Many people have unsightly dark spaces between otherwise healthy teeth but don’t know how to improve their appearance. We don’t believe in harming good teeth by drilling them down for crowns and veneers and all treatment provided is guided by our policy of minimal invasion. The Bioclear matrix technique allows us to painlessly and seamlessly blend tooth coloured material into your teeth to close unsightly gaps and restore an even, healthy smile WITHOUT removing any healthy tooth structure. This unique technique will not cause food traps or cleaning problems afterwards.The system is durable, reliable and delivers beautiful results for a fraction of the cost of crowns and veneers. Remember, once healthy tooth is drilled away, it can never be replaced so always consider the least invasive option for your smile makeover to ensure that you retain beautiful, healthy teeth for life.

Cerec - Digital dentistry Tooth conservation guides our treatment philosophy and our computer aided design scanners also allow us to repair badly broken down teeth using beautiful ceramic materials that replace what is lost, like the missing piece of a jigsaw, rather than drilling the whole tooth down as one would for a crown.

ATLANTIC From the maker of The Pipe, narrated by Brendan Gleeson.

Atlantic follows the fortunes of three small fishing communities as they struggle to maintain their way of life.

As the oil majors drive deeper into their fragile seas, and the world’s largest fishing companies push fish stocks to the brink, coastal people and the species they rely on may be reaching a point of no return. ***‘Entertaining, informative and essential’ The Irish Times Director Risteard O Domhnaill will attend the screening.

This landmark in their development confirms Tralee Credit Union’s position as one of the largest community based credit unions in the country. Speaking to CEO, Fintan Ryan, “Assets worth €200 Million is a significant achievement for Tralee Credit Union. It’s all down to members loyalty and support, it underlines the trust our members have in their credit union to manage their affairs with confidence and provides security into the future. €200 Million is a far cry from our humble beginnings of £50 when we opened in 1968, today we have 42,000 members, with branch offices in Tralee, Castleisland and Killorglin employing over 50 staff within the community. It’s been a very good year for Tralee Credit Union so it’s actually treble celebrations, we have just completed our year end last month and this year over 9,000 members borrowed over €34 million from Tralee Credit Union representing our largest amount ever lent out in a financial year. €34 million reflects the increase in consumer confidence, an increase in people borrowing with Tralee Credit Union and the increase in what we contribute to the local economy as most of €34 million we lent is spent locally helping to sustain growth and employment. For anyone who needs a loan, talk to us in Tralee Credit Union, we have money to lend and we are lending” If you are out and about in Tralee, Castleisland and Killorglin today call in to Tralee Credit Union for a cuppa, cake, prizes we’ve lots happening today.

The Scotia Ensemble will be bringing Baroque music to Tralee on Sunday the 30th October. The Scotia Ensemble is Kerry’s first and only professional orchestra, set up in January 2016 with the aid of an Arts Act Grant from Kerry County Council.

The musicians in the orchestra are working professional musicians based in Kerry, but who perform all around the country and internationally. Members of the Scotia Ensemble have played with orchestras in Ireland, England and the US and have performed in venues all over the world, from the National Concert Hall to Carnegie Hall in New York. Leader, Niamh Varian-Barry and principal Cellist, Maria O’Connor, also perform regularly with the RTE National Symphony Orchestra and The RTE Concert Orchestra. The orchestra also includes three gifted young musicians drawn from the County as part of the orchestra’s gifted students mentoring programme. Having had a very successful series of concerts in June focussing on Irish music and Irish classical music, for this series of concerts the orchestra have decided to go back in time and to focus exclusively on Baroque music. This concert will feature some of classical music’s greatest and best known composers, namely Bach, Handel, Corelli and Vivaldi. The orchestra will perform some of the all-time favourite works from this era, such as Pachelbel’s Canon, Corelli’s Christmas Concerto, the Albinoni Adagio for Strings and one of Bach’s famous Brandenburg Concertos, as well as a number of famous concerti grossi. Many of the pieces played by the orchestra have featured in countless films, television shows and adverts, and will be familiar to all audiences. The Scotia Ensemble Baroque Series will take place on Sunday the 30th October 2016, at 8pm in St John’s Church of Ireland, Ashe Street.

“We’ve got 24 brilliant dancers who are all eager to get started with their training. I’m sure we can expect great things on the night from this gang” added Anne Marie.

