Tonight will see Kerry Under 20s face Waterford in the 1st round of the Munster Under 20 Championship and it will see two locals lads involved in David Mulvihill and Paudie Finucane. Both boys have been selected by Tomas O Se and his management team on the panel.
This is a special moment for the families of both men along with all in the parish of Tarbert to have two men involved in a county side.
Of course Tarbert will have a man involved in the minor side with Christian O Donnell named on that panel by Marc O Se earlier in the week. His Grandad won an All Ireland medal with Kerry so he will continue the family tradition of appearing in the famed green and gold jersey.
It is a big moment for those who coached all 3 lads at underage level both through development squads and the Tarbert underage sides. It shows those behind them what can be achieved by hard work and dedication.
In a week where we have been swept up by a lot going on nationally it is only right to we celebrate the achievement of the 3 boys and what their hard work and dedication has helped them achieve.
Tonight will see the 20s go into action in their quest to win Munster and All Ireland honours over the next few weeks. It will go in the blink of an eye, so enjoy the ride and go well to all 3 men, David and Paudie this evening and Christian will be action soon enough.
Well done to the families too whose dedication and sacrifices have been rewarded and never really get a mention. All the very best to all 3 lads over the next few weeks in the Green and Gold of Kerry….
