) Paul & Kevin have the same thoughts and ethos about food , So it is all locally sourced from small producers, around Tralee & Kerry. Paul grows all our salads leaves...I grow the herbs and we forage wild foods around the fantastic forests nearby as well as our superb seashores.

The response has been great so far from the public,they really have embraced us . Thank God its been busy and hopefully it will continue to grow !”

I left work early because my grandmother fell ill suddenly. Can I take a half-day as force majeure leave?

Answer

If you are absent for only part of a day on grounds of force majeure, it may still be counted as a full day of force majeure leave.

If you have a family crisis, the Parental Leave Acts 1998 and 2006 give an employee a limited right to leave from work. Force majeure leave is paid leave that is granted to an employee and it arises where, for urgent family reasons, the immediate presence of the employee is indispensable owing to the injury or illness of a close family member. In general it should not be leave that an employee could plan for. You can obtain force majeure leave in relation to the illness or injury of: • Your natural or adopted child (or a child you are acting in loco parentis for) • Your spouse or partner (provided you are living together) • Your brother or sister • Your parent or grandparent • Another person who resides with you in a relationship of domestic dependency You are entitled to up to three days of force majeure leave in any 12-month period or five days in any 36-month period.

If you are taking force majeure leave, you must notify your employer as soon as possible and make an application in writing as soon as you return to work.

This must include the date of the leave, the reasons it was necessary and your relationship to the injured or ill person. The notice must also be signed by you as the employee.

You are protected against unfair dismissal for taking force majeure leave or for proposing to take it. If you have a dispute regarding force majeure leave, you should make a complaint to the Workplace Relations Commission within six months of the dispute. The time limit may be extended for up to a further six months if there is a substantial cause that prevents the complaint being brought within the normal time limit.

SIAMSA THIRD YEAR GRADUATES SHOWCASE ‘THE LITTLE BIRD’

Siamsa Tíre is proud to present its Level 3 Final Year pupils of the National Folk Theatre (NFT) Training Academy in their end of year graduation show on Monday 22nd May at 6.30pm. This performance showcases what the students have learned over the previous three years at Siamsa Tíre in the disciplines of traditional Irish singing, the Munnix style of traditional Irish step dancing, drama and music. There are sixteen Level 3 Final Year pupils this year, with two focusing on traditional music and the remainder focusing on the other principles of song, dance and drama.

The theme for each final year show is different reflecting the varied and diverse interpretations by the students.

When devising this year’s show, the pupils began with the word Folk and discussed what it meant to them.

Through this dialogue, the final year pupils worked together to agree a theme and then helped to build a performance around this choosing

music, songs and dance to compliment this theme. This year’s show is an adaptation of T Crofton Croker’s Tale, “The Story of the Little Bird”.

The National Folk Theatre Training Academy is aimed at young people from the age of 7 to 12. Auditions take place annually with the 2017/2018 auditions taking place on Friday 16th June from 6-8pm at Teach Siamsa na Carraige, Dingle and on Saturday 17th June from 10am – 2pm at Siamsa Tíre, Tralee.

Applicants must have a song and an Irish dance piece prepared for their audition and need to demonstrate some previous interest in Irish music and/or dance, as this training is not for complete beginners.

Auditions are by appointment only. Successful candidates take classes weekly in Siamsa Tíre for a period of three years from October to May. A fee per terms applies.

“We are very proud of all of our third year students within the Training Academy and have enjoyed working with them over the last three

years. They have shown great commitment to the traditional arts and have been very creative in interpreting what folk means to them in this year’s show. It promises to be a great evening’s entertainment for family, friends and anyone interested in traditional Irish culture!”, said Anne O’Donnell, Training & Development Officer, The National Folk Theatre of Ireland.

The strength of Siamsa Tíre’s performing company lies in the extended Community Cast who have trained and

performed with the company over more than forty years.