COGHLAN VOICES CONCERN FOR ST. MARY OF THE ANGELS. Leas – Cathaoirleach, Senator Paul Coghlan has called on Minister Finian McGrath to ensure that St Mary of The Angels is exempted from the national “Time to Move On” policy.

Speaking in the Seanad, Senator Coghlan said “St. Mary of the Angels Beaufort provide a world class service to a number of residents in Kerry with special needs. I firmly believe that SOMA should be exempted from the national “Time to Move On” policy and that the HSE cancel the pilot scheme at the site.

“I am calling on Minister McGrath to issue a guarantee that all future decision making on behalf of those 77 residents who cannot decide for themselves, will be done by their parents and families. The Minister should also recognise SMOA as a special community and reinstate funding, allowing for the building of required number of chalets to accommodate the 17 residents in St. Fidelis and St. Brendans. Senator Coghlan stressed that the proposed closure of SMOA and its associated services be reversed immediately, urged more compassionate and humanity b brought to bear on the situation as these people cannot be denigrated that SMOA is both their community.

CHAMBER ALLIANCE SECURES MINIMUM DISRUPTION DURING TOWN CENTRE WATER REPAIRS

Tralee Chamber Alliance met with Kerry County Council on Monday 17 October 2016 to voice the concerns of their members, particularly those on Bridge Street and The Mall, that trade will be disrupted during the upcoming water works which were announced on Thursday 13th October.

At the outset, Kerry County Council apologised for the late notification of the works and they explained that this was caused by other works being completed early allowing them to commence this particular project from this week.

The work will involve the complete replacement of the old cast iron water main which is corroded and leaking and it will result in better quality water as well as brand new pipe work.

The works to be carried out will commence on Wednesday 19th October and finish on 25th November NO WORK will take place on Saturdays There will be NO ROAD CLOSURE at all throughout the work period The work will be split into three sections with each section taking approximately 2 weeks to complete a. Section 1 will go from Russell St to Walsh Brothers Shoes b. Section 2 will go from Walsh Brothers Shoes to Teach Beag c. Section 3 will go from Teach Beag to Heaton’s Pedestrian access will be maintained as best as possible with openings along the work area where safe to do so. There will be some re-routing of footpaths but access along both sides of the street will always be maintained.

The work will take place in the taxi bays / loading bays and parking spaces along the northern side of the road Taxi bays will be affected and they will be relocated elsewhere There will be no water available on three different occasions but only for a period of 3-4 hours on a Sunday morning (advance notice of 3 days will be given)

Tralee Chamber Alliance appreciate that there is never a good time to carry out infrastructural work in a busy town centre, however, it is hoped that following Tralee Chamber Alliance’s intervention the disruption will be kept to a minimum for the duration of the water works.

Spa seafoods Restaurant is set to give customers a special night by going dark on Thursday 10th of November where you will Enjoy 5 courses blind folded for €35 per person. €5 from every dinner goes to NCBI This is a truly unique dining experience, with guests are blind-folded throughout the meal. Without their sight to guide them, they experience taste, texture and flavour in a completely new and innovative way. Dine in the Dark is supported by the Restaurants Association of Ireland and the campaign will see 200 restaurants and 8,000 people #godark for sight loss this November.

Spa Seafoods celebrates Fresh Local Irish Seafood with spectacular views from our restaurant of Tralee Bay “The experience of sitting in a busy restaurant under blindfold is really a one-off.

Sounds and smells are more intense and even communication during the meal is altered. We’re offering customers the chance to really immerse themselves in the dining experience. Under blindfold they will question everything and it’ll really bring the focus to the flavours and textures of the food.” says Kevin Walsh of Spa Seafoods Dine in the Dark aims to raise vital funds for NCBI, which provides life-enhancing services for people with sight loss.

“We at Spa Seafood hope to raise some of these vital funds for children and adults with sight loss. Sight loss affects one in six people in Ireland, Dine in the Dark is our way of bringing people together to raise awareness, vital funds and of course to have fun.” says Brendan Walsh Book your Dine in the Dark experience at Spa Seafoods now by calling our team on 06671 36901 To avoid disappointment as limited Seats are available on the night.

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN TRALEE...

OAKVIEW VILLAGE CHILDCARE WINS NATIONAL AWARD

The excellence of Oakview Village Childcare and Early Years Support Centre were honoured by the winning of Gold and Bronze awards at the prestigious annual National Maternity & Infant Awards. This wonderful achievement was recognised at an allIreland industry gala awards ceremony held in the Royal Marine Hotel in Dún Laoghaire, Co Dublin on Friday October 14th 2016.

