Under 14 Premier: Killarney Celtic 0 -3 Kingdom Boys:

Kingdom Boys emulated their under 15 counterparts in winning the League and Cup double and add that to the under 16 League and you will see how successful a season it has been for the Tralee club.

They went into their last game against Killarney Celtic three points ahead and knowing that they if they were beaten it would lead to a playoff . However they made no such mistake and wrapped up the title with a 3-0 win. Sean Moloney got two of the goals and Niall Sweeney the other.

Under 11 Div 1: Kingdom Boys 4- 9 Killarney Celtic B:

If there was a prize for the most improved team of the season then this Killarney Celtic side would be the winners. Having started the season poorly

they went into the alst game against Kingdom Boys knowing that a win would give them second place in the division after the Park B1.

Having beaten the champions earlier in the week they got the three points they needed with goal from David Clifford, Dean Farrell and Dion Marcus who each scored two and Finabarr Murphy, Danny Cotter and Daivd Spillane who got the others.

 Under 12 Cup Final - John Murphy Memorial Cup: Dingle Bay Rovers 1-4 Killarney Celtic:

This game was much closer than the scoreline suggests as Killarney Celtic only got the two insurance goals in the last ten minutes.

In fairness to Dingle who had won Division One they pushed the Premier champions all the way.

Celtic opened the scoring through Darren Doherty and he then put them two ahead. Dingle pulled one back before Doherty completed his hat-trick and Conor Randall added the fourth.

Apart from the Under 13 Cup which is held up due to an Appeal to the FAI, and one or two other divisions all of the Schoolboys Leagues will have been resolved by this weekend.

Under 11 Div 1: The Park B1 are already crowned champions while the battle of the second spot has gone down to the wire.

The Park B2’s have finished their games with 25 points from 12 games. Killarney Celtic B came into the final week on 21 points from 12 games. There first game was against the Park B1’s and Celtic turned in a great performance to defeat them 6-1. The Park B1 had beaten Celtic well earlier on in the season but this Killarney Celtic is one of the most improved in the League.

Dion Marcus, Dean Farrell each scored one while Garreth Sheahan and Freddie Murphy each got two.

Celtic’s last game is against Kingdom Boys.

In the other game played in this division Kingdom Boys defeated Listowel Celtic 3-0 in both sides last game of the season. Dylan O’Brien got all three goals.

Under 11 Cup Final: Inter Kenmare 0 – 3 Killarney Celtic

Played in perfect conditions in Mastergeeha Killarney Celtic under 11’s completed the Cup and League double with this 3-0 victory. Conor McCarthy had a cup final to remember scoring all three goals. In fairness to Inter they tried hard all night but were just unable to get on the score-sheet. On the other hand this Celtic team have been in great form all season and will be delighted with the two titles.

Under 12 John Murphy Memorial Cup Semi- Finals:

The line-up for the John Murphy Cup final was completed this week with Killarney Celtic defeating Camp 4-2 in the second semi final and they now go on to meet Dingle Bay Rovers in the final.

Camp’s scorers were Brandon Hoare and Sean Brosnan but goals from Daniel O’Donoghue, Conor Randall and two from Liam Carey saw the Killarney side progress.

Under 13 Premier: Listowel Celtic 0 – 0 Killarney Celtic:

The destination of second place in the Under 13 Premier title, behind winners The Park, was in the hands of Killarney Athletic over the last two weekends even though they weren’t involved themselves.

Last week they looked to have doomed the chances of Listowel Celtic of finishing second when they took a point of them. This left Killarney Celtic in a position where a win would have seen then finish second. However Athletic did there neighbours no favours and also took a point of Killarney Celtic. This means that in the battle of the Celtic’s Listowel secure while Killarney have to settle for third.

The divisions champions The Park and Dingle played out a cracker as both sides wrapped up their seasons. The Park’s goals came from James Murphy, Kyle Fitzgibbon, Jessie O’Sullivan and Roman Laucher while Dingles’ scorers were Mathew Flaherty with two, Patrick Devane and Aidan Fitzgerald.

Girls Under 13 Cup Final: Listowel Celtic 4 – 0 St Brendan’s Park:

Goals from Lauren Flavin, Erin Finnucane, Leeanne Mangan, Savannah McCarthy gave Listowel Celtic’s girls under 13’s the Cup for this season. This team are also still in with a chance of the Double as they have a must win game against Mastergeeha to come and if they win this a play-off with Killarney Celtic.

Tucker Kelly Memorial Under 16 Cup:

St Brendan’s Park 3- 1 Killarney Athletic:

Four year’s in a row the Tucker Kelly Cup has been won by St Brendan’s Park – quite a record. Following their latest victory captain Graham O’Leary was presented with the Cup by Broana Kelly, accompanied by members of her family. Tucker Kelly was a great supporter of soccer throughout the county and its only fitting that he is remembered in this way.

The game, played in Ballyhar in blazing sunshine, was preceded by a minutes silence in memory of Killarney Celtic’s Jimmy Falvey.

Onto the game and The Park were out of the blocks like a hare at the greyhound track that is only a stones throw from their home pitch.

Within a minute they were 1-0 in front. Kiernan O’Mahoney did great work on right wing and his pass found Bill Mullins who didn’t miss from just inside the box.

The opening was frantic with Athletic trying to strike back immediately and a long ball by Cian Tobin almost caught the keeper out. In their next attack Nicolas Lotata was unlucky with a header.

Just when it looked like they might equalise Athletic were rocked at the other end when a long Dushko Kovac throw was headed to the net by Sean Wier to put the Tralee side 2-0 to the good.

Athletic were stunned and the best they could offer in their 15 minutes was a corner which was headed clear by Laurence Bastible but in reality it was all The Park. Graham O’Leary had a good run and cross which just eluded his strikers, Bill Mullins had another shot on target and Kieran O’Mahony was unlucky when he beat the keeper only to see his shot cleared of the line by Colm Tobin.

It wasn’t until the 23^th minute that Athletic caused the next moment of panic in the Park’s defence. Derek Maye put in a good free-kick which the keeper could only parry but Kovac was on hand to get the ball to safety. The Park broke quickly from the kick-out and a nothing ball over the top was chased down by Bill Mullins, who was impressive all day. The bounce deceived Noel O’Sullivan in the Athletic goal and he was relieved to see Aidan Slattery get behind him to clear it off the line.

Athletic needed something to happen and in the 27^th minute they nearly got the breakthrough they were looking for Conor McGill got free and his shot was on target but Park’s keeper Ciaran Higgins made a good save.

