Membership is now due and all members
are asked to pay up as soon as possible for 2002.
Last Saturday the club hosted the doubles U12, U13 and U14 team
event that was run by Kerry Handball Board for the first time.
The event was a great success and it was marvellous to see so
many children taking part. We wish to thank all the clubs, Abbeydorney,
Glenbeigh, Tralee and an Gaeltacht, who traveled, as it was the
entries that made the event.
We wish to thank all our club members who took part and all the
adults who helped out on the day.
A special thanks to Ann Lawlor, County Board Assistant Secretary
for all the work she did to facilitate the smooth running of the
day's events.
Congratulations to the winning team: Barry
O'Connor (Glenbeigh) Siobhan O Concubhair (Gaeltacht), Mark O
Sullivan (Glenbeigh), Eabha Ring (Tralee), Shane McKenna (Glenbeigh)
and Michéal O Huallacháin (Gaeltacht).
The following Saturday, 26th January the County Championships
for U10 to U13 for boys and girls take place in Tralee and on
the 9th February the County Championships for U14, U15, U16 and
U17 for boys and girls takes place in Glenbeigh. All entries for
County Finals will have to be with the County Board by closing

on the day.