The event was hosted by Maura Derrane and Brian Ormond and will be featured on RTE’s Today Show programme.

Following on from previous years awards, this achievement is extra special. On this occasion the Childcare service is a bronze winner in the ‘Best Indoor Learning Environment’ category while the Early Years Support Centre was chosen as the overall winner in the ‘Best in Diversity and Equality’ category. The recognition for excellence in diversity and equality acknowledges the centre’s focus on purposeful deliverance of services to the family through interaction with the child.

In the run up to the awards the standards at Oakview Village Childcare and the innovative nature of the Early Years Support Centre was inspected and commended by national adjudicators Canavan and Byrne (Specialists in the Early Childhood Care and Education Sector).

Commenting on the award, Centre Manager Clódagh Moynihan said ‘This award primarily confirms our commitment to every individual child in our care and to their extended family. This has been a wonderful year for us and we look forward to continuing this standard of excellence in the years to come.

BELFAST REPUBLICANS TO VISIT KERRY TO HONOUR BALLYKISSANE DEAD

Approximately 60 republicans from the Short Strand area of Belfast are to visit Kerry this weekend to honour the three men who lost their lives at Ballykissane pier on Good Friday morning 1916. They include members of Volunteer Charlie Monahans family who drowned alongside his comrades Donal Sheehan and Con Keating. The three day visit will include visits to Caherciveen, Killorglin and Banna Strand. The highlight of the visit will be on Saturday at 4.30pm, at Ballykissane pier in Killorglin where there will be a short ceremony where speakers will include Deputy Martin Ferris, Senator Niall O’Donnghaile, and Cllr Damian Quigg. The group will stay in Killarney for the three day visit where they will be joined by members of Sinn Féin Kerry at a function in the Towers Hotel on Saturday night.

TESCO STORES IN KERRY REDISTRIBUTE 89,000 MEALS TO LOCAL CHARITIES AND SUPPORT GROUPS

Local charities and groups across Kerry have received almost 80,000 meals to date from Tesco Ireland through their surplus food donations programme run in partnership with Irish social enterprise, FoodCloud. A wide range of Kerry based organisations including ADAPT Kerry Women’s Refuge & Support Services, Tralee Soup Kitchen, and Killorglin Family Resource Centre Ltd have benefited from the redistribution of over 40,000 kgs (or 89,000 meals) of surplus food from Tesco stores across Kerry since 2014. Nationally, Tesco’s innovative surplus food donations programme has redistributed over two million meals to 195 charities since its launch in July 2014. This equates to over 20,000 meals distributed to charities and groups every week. At present 109 of Tesco’s 148 Irish stores (73%) support local good causes with surplus food donations, with the retailer planning to introduce their programme into all of its Irish stores by the end of 2016. With 2 million meals redistributed to date, equating to 1000 tonnes of food, Tesco is encouraging more charities across Ireland to sign up and take part in this initiative.

Speaking about the initiative, Niobe Barry, Area Community Champion for Tesco in Kerry said: “My day to day role involves working with the charities and FoodCloud to ensure our partners are receiving food which works for them. I have seen the impact that this initiative has on these organisations and I am delighted to play a role. I would encourage any charity to get involved in FoodCloud”.

IT’S ONLY A JOKE A LADY GOES TO HER PRIEST ONE DAY AND CONFESSES,...

Father, I have a problem. I have two female parrots, but they only know how to say one thing.” What do they say?” the priest inquires curiously. The woman blushes as she explains that the two female birds repeat the same phrase over and over: “Hi, we’re ladies of the night . Do you want to have some fun?” That’s obscene!” the priest exclaims. After a few moments of deliberation, however, he offers a solution. “You know,” he says, “I have two male parrots, very devout birds, whom I have taught to pray and read the Bible. Bring your female parrots to my house, and we’ll put them in the cage with Francis and Job. My parrots can teach your parrots to praise and worship and speak in a more appropriate manner.”