However in the 35^th minute they did get back into the game. Cillian Fitzgerald’s ball put the keeper under pressure and Conor McGill was on hand to make it 2-1.

Indeed the same player was unlucky a minute later not to get the equaliser when he shot just over.

The Park did have the last shot in anger in the first half when Kieran O’Manhony’s effort was well saved by O’Sullivan.

Athletic opened the brighter in the second half and Cillian Fitzgerald went close twice. At the other end Mullins just failed to get on the end of a Laurence Bastible cross while Bastible himself had a shot a few minutes later which flew just wide.

A corner by Ryan Carroll drew gasps from both sets of supporters as it looked like the keeper had misjudged it but Higgins had his angles covered and it went wide of the near post.

Both sides were now cancelling each other out in the middle third of the field and chances were hard to come by. In the 25^th minute it looked like Athletic might have got the break they were after as the Park were reduced to 10 men. Kieran O’Mahony was on a yellow card and following the awarding of a free kick to Athletic he kicked the ball away (although to be fair he only moved it a few feet) but referee Seamie O’Mahony had no option but to produce a second yellow.

Athletic pushed forward but within five minutes they themselves were also down to ten men. Sean Wier’s header was parried by O’Sullivan who made a great reflex save to also deny Bill Mullins volleyed rebound but the ball again fell to Mullins and Cian Horan on the line had no option but to handle the ball and so get an early bath.

Graham O’Leary stepped up and made no mistake and so 3-1 and game over.

Athletic will be disappointed with their start and to give any team a 2-0 start was always going be very difficult to pull back. They did give it their all but it wasn’t their day. The Park’s red hot start set them up for the rest of the game and they were never going to relinquish their title and so the Tucker Kelly Cup goes back to the Park’s trophy cabinet for the fourth year in a row.

St Brendan’s Park: Ciaran Higgins, Lorcan Seymore, Diarmuid McGarry, Dushko Kovac, Aaron O’Connor, Sean Weir, Shane Callaghan, Graham O’Leary, Laurance Bastible, Bill Mullins, Kieran O’Mahony. Subs Graham O’Sullivan (on), Jonathan Sills, Fergal McNamara, Niall Murphy and Pa Fitzgibbon.

Killarney Athletic: Noel O’Sullivan, Aidan Slattery, Cian Tobin, Cian Horan, Cian O’Neill, Derek Maye, Ryan Carroll, Jeff O’Donogue, Cillian Fitzgerald, Conor McGill, Nicholas Lotata. Subs; Richard Bartlett, Chris O’Leary, Brian O’Shea, Gavin Corbett, Tom Moriarty (on) 

Referee: Seamie O’Mahony, Tom Templeman, Willie Gorman.  

League Round-Up:

Under 11 Div 1: Inter Kenmare 0 -6 Park B2: This result with goals from Sean Tansley with 2, Karl Mullins, Oisin Murry 1 and two o.g’s has set up a fascinating end to this division. The Park B2 are now five points clear of Killarney Celtic. Park B2 have played all their games while Celtic have two left. One of these is against the division Park B1, so will they do their club mates a favour. Celtics other game is against Kingdom Boys so the Park B2 have a nail-biting wait.

Under 11 Prem; Listowel Celtic 2-2 Park: Listowel Celtic and St Brendan’s Park went into this mid week game both needing a win to keep their title hopes alive but it finished in a draw and so Killarney Celtic are under 11 premier champions with The Park just beating Listowel to second by a point. For The Park James Duggan and Cillian Brosnan were on target with Darragh Sheehy and Aidan Quinn scoring for Celtic.

Under 13 Div 1: Killorglin wrapped up this division with a hard fought 2-1 over Inter. Liam Carey and Shane Riordan got the goals to give them the points and the title. Inter’s goal came from Fintan Kennedy. The result also gives second place to Camp.

Under 13 Premier: Listowel Celtic travelled to Killarney Athletic knowing that a win would guarantee them second place behind League winners The Park. However they were held to a 1-1 draw and so finish their campaign on 27 points from 14 games. Killarney Celtic are on 24 points with one game left – interestingly against Athletic so the prospect of a play-off for second place is still a possibility or will Athletic spoil it for Killarney Celtic as they did for Listowel Celtic this time?

Mastergeeha and Castleisland finished off their campaigns with Mastergeeha taking the points 4-1. Damien and Derek Breen both scored, which is good news for the Kennedy Cup management. Kelvin Teehan got the other two.

Under 15 Premier: Top spot in the division has been wrapped up by Kingdom Boys for a while but second place is really in the melting pot. Mastergeeha went into the weekend knowing they had to win against Inter Kenmare and then win their last game against Kingdom Boys to catch Killarney Celtic who are finished on 19 points. They did the first part with two goals from Mark Reen and so onto the Kingdom Boys game.

Under 16 Premier: Kingdom Boys started the week knowing that four out of six points would be enough to give them the League title. In their first game Adam Piggott was on fire scoring 4 goals against Killarney Athletic. Uros Ivkovic got the other. They were up against Fenit in their last game and again it was Piggott who did the damage, this time scoring three goals. Darren O’Brien, Scott Monaghan and Ray Walsh were also on the mark in a 6-0 win that wrapped up the under 16 title for Kingdom Boys and so deny Listowel Celtic a historic six league wins in a row.

The only down side was that Uros Ivkovic was taken to hospital with a knee injury, which happened in the warm up and we all hope is not too serious.

In the other game Camp defeated Clanmaurice 4-2. Gary Counihan netted a hat trick in his last Schoolboy game and Sean Kennedy got the other one.

Girls Under 11 League: Listowel Celtic wrapped up another girls league with this 1-1 draw away in Kenmare. Tina Magan got the all important goal.

Reports:

Under 11 Cup Semi Finals: Killarney Celtic and Inter Kenmare will meet in this years Under 11 Cup final.

However for a long time it didn’t look like it for Killarney Celtic as they 3-0 down and 4-1 down until late in the game. Indeed the first time that Killarney Celtic went ahead was when the got the seventh goal!

To be fair to the team and management they never panicked when they were behind and when they won a few corners sent up the big players and got the goals back.

For Celtic Conor Randall was the hero netting five with the other coming from David Carroll and Ciaran McCarthy.

For the unlucky Park side James Duggan and Sean Fitzmaurice got two each with Aaron Dunne and Murrough Connelly also scoring,

In the other semi final it was more straight-forward as goals from Pat Spillane, Cathal Granville and two from man-of-the-match Stephen O’Sullivan was enough to see Inter Kenmare into the final.