The National Folk Theatre Community Cast of performers complete a minimum of three years of training with the company before going on to an advanced training class as part of their performance preparation. Students who have completed the training offered by Siamsa Tíre have gone on to achieve national and international success as performers, including John Fitzgerald, Suzie Griffin, Sarah Jane Drummey, Justin Walsh and Paula Murrihy.

GET YOUR MOTORS RUNNING FOR IRELAND BIKEFEST June 2nd to 5th 2017 We just can’t wait to get on the road again for Ireland BikeFest 2017 which rumbles into Killarney across the June Bank Holiday weekend.

Now in its eleventh year, Ireland BikeFest is an actionpacked, three-day festival that attracts motorcyclists in their tens of thousands from all over the world to the Kingdom.

The fantastic scenery, touring routes, hospitality and free entertainment make it one of the must attend festivals of the year.

Highlights for 2017 include daily ride outs along the Southwest section of the the Wild Atlantic Way - marshalled

by Celtic Thunder Chapter Ireland and Gaelic Chapter Ireland, free Harley-Davidson® demo rides, Waterford and Dublin Harley-Davidson® Dealers, H.O.G.® Hospitality & Info, Jumpstart, Novelty Dog Show, the Custom Bike Show, Parade and lots of free live indoor and outdoor entertainment day and night.

This year’s line-up of entertainment is epic and with free entry to all Ireland BikeFest gigs there’s simply no excuse not to go! Three days, three stages and tons of free live music - there’s the Outdoor Stage located at the heart of the Bike Village, the favourite bikers’ haunt in The Harley Bar and the Main Stage in the INEC where you can rock on late into the night.

This year’s line-up includes Crow Black Chicken, the Led Zepplin tribute - No Stairway, Bowtie, The Cardinal Sins, Knights of Leon, JoanovArc, Dep Leppard, The Chapel Hill Gang, the Johnny Cash Tribute - Get Rhythm, Live Lizzy and festival legends Hells Bells.

Located on the grounds of The Gleneagle Hotel, the Bike Village is the main hub of activity throughout the weekend, featuring retail stands and traders, merchandise, motorcycle rentals, kids zone and the Harley-Davidson® Experiential area. The Village offers plenty

of places to eat, grab a drink at the popular Harley Bar, or simply sit and listen to the live bands and DJ’s perform over the course of the weekend.

And if you are not a biker don’t worry! Ireland BikeFest Killarney also welcomes visitors and families who just want to experience the Bike Village, have fun and enjoy the free live entertainment.

You do not even have to own a bike; you can just bask in the glory of some slick, well-built machines and enjoy the unique party and festival atmosphere of Ireland BikeFest. You may even win your own motorcycle in the Win a Harley-Davidson® Raffle in aid of Muscular Dystrophy Ireland.

HEALTHY RECIPES for 2017

FAST FISH DISHES!

So the pressure was on this week, with the opening of our CROI restaurant in the Square.Tralee .

Dinner was always going to be a rush so I went for some quick yet delicious fish dishes . Here are two that really tasted good!

GRILLED SEABASS WITH INDIAN-SPICED TOMATO SALAD

INGREDIENTS • • • • • • • • • • • • •

1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns 1 tablespoon coriander seeds 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1/4 cup chopped basil 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar 1 medium shallot, minced 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger 1/2 teaspoon sugar 2 pounds assorted vine tomatoes, cut into 1-inch dice Salt 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary Four 6-ounce wild seabass fillets, with skin on Freshly ground pepper

METHOD

In a small pan, toast the peppercorns and coriander seeds over moderately high heat until fragrant, 30 seconds. Transfer to a spice grinder and let cool completely. Grind the peppercorns and coriander to a powder. In a large bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the olive oil with the ground spices, basil, vinegar, shallot, ginger and sugar. Add the tomatoes and toss to coat with the dressing. Season the tomatoes with salt. Light a grill or heat a grill pan. In a shallow baking dish, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the rosemary. Season the bass with salt and pepper and coat the fillets with the rosemary oil. Grill the bass over moderately high heat, skin side down, until nicely charred and crisp on the bottom, 3 minutes. Turn the bass and cook until just opaque in the center, 3 minutes longer. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatoes to plates. Set the bass fillets on the tomato salad. Spoon the tomato dressing over and around the fish and serve.

