K.D.L. PREMIER: Tralee Dynamos 0  Lisselton Rovers 5 - Dynamos put in a tough workman like performance against League champions Lisselton who are still smarting from their exit from the F.A.I. Junior Cup to Tralee Celtic. Dynamos conceeded 2 goals in a 3 minute spell from the 15th to the 18th minute that guaranteed all 3 points for Lisselton. From the 18th minute in the first half till the 70th minute they kept Lisselton at bay with resolute defending. Dynamos will have grievance with the 3rd goal as contact was made with Dynamos keeper Timmy Cotter who had the ball in his grasp only for impact to dislodge the ball to the feet of Lisseltons striker to score from 3 yards.

K.D.L. PREMIER: Inter Kenmare 3 Tralee Dynamos 0. Dynamos second game within 72 hours and we remain pointless. Inter Kenmare scored on the stroke of half time and then got a very disputed penalty that changed the game completely. Again Dynamos lined out with a very young side with a lot of work needed to done to bring these players up to premier level. A Jeffrey Roche free kick rebounded back off the cross bar was the closest Dynamos came to scoring.

K.D.L. PREMIER: Tralee Celtic 5 Tralee Dynamos 1. It has been said often that the team that makes the least mistakes win matches. Tralee Celtic while good value for the win might accept that a closer scoreline would have been a fair reflection on this match. Dynamos with a new squad assembled will take a lot of positives from this match and look forward to the challenge of Inter Kenmare this Sunday. Diarmuid Lee scored Dynamos goal after been set up by Sean O'Reilly his shot from 25 yards beat Dermot Raggett in the Celtic goal.

FRIENDLY: Rathcoole Rovers (Cork) 5 Tralee Dynamos 0.  A tough start to the pre season for this new Dynamos team despite a good start with plenty of good passing movements. Rathcoole asserted themselves applying a lot of pressure all over the park. Rathcoole are about 5 weeks ahead of us in their preparations for the new season. Rathcoole led 1-0 at half time thanks to the goalkeeping heroics of Tim Cotter. With a  number of changes at half time the second half was a testing half. Dynamos could have some grievances with goals 3 & 5 both were offside goals. In truth the scoreline did not flatter the hosts who were very good value for their win. Many thanks to Paul Brophy of Rathcoole for organising the game and a special mention for Alfie who had the pitch in prisine condition.