Both Dingle Bay goals were scored by Liam Brosnan.

Under 14 Semi Final: Killarney Celtic led this game 1-0 until very late in the game when the conceded a penalty for hand ball. Depending on which line you were on it was a definite penalty or nothing close!! Darragh Carmody showed his composure and scored to send the game into extra time and subsequently into penalties. Kingdom Boys held their nerve better scoring four and with their goal keeper Ciaran O’Connor saving two of Celtic’s Kingdom Boys go on to meet Killarney Athletic in the final.

Under 13 Premier; Mastergeeha 2-3 Killarney Athletic; Mastergeeha’s hopes of a top two finish suffered a blow in this game as they went down to local rivals Athletic. Athletic had Denis O’Sullivan, Christian Lastarczy and Risteard Clifford on the mark to take the points while for Mastergeeha Kennedy Cup bound Damien Breen scored twice.

Under 15 Premier: Killarney Athletic have an outside chance of getting into second place in this division following their 4-1 win over Mastergeeha. Two goals from Cillian Fitzgerald and one each from Brian O’Shea and Colm Tobin gave Athletic the points while Gary O’Leary replied for Mastergeeha.

 Under 16 Premier: While a lot of the focus in this division has been on Listowel Celtic and Kingdom Boys, The Park have been quietly picking up points and have now moved into third place following this win and are well in contention.

Under 15 Cup Semi Final: Mastergeeha 1 – 1 Killarney Athletic AET

                                            Mastergeeha win 4-2 on penalties.

This was always going to be very tight, especially after the same teams drew 2-2 in the League on the previous weekend. Enda O’Sullivan scored for Mastergeeha and Jack O’Connor for Athletic in normal time and with no more scores in extra time it was onto the dreaded penalties. Jeff O’Donoghue and Jason Aherne were on the mark for Athletic but it wasn’t enough as Mastergeeha were in top form from the spot with Enda O’Sullivan, Graham O’Leary, Jamie Spillane and James Devane all scoring to set up an intriguing final against Kingdom Boys.

 

Under 11 Div 1:

Goals from Jonathan O’Sullivan and Dean George gave Killorglin all three points in this game.

 

Under 13 Premier: St Brendan’s Park take the top honours in this division with a league winning 1-0 win over Killarney Athletic. Tomas Ziga got the all important goal despite the best efforts of man of the match Roy Kelliher in the Athletic goal.

The battle for second places continues at pace with Listowel Celtic moving 2 points  ahead of Killarney Celtic thanks to a 4-0 win over Kingdom Boys. Sean Gilbert scored twice with Michael Woods and Kevin Bowler getting one each.

Under 15 Premier:

Kingdom Boys wrapped up the Under 15 premier title following the clash of the top two. They led Killarney Celtic by three points going in and had a game in hand so they knew a win would be enough. It was a very tight affair with Kingdom Boys jst coming out on the right side of a five goal thriller.

Tadgh Moore got the two goals for Celtic but Adam Piggott, Uros Ivkovic and Niall O’Riordan once again proved their class and their goals saw the title go to the Tralee side.

 

Under 16 Premier:

The see-saw battle at the top of this division has shifted in favour of Kingdom Boys following their 2-0 win over challengers Listowel Celtic. The top of the table now see Kingdom Boys with 25 points from 9 games, Listowel Celtic with 25 points from 10 played and Killarney Celtic on 22 points from 10 games.

Kingdom Boys have two games left – Killarney Athletic and Fenit while Listowel have only Killarney Athletic left to play.

Adam Piggott and Darren O’Brien were the Kingdom Boys scorers but the win was built on a superb back four performance from Aaron Houlihan, Ian McCarthy, Donal O’Sullivan and Patrick Sweeney who didn’t put a foot wrong all night.

 

Girls: Under 13 Killarney Celtic 2-1 Listowel Celtic:

Killarney Celtic were jubilant following this rare win over Listowel. They now lead their rivals by three points but Listowel have one game left so a win over Mastergeeha would see the two Celtic clash again for the title. However anything less for Listowel Celtic would see Killarney take the title. Leanne Mangan got the Listowel goal but two from Olivia Dawson, the winner set up by a perfect Lucy Lyne pass, saw the Killarney hoops take the vital three points.

 

Under 15 Girls Cup Final: Inter Kenmare 0- 7 Listowel Celtic:

Played on a perfect Ballyhar pitch Inter tired hard and had some great performance from the likes of Siobhan Kennedy and player of the match Geraldine Cahillane. However this Listowel Celtic side exudes confidence and Dominic Scanlon’s side had hat tricks from Megan Galvin and Amy Griffin and one from Norma O’Sullivan to take the Cup back to their bulging trophy cabinet.

Under 11 Cup:

In a back game Killarney Celtic got the better of a young Park side 7-2 to qualify for a place in the quarter final and a meeting with Listowel Celtic. Evan Cronin put Celtic 1-0 up but the Park scored the next two. Celtic heeded the warning and took control will a Conor Randall hat-trick and further goals from Stephen Kelliher, Michael Murphy and Fergal O’Donoghue.

There were two semi final places decided with The Park A going through 2-0 against Listowel Celtic B while Dingle Bay Rovers were 3-1 winners over Camp. Two goals from Liam Browne and one from Conor Geaney put Dingle through while Eoghan Curry’s reply wasn’t enough for Camp.

 

Under 13 Cup semi final:

Castleisland booked their place in the final the hard way winning on penalties after a scoreless game and scoreless extra time.

Colm Murphy, Paul Nelligan and Shane O’Connor kept their heads from the spot and put their side through. They will have to wait a little to see who they play as the Park and Kingdom Boys quarter final hasn’t been decided with Listowel Celtic A awaiting the winners in the other semi final.

 

Under 15 Cup semi final:

Kingdom Boys were too strong for neighbours Park in the first of the under 15 semi finals. Two hat-tricks, one from Adam Piggott and the other from Darren O’Brien plus two from Uros Ivkovic and one from Scott Monaghan put the Tralee side into the final where they await the winners of the other semi final, being played later this week, between Mastergeeha and Killarney Athletic.

 

Under 13 Girls Cup Final:

Another piece of silverware is heading for the Listowel Celtic club house following this win over Inter Kenmare in the final. Lauren Flavin, Rebecca Horgan and Leanne Mangan were all on the score sheet for the winners.