“Thank you,” the woman responds, “this may very well be the solution.” The next day, she brings her two female parrots to the priest’s house. As he ushers her in, she sees his two male parrots inside their cage, holding Rosary beads and praying. Impressed, she walks over and places her parrots in with them. After a few minutes, the female birds cry out in unison: “Hi, we’re ladies of the night . Do you want to have some fun?” There is a stunned silence. Finally, one male parrot looks over at the other male parrot and exclaims, “Put the beads away, Francis, our prayers have been answered!”

ONE NIGHT EVE SHOOK ADAM AWAKE AND ASKED HIM “ADAM, ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME?”

poking Adam in the chest.

“EVE” yells Adam, “What are you doing??!?!”

“Counting your ribs” She replied.

3 MEN ARE EACH TALKING PROUDLY OF THEIR SONS...

The first man says “My son is a successful athlete! He makes so much money he just bought his friend a house!”

The second man says “My son is a successful lawyer! He makes so much money he just bought his friend a boat!

The third man says “My son is a successful doctor! He makes so much money he just bought his friend a car!

A fourth man hears their conversation and joins in, mentioning that his son is a male escort . The three men say “You must be so ashamed of him! He must barely make a living at all!”

To which the fourth man replies “He does okay, his boyfriends just bought him a house, a car and a boat!”

I FOUND A WALLET TODAY AND AS A GOOD CHRISTIAN I THOUGHT “WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?” .. so I turned it into wine.

FATHER: WHEN ABE LINCOLN WAS YOUR AGE HE WALKED 9 MILES TO SCHOOL AND DID HOMEWORK BY CANDLELIGHT. Son: When Lincoln was your age he was President.

Adam groggily replied “No, of course not Eve... Go back to sleep!”

About an hour later Eve shook Adam awake again.

“How do I know you aren’t cheating on me?”

Adam said “Look Eve, you are the only woman in the world, made by God from my very own rib.

I love you and I would never cheat on you. Now, please go back to sleep!”

Another hour passes and suddenly Eve begins 18

WHAT’S HAPPENING IN TRALEE...

YOUNG KERRY FOOTBALLER MARK O’CONNOR HEADS TO GEELONG, AUSTRALIA

This week on An Saol ó Dheas on RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta, young Kerry and Dingle footballer Mark O’Connor announced that he would be moving to Australia to play for Geelong Football club.

Mark had met with 5 clubs in Australia earlier this month, and told Helen Ní Shé in the interview about making his final choice: “I’ve made the decision to go to Geelong. It’s a very quiet place, like Dingle, and I was very comfortable there. I was really taken with Geelong ... when I went in there everyone was very friendly, and I felt at home there.”

He said that Geelong was one of the best football teams in Australia, and that had, of course, had an influence on his choice.

“Everyone wants to play with the best teams.”

Mark will be moving over in the next three or four weeks.

“I want to go over as soon as possible. The other players won’t be coming until the end of the month, so I’ll have a few weeks on my own to work on my skills.”

“It will be a different challenge. I’ve been playing football since I was 6 or 7 ... It’s attractive to stay here too (to play football for Kerry), that’s why the decision was so hard ... I want a different experience, and maybe a little bit of travelling, I suppose I was looking for something different.”

Mark said that the Kerry management team wished him all the best, and that they were very happy for him on a personal level.

“They were very happy to hear about it on a personal level, but with their Kerry caps on they weren’t as happy. I thanked them for all their help ... It was a bit mixed I suppose. They were very happy for me personally, but as managers and players they weren’t as happy ...

They (Éamonn Fitzmaurice and Jack O’Connor) didn’t put any pressure on me to stay, they said it was my own decision.”

Mark said that it was a two year contract, and that he would be able to return home at Christmas, and for 2 months when the season finished in September.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: FREE CANCER SCREENING PROGRAMMES

Get your business noticed in Tralee’s favourite Friday read

GREAT NIGHT AS JOHN CLEARY LAUNCHES HIS BOOK “THROUGH THE LENS”

Question My friend has been invited to take part in free cancer screening. I haven’t received an invitation but she says it’s a national free screening programme. How do I take part?

Answer There are free screening programmes to help detect or prevent a number of types of cancer.

BowelScreen, The National Bowel Screening Programme, aims to find bowel cancer at an early stage in people who have no symptoms. It offers free screening every two years to men and women aged 60 to 69. If you are in this age group you can ring BowelScreen on Freephone 1800 45 45 55 to check your details are on the register. If you are on the register you will receive an invitation to take part in the BowelScreen programme.