Turn the fillets and cook until the skin is crisp, about 1 minute. Transfer the trout fillets to a large rimmed baking sheet, ham side up. Cook the remaining fillets in 1 more tablespoon of olive oil and transfer to the baking sheet. Keep the fish warm in the oven. In the pan, heat the remaining 1/4 cup of olive oil.

Hello my beautiful friends, I hope you’re all having a fantastic week!

This week, I wanted to talk about something a little different. I wanted to talk about choosing a Makeup Artist for your wedding/a big event.

There are lots of different Makeup Artists out there and choosing the right one for you and your style is very important, especially if it’s an important event or a wedding.

Pictures last forever and you don’t want to end up spending time and money only to end up disappointed.

DO RESEARCH First and foremost, look up a few Makeup Artists in your area. Look at their work, look at their qualifications and look and their experience. If you know someone who got their makeup done by that Makeup Artist, message them, ask how they got on. Everyone has different tastes in makeup so make sure that if you like dramatic makeup the artist can do that or if you’re more on the natural side make sure they can do that.

QUALITY OVER QUANTITY The Makeup Artist you’re choosing is a professional. He/She has a craft and should charge according to their experience and training. If you’re looking for the cheapest person for the job, they mightn’t necessarily be the best, and the same goes for the most expensive. If it’s your wedding, I recommend not to skimp on your Makeup Artist, it’s one day, pay a bit extra for better quality.

On another note, just because a Makeup Artist uses expensive high end brands, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they’re good. I have both high end and drugstore brands in my kit, I just use what works best, not what looks good in the kit.

how the makeup stays on.

KNOW WHAT YOU WANT TELL THE MAKEUP ARTIST WHAT YOU WANT. There is absolutely no point telling her “do what you think is best”. There are SO many different looks and styles of makeup, how on earth is he/she supposed to know how you like to look? If you want a purple smokey eye. If you don’t like heavy coverage or strong contouring.

If you only wear liquid eyeliner. Just tell him/her! Your Makeup Artist is not a mind reader, if she has no guide on what you want she won’t be able to do her job to the best of their ability.

LISTEN TO HIS/HER OPINION/ SUGGESTIONS They’re the professional after all, well I hope. If you go in with a picture of Kim Kardashian but are pale with blonde hair and blue eyes, you will not look like Kim Kardashian. If you want a really detailed cut crease eyeshadow look but have hooded eyes, your Makeup Artist should recommend a different style because detailed cut creases don’t show up on hooded eyes, but, if that’s what you want, they should do it. What I’m saying is, your Makeup Artist will be a master at their craft, they should have spent time studying face and eye shapes, they should know what works for your skin type and colouring, hair colour, eye colour and face shape.

They should take into account your face and what would enhance your already beautiful features and should recommend what they think will work best. If you trust their opinion listen to them.

If they turn you into a clone of every other client they have ever done, you know not to return.

Lots more exciting news to follow.

Stay tuned!

Stay fab, stay glam.

Keep up with me on any social media, Instagram, Snapchat or Facebook @ bexblah!

HAVE A TRIAL If it’s a wedding day or even a debs or graduation, if you’re anyway unsure, have a trial! That way you can see how the Makeup Artist works and 24

FITNESS!

HELLO EVERYONE! I HOPE YOU’RE ALL HAVING A GREAT WEEK! I know every week I talk about how it’s great to be fit and healthy with regards to your physical body... And it is, in a perfect world. But this week I’m going to focus on another aspect of your health that it’s important to take care of, your mental health and being happy in yourself. Especially at this time of year, there is huge focus on looking your best as we’re coming into summer. Things like “6 week summer body” and “4 week bikini blast” have started to appear on magazine covers.