 

 

League Reports:

Under 11 Premier: Killarney Athletic 6- 0 Mastergeeha:

Killarney Athletic were too strong for Mastergeeha in this game and picked up another three points to stay in the top half of the division. Mastergeeha were playing their last game of a tough season but never gave up trying and working hard.

Ronan Buckley continued his recent good form scoring twice as did Gavin White while the other goals came from Adam O’Shea and Michael Casey.

 

Under 11 Div 1:

Kingdom Boys B 2- 2 Park B2; Killarney Celtic will be thankful to Kingom Boys ofr taking points of the nearest challengers in this game. The Park did pick up a point which leaves them two behind Celtic in third place. Dylan Burke and Karl Mullins were on the mark for Park.

 

Under 13 Prem:

Listowel Celtic closed the game on the two sides above them following their 4-0 win away to Camp. Sean Farrell. Michael Woods, Sean Gilbert and Thomas Scanlon all scored one each to put Listowel Celtic on 20 points and in third on their own as Mastergeeha, who were level with them didn’t play.

The Park lead the way on 28 points followed by Killarney Celtic on 20 points.

 

Under 13 Div 1:

Sitting top of the table at the start of play Killorglin picked up another vital three points but were made work all the way by Clanmaurice. Killorglin move onto 28 points from 11 games and with one left to play, lead Camp by seven points but they have 3 games left. Wesley Delaney scored twice from the penalty spot and Liam Carey got the other goal.

Camp moved into second place in the division and two points ahead of Inter Kenmare, who do have a game in hand, following their 6-0 home win against Listowel Celtic B. Jonathan Deane has had a very good season and netted another hat trick. Shane Spillane, Brandon Hoare and Jason Walsh were also on the mark.

 

Under 15 Div 1:

Camp 3- 0 Listowel Celtic: This was the last game of the season for these two sides and a huge game as it was the title decider. Celtic were a point ahead going into the game but home advantage certainly worked out for Camp as they took the title.

James Crean put them 1-0 up early on. Both sides battled hard and had chances to score but it wasn’t until 15 minutes to go when Keelan Dowling scored a crucial goal for Camp and just to make sure he added another late on.

Well done to Eamon Travers and Aidan Smith and their charges on this win and afterwards were presented with their trophy by League chairman Noel White.

 

Under 15 Prem:

Mastergeeha 2-2 Killarney Athletic: This league game acted as a dress rehearsal for their meeting in the Cup semi final later in the week and proved to be an exciting affair. Padraig Nagle got two for Mastergeeha, either side of a Colm Tobin strike. Just when it looked like the home side would take the confidence boost of the win into the semi final Ronan Murphy steeped up to equalise in the last minute.

 

Under 16: Inter Kenmare L – L Clanmaurice.

First week of May – Mid Week Results:

Under 12 Cup Quarter Final: Listowel Celtic 0 – 3 Killarney Celtic:

Killarney Celtic set up a semi final clash with The Park, who have finished runner-up to them in the League after defeating their namesakes 3-0 although to be fair to Listowel the score-line was a little flattering. The game finished 0-0 after normal time but in the extra period Killarney Celtic got the better of things with goals from Shane Cronin, Conor Randall and Michael Burns.

 

Under 12 Premier:

Park 8- 4 Killarney Athletic: This 12 goal thriller saw St Brendan’s Park wrap up second place to their old rivals Killarney Celtic following their win over the other Killarney side, Athletic. The Park who won the League at under 11 last season and Celtic who won the Cup must meet again in the Semi Final of this season’s Cup.

In this game The Park had seven different scorers showing their danger all over the field with Roman Laucher leading the way with two goals.

Jessie O’Sullivan, Cian Sheridan, Willie Hurley, Gavin O’Brein, George Carneige and Ryan Carroll all scored one each.

 

Under 13 Prem: Kingdom Boys 2-1 Killarney Athletic: Goals from Dylan Flynn and Gary O’Neill gave Kingdom Boys the three points in this game between two sides who have struggled a little in the League this season.

 

Under 14: Killarney Celtic 6-0 Killarney Athletic: Killarney Celtic came into this must win game for them a point behind Athletic and knowing that nothing less that three points was going to be enough to keep their title dreams alive. They succeeded with a great performance and had goals from Kieran Murphy, Cathal Sheehan, Scott O’Mahony, Liam O’Sullivan, Wayne Sparling and Conor Keane.

The last game of the season will see second placed Celtic meet Kingdom Boys who top the table and lead the Killarney side by three points. A Celtic win will set up a play-off while anything for Kingdom Boys will see them claim the title.

 

Under 15 Prem: Kingdom Boys 3-1 Mastergeeha: Two goals from Darren O’Brein and one from Adam Piggott saw Kingdom Boys strengthen their grip at the top of the under 15 division.

 

Under 16: There was plenty of mid week action at under 16 level and after these games Listowel Celtic top the table on 25 points from 9 games followed by Kingdom Boys on 22 points from 8 games with both sides having to play each other once more this season. Listowel got the better of Castleisland 2-1 with goals from Kevin O’Connor and Bryan Murphy. Sean Brosnan got the Castleisland goal.

 

Castleisland played again on Thursday night and Brosnan again scored. This time the goal was enough to give Castleisland all three points in a 1-0 win over Killarney Athletic who were unlucky to come up against an inspired Paul White in the Castleisland goal who made a number of vital saves.

 

Killarney Celtic made sure of at least third place (they are level in second with Kingdom Boys but have played two games more) with this 4-0 win over Clanmaurice. Brendan Favley was outstanding scoring all four goals.

St Kevin’s Boys 9-1 Killarney Celtic.

Killarney Celtic’s great run in this season’s National Cup came to an end when they came up against and excellent Kevin’s Boys side. Celtic had hoped to keep the home side early in the game but this plan went out the window as they conceded after 35 seconds and unfortunately it didn’t get any better.

Daniel o’Donoghue got the Killarney Celtic consolation.

 

Under 12 Cup’s:

With The Park already through and the Killarney Celtic / Listowel Celtic and Camp / Listowel Celtic B games off there were four places in the last 8 of the Under 12 Cup up for grabs on Saturday.

Killorglin saw off Fenit by the same score. Liam Carney (2), Tommy Cahill and David Costello were the Killorglin scorers with Denis Cosgrove replying for Fenit.

Killarney Athletic, with Jordan Kiely, Sean McGrath, David Sheerin, Brendan Cronin, Ziaul Hoque and Johnny O’Leary all on the mark, got the better of a gallant Park C side whose reply came from Ryan Byrnes.