CervicalCheck,The National Cervical Screening Programme, tests women aged 25 to 60 for changes in the cells of cervix. Early detection and treatment can prevent cervical cancer. If you are aged between 25 and 60 and have never had a CervicalCheck smear test you can simply make an appointment with a GP practice or clinic registered with CervicalCheck. You can find one in your area by visiting cervicalcheck.ie or by calling Freephone 1800 45 45 55. A letter of invitation is not needed to make an appointment and attend for a first test.

BreastCheck, The National Breast Screening Programme, invites women to a free mammogram (x-ray of the breast) every two years. The screening has been available to women aged 50 to 64 but is currently being extended to also include women aged 65 to 69. If you have not received an invitation you can check if you are registered by visiting breastcheck.ie or by calling freephone 1800 45 45 55.

Screening can help prevent or detect cancer at an early stage in people who have no symptoms. If you have any specific concerns or symptoms you should visit your GP (family doctor).

Stress can be a major cause of hormone imbalance so it is important to keep your stress levels in check!

Let’s Talk Menopause

The menopause is simply your body’s way of winding down your fertility and defined as the absence of a period for at least 12 months. During this time it is important to focus your diet on plenty of green leafy vegetables, nuts and seeds, which contain lots of minerals such as calcium and magnesium for bone health. Also include plenty of orange, red and purple fruits (especially berries) that are rich in vitamin C which can help maintain collagen levels and support more mature skin and bone health. With the right diet and nutritional supplements you can start to manage your symptoms rather than let your symptoms manage you!

Along with flushes and night sweats some of the other symptoms that may need attention are mood swings, hair loss or thinning, low energy levels, low libido and of course the bones need to be looked after. Severity of symptoms of course vary from woman to woman but there are some excellent natural remedies available, just a question of finding the right one for u!!!! (With our help of course!)

Some of the more successful remedies we recommend are: • SAGE: may help with hot flushes and night sweats.

• AGNUS CASTUS: This herb is an adaptogenic and has a balancing effect on the body and hormones.

• MENOMIN: This is your all in one peri-menopause and beyond multivitamin helps to regulate hormonal activity, maintain mucous membranes and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue. Simply take 2 capsules daily.

• VALERIAN: has a sedative effect on the body so if disturbed sleep (waking with night sweats) is leaving you feeling drained try taking this. Also useful if anxiety is creeping in.

It is also vitally important to maintain the correct balance of essential vitamins and minerals during this time, such as B VITAMINS, CALCIUM, MAGNESIUM, ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS and VITAMIN C. There are some excellent multivitamin complexes available which have been specially formulated especially for use during and after the menopause, definitely worth checking these out.

There are also some homeopathic remedies available in store which we recommend with very good results so just call in and we will be happy to discuss these with you.

TORQUING CARS! HUSBAND LEAVES A LIST FOR WIFE ON HOW TO DRIVE NEW CAR - INCLUDING AVOIDING KERBS AND ‘EXCESS KNOB-GRABBING’

Scottish dad Scott Wilson asked wife Maria to “Look after me” after her driving had previously led to a number of mishaps A cheeky husband has left a checklist for his accident-prone wife in their new car - warning her against driving up kerbs, ‘excess knob grabbing’ and ignoring warning lights.

Scott Wilson, of Fort William in the Scottish Highlands, placed the note asking to “Look after me” on the dashboard of their Volkswagen Golf for the attention of wife Maria.

The father-of-two has revealed he felt the need to issue the guidance after Maria’s driving had previously led to a number of mishaps - including travelling four miles with a flat tyre and ruining several sets of alloys.

Among his advice was ‘If an amber light comes on - tell husband’ and ‘If a red light comes on f*****g switch me off’.

Scott pleaded with her not to ‘bump up’ kerbs and advised it was petrol, not diesel.

After Maria posted the note on social media, it received hundreds of likes and comments from friends familiar with her dodgy driving.

Maria, 31, said she was not offended by the list - and seemed quite aware of her automotive weaknesses.

“I’m the sort of person who, when they hear a funny noise in the car, turns the radio up and just hopes it goes away,” she said.

“I suppose I’m a bit of a typical woman when it comes to cars. When I see a light I think: ‘Oh that looks pretty’ and then forget about it.’

Scott, 36, a mechanical engineer, said the list was a ‘bit of a running joke really’.

“She’s not a bad driver really but there’s been a few issues with our cars over the years,’ he said.