YOU ALREADY HAVE A BIKINI BODY. EVERYONE DOES. JUST PUT ON A BIKINI! The next time you find yourself scrutinising something that you think is “wrong” with your body. Maybe focus on the person and soul inside your body, other than asthetics. Being a size 6 or 16 doesn’t determine who you are as a person.

Like everyone, I’m not happy 24/7.

I have struggled with body issues, image issues and everything in between. I have finished school only to come out of two separate college courses, because I wasn’t happy in either of them, so unhappy that I let it affect my mental health. I have good and bad days, just like everyone else.

Most of the time I try to stay positive, a positive mindset always helps.

When you are stuck in something in life that makes you that unhappy, be it a job, living situation, college course, or relationship, it is always best to take a step back and put you and your mental health first. Because if you don’t, trust me, nobody else is going to do it for you.

Talk about it. It doesn’t matter to who, just let someone else know how you’re feeling. You never know they might have the perfect solution, or at least they might make you feel a bit better.

Exercise, even if it’s just going for a walk. It helps clear your head and overall you’ll feel better.

If you are upset about anything, don’t try hide it or play it down because of someone else’s opinions. It’s your life and if something is upsetting you, it’s ok to be upset. Once you know ways in which you can cheer yourself up again.

a situation, remember, no one has all the answers. Not even the most intelligent successful person you know. Everyone just takes it one day at a time.

So don’t feel anxious or pressured into doing anything if you feel it’s not for you.

It’s your life, make a conscious decision to be the happiest, most positive person you can be.

Try not to sweat the small stuff!

For any of you out there feeling overwhelmed because you don’t know what to do with your life or you can’t pick a college course or you’re confused as to what to do by

MAN TROUBLE Is osteoporosis a concern for men?

A good balance between Osteoporosis is a disease that causes the skeleton to weaken and increases the risk of the bones to supple joints, st rong bones and fracture or break. It is seen less often in men because of their larger skeletons and the fact that they flexible muscles don’t go through the menopause which causes rapid hormone changes and bone loss in women. is important for maintaining mob Some men have an increased risk as the life expectancy for men rises. Risk factors include age, low ility through all levels of testosterone, excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, and lack of exercise. stages of life.

Bearing all of this in mind it is important to maintain your bone health. Thankfully nowadays there are a large range of products available to achieve this. Some of these products include Calcium, Magnesium, Vitamin D, Zinc, and Boron – all of which are available in tablet form, so no excuses!

There are some excellent bone formulas available also such as NHP OSTEO support, which includes all of the above in one capsule.

We are always available in store to discuss your specific needs and discuss what products meet your requirements.

Apparently the life expectancy between men and women has decreased; however, women are still living on average 5 years longer than men. We know that men may face unique health challenges at an earlier age than women and may be slower to seek medical advice (which is never a good idea!) bearing this in mind you can help take control of your bone health by embracing some of the following changes: • Maintain a healthy weight • Manage your stress levels • Eat a healthy balanced diet • Limit alcohol intake (as well as the obvious reasons for cutting down, alcohol may also increase your blood pressure).

Making these few life style changes can have a massive positive influence on your overall health.

Until next time, stay healthy.

NO TIME FOR EXERCISE! When you have a bazillion things on your “to do” list, it’s easy to write off your workout. And while you might not sweat it you should!

Research shows that exercise can boost your productivity, fend off weight gain and alleviate stress when life gets frantic. We are all aware of the benefits of exercise to cardiovascular health, bone strength, blood pressure and sleep. But, you may not be aware that exercise balances neurotransmitters and other

chemicals in the brain. These substances influence brain activity related to mood, attention, motivation and arousal. That’s why you’re more likely to feel calmer, more alert and more focused after exercise.

New research shows that only a quarter of workers in Ireland (26%) take the recommended level of exercise for a healthy lifestyle each week. (30 mins x 5 times per week). And as a nation we know we all need to get healthier.

LAUGHTER ....THE BEST MEDICINE !