Things were much closer in Dingle with Dingle Bay Rovers getting the better of Ballyhar by the odd goal in seven. James O’Donoghue and Kierna Brosan (2) were on the mark of Ballyhar with a hat-trick from Cathal Bambury and one from Tom O’Sullivan saw the West Kerry side into the hat for the next round.

However plaudits on the day must go to Iveragh United who, with two goals from Jamie Goggins saw off Kingdom Boys.

 

Under 12 Div1:

Under 16 Cup:

Killarney Celtic 1-2 Kingdom Boys: Kingdom Boys certainly have the Indian sign over the Killarney counterparts as they have come out on top on all three occasions that they met this season.

National Cup Under 15 – Last 16:

Kingdom Boys 2-0 Home Farm:

Kingdom Boys under 15’s march on into the last eight of this year’s Under 15 National Cup following this comfortable 2-0 win over Home Farm. The home side certainly were quick out of the blocks and forced a corner within two minutes. However they had to wait until the 15^th minute to make the vital breakthrough. Aaron Houlihan, who was to prove a handful all day from set pieces floated a free kick into the Home Farm box and when Darragh O’Brien knocked it down Ian McCarthy was on hand to hook a superb volley to the roof of the net.

Indeed Kingdom Boys could be 2-0 up a couple of minutes later when Dara O’Brien was again up with the attack and when Adam Piggott back-heeled the ball he struck a shot that looked to be heading for the top corner of the net but Home Farm keeper Greg Murray dived full length to his left to keep it out.

Home Farm did come into the game a little in the second quarter and were getting a little more room that the Kingdom Boys management will have liked in the middle of the field but they rarely threatened Owen Crean in the goal.

Kingdom Boys started the second half as they did the first and within minutes Darren O’Brien, Darragh O’Brien and Uros Ivkovic all came close.

It was the fifteenth minute again when the damage was done and the game was over as a contest. A great corner from Houlihan was knocked on by Ian McCarthy and Adam Piggott was on hand this time to score.

For the rest of the game Kingdom Boys were in control and keeper Owen Crean came within a whisker of an amazing goal which would have made it 3-0. With all the Home Farm players including the keeper pushed forward for a corner Crean caught the ball and launched a massive kick that looked like going all the way to the net but in fairness to Paddy Seerey he chased all the way back and just prevented the ball rolling over the line.

This was the last action of the day on which the Tralee sides back four were the pick of the players never putting a foot wrong all game.

Kingdom Boys can now start planning for a home quarter final against Mervue from Galway, the stage of the competition that has seen them going out in the past few seasons. However there is belief in this side that this could be their year and with improvement in one or two areas they could go all the way.

 

Under 11 Cup: 25 teams entered the Under 11 Cup which shows the strength of schoolboys soccer in Kerry at the moment so 18 teams faced went head to head in the first round to join the remaining nine in the last 16.

Camp (Owen Curry, Maurice Slattery and Jack Nix 2 each and Fiachra Geary) were 7-2 winner over Mastergeeha from whom David Gleeson scored twice.

Castleisland, a non league side at this age did very well for three quarters of their game against the much more experienced Kingdom Boys and were only 2-1 down entering into the last quarter. Ethan O’Connor got the Castleisland goal while Reen O’Connor got 2 and Danny Kinsella, Ferdie O’Brien and Lorcan Foley all scored for the Tralee side.

Fenit B, with a hat trick from Bobby O’Regan and one from Oisin O’Brien got past Listowel Celtic C while Inter B saw off Killarney Celtic B 4-2. Jordan White 2, Sean Casey and Tom Gudgeon were on the mark for Inter while Danny Cotter from the penalty spot and an og were Celtic’s score.

Killarney Athletic B were 3-0 winners over Killarney Celtic C who entered three teams such are the numbers playing for the Hoops.

Killarney Athletic’s A side are also into the next round. They had Dylan O’Sullivan, Michael Casey, Adam O’Shea and Ronan Sweeney among their goals as they saw off Kingdom Boys B.

Fenit A were 6-3 winners over Iveragh United with Ryan Dolan getting a hat trick and Dave Murphy, Mark Williams and Cian McGarry all scoring.

St Brendan’s Park will have three teams in the hat for the next round as their A and B sides both progressed.

The B’s were too strong for Killorglin A. Padraig O’Brien scored for Killorglin but goals from Danny O’Reilly getting two and one each from Oisin Fitzgerald, Stephen Lowth, Josh Loucher and Padraig Griffin saw the through. For good measure Padraig O’Connor, in The Park goal saved a penalty.

The Park A’s saw off Killorglin B 9-1 with Sean Dukes getting a hat trick, Sean Fitzgerald and Murrough Connolly getting two and Christopher Lee and Jessie Stafford Lacey all scoring.

Under 12 Cup: Killorglin booked their place in the with an easy win over Killarney Celtic B. Daniel McBeth, Jonathan Coffey, Gavin O’Riordan, Liam Carey, Paudie McMahon, John Tyther and Liam Tyther who was scoring his first ever goal were all on the mark.

Under 13 Cup: Killarney Celtic’s two teams were drawn against each other in the first round and as expected the A’s won with Ryan O’Connon 3, Dara Roche and COnor Keane among the goals.

Killorglin defeated Inter Kenmare 1-0 while Killarney Athletic travelled to Listowel Celtic and best their B team 2-1. Cathal Kearney got the Listowel goal.

The Park A (George Craneige, Jack Savage, Roman Loucher and Greg Horan, were 4-2 winners over Clanmaurice while the Park B (Ryan Keeley) went down 4-1 to Camp whose goals came from Jonathan Deane, Kian Kennedy and Brandon Hoare 2.

Mastergeeha had goals from Matthew Keane and Damien Breen but it wasn’t enough as Kevin Bowler 2, Aaron Farrell and Sean Gilbert scored to put Listowel Celtic A through.

Under 13 Premier: There was one game in the League at this age group with Castleisland defeating Kingdom Boys 5-1. Jack Cooney helped himself to a hat trick with Shane O’Connor getting the other two.

Under 14 Cup: Killorglin 5-1 Clanmaurice: Brian Carney, Cormac o’Connor and Gary O’Shea all scored as Killorglin went into the hat for the next round.

Under 15 Cup: Killarney Athletic were 4-1 winners over Listowel Celtic (Darragh Kennelly) and progress to the second round. The Athletic scorers were Jeff O’Donoghue, Ronan Murphy, Jack O’Connor and Brian O’Shea.

