Kerry Minor’s: Now that the dust has settled over the Kerry Minor Footballer’s outstanding win over Derry last week-end it is worth noting that three of the team were prominent members of Gneeveguilla Athletic Club. Patrick warren from Scrahanaville was one of the top cross country runners for many years, taking many medals in his time He was also an outstanding relay runner with the club. His sister Sinead is National Champion in The Discus & Hammer. His brother Shane is no bad athlete either, his mum Joan & dad Nealie are trojan workers in the club. Christopher O’ Donoghue from Clonkeen ran the first leg of our relay for many years and never left us down. His is son of Floray Kerry County Council & Marie of Rathmore Credit Union. Our third club member was the veer smiling Donal O Sullivan from Kilgarvan. Donal represented Kerry at The National Community Games finals on several occasions. Glory came to Donal & the u13 relay team in 2012 in Tullamore when the club won 5 in a row All Ireland National Titles. The team on that day were Cian McCarthy, Gary Cronin, Cathal Collins, Brian Murphy, Sean Doherty & Donal O Sullivan. Donal is son to mon Marie & dad Gabriel. We congratulate each of the lads and their families on a fantastic performance. The three lads were buzzing in Croke Park, easy to see the Athletics background in them.