IN THE WOODS

A blonde, a brunette, and a redhead were walking through the woods one night when they happened upon some tracks.

“I think they’re moose tracks!”, said the blonde.

“No, they’re deer tracks!”, said the brunette.

“Nuh uh, these are elk tracks!”, chirped the redhead. ...they were still arguing about it when the train hit them.

A MAN ASKS A FARMER NEAR A FIELD,

The farmer says, “Sure, go right ahead. And if my bull sees you, you’ll even catch the 4:11 one.”

SO THREE OLD MEN MET ON A SUNDAY MORNING...

“Sixty is the worst age to be,” said the 60-year-old man. “You always feel like you have to pee and most of the time you stand there and nothing comes out.”

“Ah, that’s nothin,” said the 70-year-old. “When you’re seventy, you don’t have a bowel movement any more. You take laxatives, eat bran, sit on the toilet all day and nothin’ comes out!”

“Actually,” said the 80-year -old, “Eighty is the worst age of all.”

“Do you have trouble peeing, too?” asked the 60-year old.

“No, I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a racehorse on a flat rock: no problem at all.”

“So, do you have a problem with your bowel movement?”

“No, I have one every morning at 6:30.”

Exasperated, the 60-year-old said, “You pee every morning at 6:00 and crap every morning at 6:30. So what’s so bad about being 80?”

“I don’t wake up until 7:00.”

TALKING SPORT WITH THE TRALEE ADVERTISER these teams playing during the summer in the good weather. That debate goes on in many sports.

with “The Voice” Pat Harnett

FAI NATIONAl P.R.O. OF THE YEAR THE GOOD, THE GOODISH AND THE BAD: KERRY CAMOGIE CROWNED MUNSTER JUNIOR CHAMPIONS: Once again there were plenty of good sports stories this week but the outstanding one was certainly the Kerry Camogie players win in the Munster Junior final. Having already defeated Waterville the previous weekend Kerry saw off Cork in the final by 0-14 points to 1-10 in an extra time thriller. At the game in Killeedy, Co Limerick was Diarmuid Kearney and here is his report of the game. As I wasn’t there I think this win deserves an eye witness account!

Diarmuid writes that it was Cork that got off to the better start registering the first two scores.

Kerry were finding the scores tough early on coming up against a resilient Cork defence but Patrice Diggin would again make herself heard as she reduced the deficit.

With roughly 12 minutes played the next score would come this time from a Cork free.

Kerry began to launch a counter attack of their own and found themselves ahead on the 15th minute mark as first captain Aoife Behan pointing from play and then Patrice Diggin knocking over a free.

Kerry were finding themselves in the driving seat as with 26 minutes played as they lead 0-8 to 0-3 with Patrice Diggin managing another 4 scores. Kerry’s Sara Murphy then saved a Cork penalty on the line late in the half.

Kerry’s 3 point lead was reduced to 1 early in the second half and then they took the lead as Kerry keeper Alannah Maunsell just failed to keep out a dipping Michelle Breen shot. However a Patrice Diggin showed why she was the Littlewoods Division 3 Player of the League as she landed a monster points from 65 yards just as Kerry heads were beginning to drop. The same player put Kerry ahead deep into injury time before they survived a big scare as first Michelle Browne drilled a shot toward goal that the ref decided to call back with most people saying the ball had crossed the line, eventually the ref gave Cork a free shortly after and Christine O’Neill sent the game into Extra Time with

40

TRALEE ADVERTISER

the sides tied at 1-09 to 0-12.

Both sides were fighting for every ball and were putting their bodies on the line to stop the opposition scoring and it took 8 minutes for Diggin to land the first score of extra time before Cork drew level again. The game was on the line and it was Diggin who landed the vital score while Maunsell was heroic in the Kerry goal to deny Cork and when the referee blew the final whistle Kerry, to the delight of the whole squad, management and supporters, were crowned Munster Junior Camogie Champions with Patrice Diggin ending with 13 of Kerry’s 14 points! This is a wonderful achievement for this group of girls and for the sport in general.