“I got this new one from the scrapyard for £200 and did it up a bit just as a stop-gap while our other car is being repaired.

“Because Maria takes the kids to school she tends to drive it a bit more and I’d noticed a few problems and that it was often a bit of a mess.

“We’ve been together 15 years so a lot of the points are just in-jokes that go back a long time.

“Luckily she though it was hilarious and didn’t kick off too much. I think a lot of people will relate to some of the points I’ve made.

MUM CLAIMS KWIK FIT MECHANICS TRIED TO CHARGE £360 FOR £11 PUNCTURE BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN

A woman claimed Kwik Fit mechanics tried to charge her £360 for an £11 job because she is female. Susie Henderson took her Renault Clio to one of the garages in Milngavie, Glasgow, after suffering a slow puncture to the driver’s side front tyre.

She claims that half an hour after she dropped the car off, she received a phone call telling her the puncture couldn’t be fixed and all four tyres had to be replaced for £360.

But the mum-of-one took her car to another garage to get a second opinion, which charged her just £11.65 to repair the slow puncture.

Kwik Fit has apologised for the the incident and offered to re-inspect the car to ascertain whether its initial advice was correct. They denied that any customer is ever treated differently because of gender.

Susie, a 32-year-old teacher, said: “I can’t fully express how disgusted I am with the Kwik Fit team.

“I knew I had a slow puncture on the front driver’s side tyre. I asked the team to look at it and repair the puncture if that was possible.

“After about 30 minutes I got a call to say there was a nail in that tyre and it couldn’t be fixed.

“They had also found a tear in one of the rear tyres and the tread in the other was below the legal limit.

“They said because the front passenger tyre is a winter tyre - which actually it’s not, it’s an all seasons tyre - all four would have to be replaced for a cost of £360.

I decided not to go ahead with this, as I wanted to speak to my husband. For the next week or so we kept pumping the tyre up to make sure it was at the right pressure.”

Susie and 36-year-old dentist husband Ross, who have a two-year-old daughter, Olivia, eventually took the car to family firm SMS in Stirling.

Mechanics at the second garage checked all four tyres and charged just £11.65 to fix the slow puncture in the front driver’s tyre.(Daily Mirror) 36

SPONSORED BY RON CONSTRUCTION, BUILDING & CARPENTRY SERVICES ESSENTIAL WIN IN BALLYDUFF: In Coursing’s White Sands Hotel Cup Essential was the big winner producing a great display in the final for the outsider before the competition started.

In the Derby Trial For The Parish took the spoils, Lifelongambition won the Two Course Duffer and Carmac Chaos won the Working Members Stake. The Inter Club Stake was won

by Willing and Able. This weekend the action switches to Abbeydorney for the Horgan Cup meeting. with “The Voice” Pat Harnett

FAI NATIONAl P.R.O. OF THE YEAR THE SAD SIDE OF SPORT:

We all love sport for the entertainment it gives us. While we might not always get the results we want the entertainment comes from cheering on our heroes or for the neutral from seeing special things being done in the sporting arena – whatever the sport is.

And there are teams that grab the imagination of those outside of the various sports diehards.

For example last year in the Premiership Leicester City became everyone’s second favourite team and of course Mayo are the same for fans form 31 other countries when the reach an All- Ireland final. Munster rugby in the 2000’s became that team for many and also for those who would not normally have had a big interest in the oval ball game. Kerry sports fans have been privileged to have the likes of Mick Doyle, Mick Galway and JJ Hanrahan amongst others to cheer on. And of course rugby in Castleisaland, Killarney, Killorglin and Dingle has a long and proud history. So it’s easy to see how that Munster team in those years caught the imagination. For many before that the only games they would see were the 4 Nations (for our younger readers it was 4 before it became 5 and then the 6 nations!!) games on Sports Stadium. What I hear you ask, if you are younger than 25, was Sports Stadium. Well it was 4 hours of sport on Saturday when we only had RTE 1 and 2! Into the 2000’s and rugby went professional and SKY TV brought us dedicated sports channels. And then Munster put together a squad of players that were unique. We followed them, either in person or from the couch and willed them on to the Holy Grail – the Heineken Cup. The fact that they came close on a number of occasions made them even closer to our hearts. And on that special day in the Millennium Stadium in 2006 we all cheered when they got over the line. It was fitting that it was Anthony Foley that lifted the trophy – a man with rugby in the blood. From his father Brendan who was on that famous team that beat the All Blacks in Thomand Park in front of over 250,000 if you believe everyone who says they were there. His sister is also deeply involved in the game. And Anthony earned that moment on top of the rugby world. He started in schools, then onto Shannon and Munster and of course a great career with Ireland. But if you

38

TRALEE ADVERTISER

could ask him – which we can never do now that he has been taken so young – he would say that Munster was the most important to him.