Killarney Celtic and Fenit drew 1-1 and as extra time wasn’t played this one will go to the Committee room for a decision as to what happens next.

Mastergeeha had a good 5-0 win away to Kingdom Boys B. Padraig Nagle, Jamie Spillane, Mark Reen, Padraig Collins and Noel Duggan all scored.

Park A beat their team mates 5-0 with Aaron Eager, Danny Roche and a Stephen Knightly hat trick seeing them through.

Under 15 Div 1:   Dingle Bay Rovers 0-2 Camp: With this win Camp move level with Listowel Celtic at the top of the table on 18 points though they now have one game extra played. Adam O’Donnell got both the Camp scores.

Under 16 National Cup Last 32: Killarney Celtic 2-4 Kingdom Boys AET.

The Kingdom Boys under 16 team gave the club the perfect end to a memorable week which started with the u15’s reaching the last 16 of their National Cup and continued with Tralee Dynamos A Championship launch mid week.

In this game Kingdom Boys were pushed all the way and it wasn’t until extra time that they clinched their in the last 16 where they now face Corinthian’s from Cork.

Celtic started well with Chris Brady and Robert Watson causing the Tralee side a lot of problems. Indeed we almost witness one of the best goals scored at Celtic Park when Chris Davis, Robert Watson and Chris Brady all combined with a one touch move that ended with Brady just putting his volley on the wrong side of the post.

Celtic got their reward in the 21^st minute when Chris Brady crossed and Chris Brady was able to poke the ball past a stranded Barry Galvin.

However the Tralee side were level before the break when Scott Monaghan squeezed the ball home from a tight angle.

Into the second half and Kingdom Boys were on top and in truth should have gone 3-1 up when Darren O’Sullivan went one on one with the keeper but David Gleeson did very well to deny him.

However one minute later he was powerless to stop Diarmuid Lee who picked up the ball outside the box and shot home across the Celtic keeper to put them 2-1 ahead.

But their lead only lasted two minutes. Terrance Moriarty pickled up the ball and ran at the heart of the Kingdom Boys defence before being taken down. David O’Sullivan stepped up to level up the game.

Celtic had the better chances to win the game in the closing minutes Tadgh Moore’s glancing header went agonisingly wide.

Into extra time and here Kingdom Boys showed their class and took all the opportunities that they got with Adam Piggott setting up Darren O’Brien for their third At the end of the first period and Adam himself netting the fourth in the first minute of the second period. In this passage of play Celtic keeper David Gleeson took a totally accidental blow to the head and the game was held up for twenty minutes. Everyone wishes him a speedy recovery.

After the delay the game petered out with Kingdom Boys happy to hold what they had and march into the last 16 in Ireland alongside their under 15 team. This is a great achievement for all those associated with both teams.

Under 12 National Cup: Killarney Celtic 2-0 Ballyoulster:

There was much better news for Killarney Celtic at under 12 level when they qualified for the last 16 of their National Cup. They defeated their Kildare opposition 2-0 with both goals coming from Darren O’Doherty.

Celtic were the better side and were very tight at the back. They welcomed Shane Ryan back into goal following a long injury and he was very assured as were his defenders, especially Donal Lyne.

Up front they had chances in the first half but couldn’t get the break through. All that changed five minutes into the second period when Darren O’Doherty got on the end of a long ball from Lyne and coolly slipped the ball under the keeper, who tried his best to get back but couldn’t prevent the ball from dribbling into the net.

O’Doherty wrapped things up 6 minutes later with a great shot to send Celtic into the last 16 and a clash with St Joseph ’s from Galway .

St Brendan’s Park 0 – 4 Crumlin: This was the proverbial game of two halves, with the Park having the wind in the first half but they were unable to make the break through, in a scoreless period. However after the break Crumlin had the strong wind at their back and made the Park play running out 4-0 winners.

Cup competition:

Under 12 Cup: There was one first round game played in this competition and it was Ballyhar who came out on top defeating Park b2) 4-0 to move into the second round.

James O’Donoghue got 2 with Kieran Brosnan and Oisin Coghlan getting the others.

Under 14 Cup: Camp, Killarney Athletic and Killarney Celtic all move into the second round. Camp were 5-2 winners over St Bernard’s and had goals from Jonathan Deane 2, Sam Moriarty, Juno Boland and Sean Kennedy.

Killarney Athletic had goals from Ronan Murphy 2, and Cathal Murphy in their 3-1 over Mastergeeha.

The Park were 5-1 winners in Ballyhar. For the home side David King got the consolation but goals from Tomas Ziga, Greg Horan, Brendan Evans and Aaron Eager put the Tralee side into the hat for the next round.

Killarney Celtic were too strong for Dingle Bay running out 8-0 winners. Conor Keane and Scott O’Mahoney got tow each with John Moriarty, Gary O’Sullivan, Dara Roche and Wayne Sparling all getting one each.

Under 12 Div 1: Camp 3-3 Mastergeeha:

Both sides will be happy enough with a point here but Mathew Keane will probably be a little disappointed as he got all three goals for Mastergeeha.

Hughie O’Brien got two and Brandon Hoare the other for Camp.

Under 12 Premier:

Killarney Athletic made the long trip to Listowel Celtic a profitable one coming away with all three points. Adam O’Rourke scored for the home side but goals from Danny Healy and Jordan Kiely sees Athletic move into second place, leapfrogging Inter Kenmare who didn’t play.

Under 16 Premier:

Iveragh United 5-0 Inter Kenmare. Iveragh United moved into second place, although they have played more games than those around them following this win played during the week under lights. Boize Keating lead the scoring with two and Chris Farrelly, Dan Daly and Oran Clifford got the others.

Park 10- 3 Castleisland:

The Park move into third place following this win over a below strength Castleisland side who tried hard. Sean Brosnan got two of their goals with Mike Hannafin getting the other. Bill Mullins was on fire for the Park netting four, Kieran Murphy got three, Graham O’Leary 2 and Sean Weir the last.

Girls League: Under 13:There is no stopping Listowel Celtic in this age group and are now eight wins from eight game. Once again Savanah McCarthy was the star netting five, Lauren Flavin and Roisin Doyle got two each and Rebecca Harrington getting the other.  

Killarney Athletic 0-3 Inter Kenmare: Goals from Lalya O’Mahoney, Rachael Topham and Aoife O’Shea gave Kenmare the points and allows them to close on those above them.