DOUBLE 17’S WIN FOR KERRY: It was a good week to be a 17 year old playing for Kerry as the footballers and the soccer players both recorded big wins. First up were the Kerry 17’s who had their biggest win in the SSE Airtricity League as they defeated Limerick 5-1 to make it 7 points from their last 3 League games. Indeed the 6 goals in the game came from Kerry players as the visitors goals was scored by Tralee’s Dara Lowth to put Limerick 1-0 up. Kerry hit back with goals from James Rusk, Dillon Robinson 2, Martin Coughlan and John Hayes. Kerry are away to Wexford Youths this Saturday and have games in hand on the sides around them which if they won could see them move into the top 5 – huge progress for this squad and management.

The Kerry u17’s footballers saw off the ‘Ould Enemy’ Cork in this new, and more than likely once off competition, to win the Munster title. This competition was introduced this season to cater for player who would lose out on playing minor next year as the age is reduced to 17. One question however is why are players on this year’s minor squad who qualify by age on the u17 team. Surely one competition would be enough for them and it would have 3 or 4 more players selected for Kerry?

Back to the game and while the visitors to Austin Stacks Park that got the better start Kerry gradually grew into the game and were ahead

Friday 19th May 2017

8 points to 6 at the break in a game that threatened to boil over and there were incidents in the tunnel at half time.

Despite Cork’s best efforts Kerry were in control for much of the second half and in the end ran out winners by 5 points 0-15 to 0-10 and will now go on to meet the Connaught winner in an All- Ireland semi- final on the August weekend with the final set for August 20th.

Sadly this is where the bad comes in as there was another big scuffle at the end of the game. As I wasn’t there it would not be fair to comment further bar saying a number of report accuse Cork as the aggressors but this will go to the Munster Council for investigation. This was probably born out of a little frustration as Kerry certainly have the Indian sign over Cork at the moment completing a clean sweep while for the majority of the defeated team it means their next chance to play for Cork will be at u20’s – a bit away.

KERRY LADIES GO DOWN TO WATERFORD: It certainly was not a good weekend for the Kerry Ladies team as they went down 2-9 to 1-9 in the Munster Championship in what was certainly a shock. Indeed Kerr’s goal came with almost the last kick of the game so the score-line could have looked worse. Kerry can get their Munster aspirations back on track if the can defeat Cork but that’s no easy task as we all know.

KERRY HURLERS LOSE BUT ARE NOT DOWN: It was a case of an acceptable loss for the Kerry hurlers if there is such a thing as their 2-21 to 3-15 loss to Laois, who topped the Group, saw them finish 3rd in the Leinster SHC Round Robin competition and survive the drop to the Christy Ring. In the end Meath went down on scoring difference having a 4 point worse record than Kerry while Westmeath, also on 2 points were 4 points better than Kerry – narrow margins indeed.

Again the GAA hurling fixtures have drawn ire from some involved as the both Kerry and Meath will now not play county hurling till next February when many want

THE GARVEY’S CHAMPIONSHIP REVIEW – FOR TRALEE SIDES: Austin Stacks were a little surprisingly held to a draw in Connolly Park and so must meet St Kieran’s again this weekend.

The replay is on in Scartaglin on Saturday at 6.30pm. St Kieran’s are one the District sides that are always competitive and will take a lot from last weekend’s draw.

However The Rockies won’t want to lose out this early and will be hoping that Kieran Donaghy can play a bigger part in the game.

Should Stacks win they will face a trip to West Kerry.

Kerins O’Rahillys will have had a happy week after getting past South Kerry to end what had been a difficult time for the club. The Tralee side were in trouble early on in the game but showed great resilience and belief to take control and come through. Their reward is a tough away draw versus Dingle this Sunday at 2.30pm. Dingle defeated Kenmare District as expected and will be favourites to make it two from two in the Championship.