Having finished playing he moved to coaching which was the perfect outlet for his rugby brain. He had so much to pass on to the next generations. And now we mourn his passing and as this edition hits the shops his funeral will be taking place. The announcement of his death, at only 42, will stay with us forever. We will always remember where we were when we heard it. I was listening to the County Championships on Radio Kerry in my car when Joe O’Mahoney cut in from the studio with the breaking news. It was so sudden and shocking and you could hear the shock in Gary O’Sullivan’s voice – credit to him for carrying on after a minute to take in the sad news. Men who have been through so much could not handle it – Alan Quinlan was in the Sky studios for Ulster’s match but had to leave when he heard, Tony Ward was almost in tears on RTE when he was asked to remember Anthony. These are just two of the high profile sports persons who struggled with the news.

But Anthony’s death hit more than just those with a high profile, his down to earth mentality made him a ‘man of the people’ even if that is a title he would not have liked.

Any death at such a young age is indescribably tragic and for his family to have it happen in a foreign country is even harder. But for them that part is over as he is home and is being laid to rest surrounded by his beloved family, rugby family and extended family of fans.

His legacy will live on and continue to inspire future generations of rugby and sports players – you can get to the top yet still remain down to earth. Anthony ‘Axel’ Foley – May the Munster Sod Rest Gently on your Soul. You will never be forgotten in the story of Munster rugby and Munster sport in general.

SPORT CONTINUES: Sport always continues and in rugby Tralee suffered a disappointing loss in the Junior Challenge Shield. They were defeated away to Crosshaven 22-3. Darragh O’Neill got Tralee’s only score. In the J2 Tralee are away to Kinsale this weekend.

A DOG’S LIFE: FRIDAY NIGHTS THE BIG NIGHT AT THE TRACK: This Friday night at the Kingdom Greyhound Stadium it is the semi-finals of the Kellihers Toyota Garage A1 525 yards plus the semi-finals of the Kingdom Greyhound Stadium Supporters Club A3 525 yards.

The course is taking entries for the An Ghaelacht GAA A8 525 yards starting on Friday November 4th and the Red Mills Open Unraced Bitch Stake starting on Friday November 11th.

Please note there will be no racing at the Stadium on Saturday, November 5th.

UNDER THE BOARDS: WARRIORS WINNING RUN: Irish TV Tralee Warriors chalked up another impressive win in the Men’s Basketball SuperLeague defeating SEE Airtircity Moycullen 85-69. It was even more impressive as this game was in the National Basketball Arena in Tallaght where all the SuperLeague teams played at the weekend. This game was tight early on but by half time the Warriors were 11 ahead – 45/34. Warriors suffered a blow when Darragh O’Hanlon was forced off with a knee injury that could keep him out of this weekend’s Cup clash. Despite a Moycullen comeback of sorts The Warriors again opened that gap and were up by 12 going into the third quarter and they ran out good winners in the end.

Cup basketball is back: The Cup is certainly the glory competition in basketball and Tralee had had many glorious Cup nights including some memorable wins under the Tigers banner. This Saturday night is another big night for the new Warriors when they welcome Swords Thunder to the Complex. There should be another huge crowd as its only their second home game and the fans will be looking forward to the debut of Goran Pantovic, the 6’10” Serbian power forward. Tip off for this first leg of a two legged encounter is at 8pm but the advice is to get their early.

ST BRENDAN’S NEWS: Boys U14 Division 1: Gneeveguilla 39-21 St Brendan’s: After a close first quarter the home side put their stamp on the game in the second quarter going on a 0-13 run. The Tralee boys chased the game but could not just close the gap.

Boys U12 Division 2: St Brendan’s 25-17 Ballybunion Widlcats: The u12’s recorded their second league won of the season with a good win over the Ballybunion side. The Tralee boys were ahead by double scores at the half 14-7. Ballybunion rallied in the third but the St Brendan’s boys held on to win handy in the end.