Girls Under 17 League Final:

The first silverware of the 2008/09 season in the Kerry Schoolgirls League was picked up by Ballyhar as they defeated Killarney Celtic 2-0. Emma Sherwood was the hero netting twice.

Under 12 Nat Cup: Killarney Celtic 1- 0 Aisling Annacotty, St Brendan’s Park 4 – 2 Avenue.

Under 14 Nat Cup:  Killarney Celtic 0 – 3 Caherdavin.

Under 12 National Cup:Kerry last two representatives are still going strong in the National Cup and are now into the last 32. Killarney Celtic got the better of Aisling Annacotty 1-0 with the goal coming from Liam Kearney, direct from a superb free kick. At the other end Celtic were thankful to his cousin David Kearney who was superb between the posts.

Killarney Celtic are now at home to DDSL side Ballyouster United in what will be a tough game. However no side will relish the trip to Celtic Park so hopefully they can continue this great run.

St Brendan’s Park 4-2 Avenue: Avenue are one of the top sides in Clare and weren’t afraid to come to Tralee to take on The Park. But this is a very good Park side and the game lived up to its billing. The home side went ahead inside five minutes through George Carneige. Avenue levelled before half time. The second period was similar with The Park going back in front through Jessie O’Sullivan but Avenue again fought back and equalised just before full time.

Into extra time and things were still deadlocked after the first period but into the second period and The Park showed their class scoring twice more – through Gavin O’Brien and the prolific Jessie who got his second of the day to wrap things up. The Park now welcome Schoolboy hotshots Crumlin United to Tralee in the next 32 for what should be a cracker and again we all hope The Park can move forward and who knows a Park v Celtic clash later in the competition!

Under 14 National Cup: Killarney Celtic’s run in this season’s National Cup came to an end going down 3-0 to Caherdavin. There was only one goal in it for the majority of the game but with Celtic chasing an equaliser Caherdavin broke away to score two late goals.

Under 12 Premier: Inter Kenmare 2-1 Killarney Athletic. Two goals from Fionnan O’Sullivan were enough to see Inter pick up the three points and move into second place in the table on 10 points but they have played more games than those around them.

Under 12 Div 1:Dingle Bay Rovers are unbeaten in eight games and sit proudly top of the table and were this week too strong for Kingdom Boys winning 8-1. There was a brace of goals from Mathew Flaherty, Garrett Brosnan and Cathal Banbury and one each for the two O’Sullivans – Tom and Barry.

Six players scored to show how well the Park are playing and they were Conor Jordan, Tomas Ziga, Greg Horan, Brandon Evans, Aaron Eager and Thomas O’Brien who netted twice.

Third placed Dingle were well beaten at home by a very happy St Bernards side who were delighted to take the three points home from the West. Danny Collins was the top scorer hitting 4 with Dougie Fitzell, Stephen Egan, Sean O’Mahoney and Garry Nealon getting the others. For Dingle Shane Houlihan netted a hat-trick but unfortunately for him it didn’t count for much.

Fenit were another side to go on the road and take home the points following their trip to Camp. Jonathan Deane and Rory Cheevers got the goals for the home side but a Brendan O’Connor hat-trick and one each from Donnacha McGarry (who netted from the penalty spot after five minutes) and Killian Fitzgerald gave Fenit three much needed points.

Ballyhar also picked up three points with their 4-0 win over Ballyhar with Owen Sheehan, Garroid Coghlan and Fergal Hallissey (2) getting on the mark.

Under 16 Premier: With the leaders at the start of the day, Killarney Athletic on 13 points, not playing teams close to them were hoping to take advantage.

National Cup: Kingdom in with the big boys!

In their fourth round National Cup clash Kingdom Boys has a very good 2-1 win over Kilmallock. They are now into the last 32 in the country and in the open draw. Ian McCarthy and Darren O’Brien got the goals.

They were the only Kerry side to go through this weekend. At under 11 level Inter went down to a very Charleville side 6-1 with Stephen O’Sullivan getting the goal.

At under 12 level Killarney Athletic travelled away to Kilmallock but went down 2-0. However they have had a good run to get to this stage.

The under 13 clash between Park and Charleville went all the way to penalties. This was the game that was abandoned on penalties due to bad weather so there was always going to very little between the sides.

Unfortunately the Park went out 5-4 after the spot kicks.

At under 14’s Listowel Celtic also went down to Caherdavin. It finished 3-1 with Patrick O’Keeffe getting Celtic’s goal. The other game at this age group didn’t finish with Rathkeale and Kingdom Boys now waiting for the referees report.

Fenit were unlucky to go down 1-0 to Bridge United from Clare after a very good performance.

Seven of the Best – plus two to go:

After this round of National Cup games, at even ages, Kerry has seven teams left in the draw, with Listowel to play Caherdavin at under 14 and Camp to pay Tulla Utd in fixtures to be rearranged.

All of these teams go into the last 8 in the Munster section, just one win away from the last 32 in the country.

Under 12 National Cup: At under 12 level Asdee’s run came to an end with a defeat to Kilmallock 1-6. Niall O’Dowd got the goal for Asdee. Listowel Celtic also went out going down 3-0 to Avenue Utd. They were unfortunate as the score was 0-0 with 12 minutes to go before they went a goal down. They then pushed for the equaliser but were caught on the break.

In the all Kerry clash Killarney Athletic defeated Kingdom Boys 3-2. Terry Mustafi and Kevin O’Shea got the goals for the Tralee side but it is the Killarney team that are into the next round following two goals from David Sheerin and one from Danny Healy. Killarney Celtic had a great 1-0 win away in Limerick defeating Fairview Rangers. Chris Doncell got the goal for Celtic who can be thankful to Liam Kearney in goal who saved a penalty late in the game.

The tightest game was between The Park and Nenagh which finished 2-2 after full time with The Park going through 4-2 after extra time. Their goals came from Roman Laucher, Gavin O’Brien and two from Jessie O’Sullivan.

Under 14 National Cup: Kerry side went two from two in this section with Killarney Celtic and Kingdom Boys having easy wins – Celtic 9-1 over St Bernard’s and K Boys 7-0 winners over Ballymackey. For Killarney Celtic Kieran Murphy, Scott O’Mahoney and Alan Brosnan got two each with Brendan Ashe, Wayne Sparling and Conor Keane getting one each.

For Kingdom Boys Sean Moloney, Niall Sheehy, Wayne Duggan and Darragh Carmody were amongst the goals.