PARNELL’S NEWS: On Friday it was first the turn of the Camogie under 16s and under 14s who had a treat of a pizza night followed by ice cream in the environs of the Small Square. The girls were celebrating achievements including winning their divisions of the under 14 and under 12 county league at the end of last season. Later on the same evening it was the turn of our under 14 boys celebrating their recent breakthrough that will see a Parnells team for the first time ever, competing in national Féile in June. So, a very well deserved treat night for both sets of players and thanks to Carmel for all her work on this initiative.

Well Done U14 Hurlers: Good result for our U14 boys on the 11th in the County League against Abbeydorney in Caherslee winning 4-06 to 1-01.

Hurling Skills Competition: Congratulations to Parnells U12 player Andrew Kerins who qualified for the primary schools County Final of the Kerry Hurling Skills Competition Kerry U17 Hurlers: Well done to the Kerry U17 hurlers who bounced back from a disappointing result last time out to defeat West Limerick in the Celtic Challenge.

TALKING SPORT WITH THE TRALEE ADVERTISER coming later in the evening.

BALLYMAC NEWS: The Ballymac u12 girls were crowned North Kerry Division 3 League Champions which was a great achievement for a squad made up of mostly u11 players.

They were unbeaten in all 7 rounds and the win over Austin Stack confirmed them as champions.

The Ballymac girls took over in the second half winning 4-04 to 0-07 and captain Rachel Griffin was presented with the Cup by Frank McLoughlin of the North Kerry’s Ladies Board. The girls will now focus on the upcoming County League.

The Senior Ladies were 4-07 to 2-07 winners over St Pats in their first home game of the season.

The visitors led 2-07 to 1-03 at half time but Ballymac took over in the second half holding their opponents scoreless while adding 3-04 themselves.

In the u14 Coiste na Nog Ballymac went down to Austin Stacks 3-17 to 4-07. The Stacks got a great start and hit 1-12 in the opening 20 minutes. They will need to put this behind them as they face table toppers Laune Rangers this week in the Division 1 County League semifinal in Killorglin.

Under 8’s: Well done to all our u8 boys who participated in the Go Games held in Desmonds last week.

NEWS FROM THE CREASE: Kerry got their 2017 Irish National Cup campaign off to a perfect start as the home side hit 255 runs.

Khuram with 106 and Azeem on 48 were the Kerry heroes. They then got the Roscommon side Ballaghdereen out for only 69 to win by 186 runs. This follows up a good win over Cork County so the team’s confidence is high going into the rest of the season.

North Kerry has recorded the highest total in their brief history at Cork County in a Division 3 cricket match. County batted first and posted 261 for 3 (McDowell 97 not out and Younus 8) helped by some non –existent North Kerry catching as seven were dropped.

In reply North Kerry showed spirit and captain Gary Pickett (56) and Godwin Jepadas (36) took North Kerry to 200 for 9 so despite a 81 run defeat there were at least some positives on the batting front.

In the Munster Division 2 match at Curragheen Road the Kerry 3rds were bowled out for 177 losing by 67 wickets to UCC who finished on 179 for 4 off 37 overs.

ON THE GREENS: Tralee bowed out of the Jimmy Bruen in the Section final going down to Newcastlewest. In the Ladies game Tralee went out of the Challenge Cup going down to Killorglin while in the Minor Cup that result was reversed with Tralee winning. Tralee are out of the Junior Cup as they lost out to Ballybunion.

On Tralee’s Greens Richard Rafferty took the Intermediate Scratch Cup with 81 Gross followed by Brian Monaghan and Shane O’Sullivan.

In The May Singles Kieran Donaghy was the winner with 39 points just seeing off Sean O’Keeffe who hit 37 points, the same score as third placed Michael Brosnan. The 9 Hole competition was won by Adrian O’Gara.

The Ladies had a fourball in midweek and the winners were Mary Savage and Brid Halloran from Catherine McCarthy and Maura Shanahan. The Ladies 18 hole singles stableford went to Margaret Hayes with Noreen Shanahan second.