Under 16 National Cup: Again it was the same story here with Killarney Celtic and Kingdom Boys again going through although Kingdom Boys had a much tougher time at this age group. Killarney Celtic defeated Adare 7-1 woth Robert Watson putting them 1-0 up before Adare equalised. However that was as close as they came with Watson adding another and Chris Davies and Brady both scoring twice before half time.

Brendan Falvey added two more in the second half.

Kingdom Boys defeated Broadford United 2-1. This was a great game with the sides still scoreless after 60 minutes. The Tralee side took the lead when a Broadford defender handles a Dara O’Brien free kick and Uros Ivkovic netted from the spot.

Broadford equalised, also from the penalty spot, after keeper Barry Galvin took down Coughlin inside the box and Brosnan put away the spot kick.

It looked to be heading for extra time but Darren O’Brien had other ideas heading home a Dara O’Brien free kick to put Kingdom Boys into the hat.

League Roundup:

Under 12 Premier: Ballyhar and Inter Kenmare drew 1-1 in the only Premier game played. Kieran Brosnan put Ballyhar ahead with Killian Spillane equalising.

Under 12 Div 1:Top side Dingle Bay Rvs made it six league wins from six defeating Camp 2-1, in Camp to top the table.  Liam Brosnan put the away side ahead and Garrett Hickey Brosnan doubled their advantage. Brandon Hoare pulled one back but they ran out time as they tried for an equaliser.

Killarney Celtic B put up a good performance before going down to Fenit, who now move into second spot, overtaking Killorglin who didn’t play. Gary Hannafin, Fiachra Griffin, Fionn Griffin, Denis Cosgrove and Des McCarthy were on the mark for Fenit.

 Mastergeeha had a big win over the gallant Listowel Celtic B side to move onto ten points and close the gap on the top three.

Philip Casey and Matthew Keane both got hat tricks with John O’Donoghue, Chris Keane and Gearoid Kerins also on the mark.

Darius Barry pulled back one for Listowel but it was only a consolation.

Under 14 Div 1;Only two games survived the ‘big freeze’ here with Inter Kenmare taking advantage and moving to the top of the table, defeating Ballyhar 3-0. Brian Clifford got two and Johnnie O’Brien netted the other.

Camp had a five star performance from Jonathan Deane who scored five in their 8-3 win away to Killorglin. Twins Joey and Juno Boland got one each with Fintan Herlihy getting the other. For Killorglin Cormac O’Connor got two and Conor Healy got the other.

Girls Under 13;Listowel Celtic are unbeaten in six games now and in this win over The Park had golas from Niamh Carmody, Lauren Flavin, Rebecca Horgan and Savanah McCarthy.

Killarney Celtic and Mastergeeha are chasing them and this weekend Celtic beat neighbours with goals from Olivia Dawson and Lucy Lyne among others. Mastergeeha and Inter Kenmare had a good battle with the home side getting the points following their 2-1 win. Aisling Coffey got Mastergeeha two with Lalya O’Mahoney replying for Inter.

Reports:

Under 12 Div 1:

Dingle Bay Rvs continue to lead the way in this division and were too strong for Mastergeeha as they recorded

their 6th win frm 6 in the League. Michael Flannery got two with Mike O'Connor, Liam Brosnan, Colm Greaney

and Morgan Moriarty netting one each. Killorglin are keeping up thr pressure on the leaders following their 2-1 win over

Kingdom Boys. Brian O'Connell got their goal for the Tralee side but a brace from Tommy Cahill gave Killorglin all three points. 

Fenit are also well in thr hunt for division honours and defeated Camp 2-1 at the weekend. Fionn Griffin and Denis Cosgrave

were the scorers with Aidan Cox getting the Camp score.

Further down the division there were two draws with the Park B and Clanmaurice sharing six goals. Jasmin Gheorghe, Brian Hill and Fionn 

Kavanagh were the Tralee side's scoreresw while in the other game Killarney Celtic B and Asdee played out a rare scoreline in the Kerry Schoolboys 

League of 0-0.

 

Under 12 Premier:

Killarney Athletic 1-2 Killarney Celtic was the big result in this division, allowing the league leaders Celtic to pull a further three points clear of The Park 

who didnt play. Daniel O'Donoghue put Celtic ahead but this was cancelled out by a Jordan Kiely equaliser. It looked to be heading for a draw but hot-shot striker 

Darren O'Doherty had other ideas and was on hand to knock in the winner and so give the Hoops all three points.

Inter Kenmare gave themselves a much needed win defeating Listowel Celtic 1-0 at home with Fionan O'Sullivan netting the only goal of the game.

 

Under 14 Div 1

This is turning into a real battle between three teams with the Park just leading the way from Inter Kenmare and Dingle who are tied in 2nd place on 13 points, two 

behind the leaders. The Park defeated St Bernards 3-1 with thier goals coming from Thomas Ziega, Brendan Flavn and Greg Horan from thr penalty spot. However

they were grateful to Pa Fitzgibbon in goal for a string of saves including a number of one on ones. His display was all the better considering he has been out for

a number of weeks with injury.

Inter won on the road, away to Fenit 3-1. They had Brian Corcoran, Brian Crowley and Steven O'Sullivan on target while Donnacha McGarry got thr Fenit goal.

Dingle were too good for Killorglin winning 4-0 against Ballyhar. Rowan Copeland, Aidan Finn, Jonathan Deane and Fintsn Herlihy were all on target.

 

Under 14 Prem

Kingdom Boys contiune to top the table here after recording their 5th win in 6 games when they defeated Clanmaurice 3-1. Killarney Athletic put six past Mastergeeha

to close the gap at the top of the table to three points and they have a game in hand. Jack O'Connor led the scoring charts with a hat trick woth Ronan Murphy, Conor Moriarty

and Kimfula getting the others. Killarney Celtic might consider their 3-3 draw with Listowel two points dropped but they have games in hand on those above them and are only two points 

behind neighbours Athletic.

 

Under 16 Premier:

Two points seperate five teams in thiws division. Its a Celtic one-two at the top with both Listowel and Killarney on 13 points - albeit with Listwel playing two games fewer.

Both teams scored five with Listowel defeating Clanmauirce following goals from Brian Murphy, Kieran O'Connor, Jonathan McCoy in the first half and two more in the second half from Jamie Barry and Dara Kennelly.

Killarney's goals came from Brendan Falvey (2), the two Chris's - Brady and Hayes and Robert Watson
