Just wanted to wish the 4 Kerry teams the best of luck in Feile starting the 23rd of June. Those who have qualified from Kerry are Austin Stacks ( taking part in elite Feile ), Na Gaeil ( taking part in division 2 Feile ), Ardfert ( division 5 ) and Currow ( division 10 ). Hope they all have fun and perform well.

Stacks are a very serious team at this age group, they seem to be able to get the the best of lads in town at the moment, lads who started with other clubs , feile is huge for them

But this Feile team tend to mostly rely on 4 or 5 very good fellas down the centre. |

Interesting to see ardfert ( Feile C winners ) have beaten Na Gaeil (Feile B winners) twice now ( and comprehensively too! ) when both teams were at their strongest and going fully. They beat them 4-14 to 1-08 in the county league division 2 and 2-16 to 1-07 in the central league division 1. Should mean Ardfert have a mighty chance at division 5 Feile!

How is the grading for the Feile done.

How is the grading for the Feile done. Don't thing there is anything scientific to it. Just based on the divisions I suppose. They are always a bit strange though. For example div 2 Ardfert were in Feile C while division 4 Firies were in Feile B this year. |

How is the grading for the Feile done. I queried this with county board and was told that Divisions 1, 2 & 3 were spread between A & B in Féile competitions with 4, 5 & 6 in C - how Ardfert got to play in C is a mystery given that they were in Division 2 ! |

I know here in Dublin teams can look to play in a higher or lower Feile category than they would ordinarily play based on their league status. Some clubs think they should play in Division 1 Feile even though they are a Division 2 standard and usually get hammered. But they think they should be competing with the big boys (or girls in my teams case). whereas some teams look to drop down to a lower division to give themselves a better chance of winning their Feile Division. Winning a Feile Division that you are clearly too strong for is only fooling yourself. Feile in Dublin became a joke a few years back with one club bringing their club off on a training camp courtesy of their benefactor. That practice had to be outlawed and quite rightly so.

Just to answer my own question- this is stacks 5th time in a row playing in the elite feile- that's some record.

Stacks a won Feile two years ago but it wasn't "National Feile" as the "Elite Feile" was held in Mallow with the eight top counties sending their A Champions. Stacks won the B Championship in Kerry that year. IIRC it was Crokes that won Kerry Feile that year and went to the one day Championship. |

I see there were ructions at the feile finals today. Some sort of a sit down protest over points waved wide or not awarded.
Feile is an under 14 competition.
From my experience of Feile over the last few years I am comimg to the conclusion that it should be seriously looked at. It is being treated like the All Ireland. Its an under 14 blitz for jaysus sake.
Some people really should take a step back and have a good look at themselves. The behaviour of some mentors and parents that I have seen has been incredible.

The behaviour of some mentors and parents that I have seen has been incredible. there is a nasty element to GAA and sport in general, throughout Ireland and majority of this is down to the behaviour of parents and "managers". GAA needs alot of learning, competitiveness that young is not good for the kids. i seen a game a few weeks ago where a team was 19 points up and 4 or 5 subs were never even put on, the manager was so obsessed with winning they didnt "risk" making changes when the game was clearly won. |

Kerry do not get a team into hurling regional Feile. Kenmare/Kilgarvan who won Feile A in Kerry competed in division 2. Crotta did not qualify. |

This is how the Kerry teams fared. Austin Stacks reached the semi final of regional Feile but to narrowly lose out in extra time. Na Gaeil lost in the division 2 Shield semi final. Ardfert were unlucky in the quarter final of the division 5 cup to the eventual winners. Finally Currow were successful in division 10.

From the Kerry Coiste na nÓg Notes
GAA Féile na nÓg
Austin Stacks (Division One)
Stacks had a very comfortable win over St. Eunans (Donegal) in their opening game, winning out by 8-7 to 0-1. Their goal-scoring prowess came to the fore again against Skerries (Dublin), for a 4-5 to 0-10 victory. That put them into a semi-final as group winners but they lost out in a superb game to Rossa Gaels by 3-9 to 3-6.
Na Gaeil (Division Two)
Na Gaeil played very well, but were unlucky to go down by 3-6 to 3-4 against London and then 2-7 to 2-3 to Bailieborough. They beat Butlersbridge by 0-9 to 1-2 to reach the semi-final of the Division Two Shield, but lost out by 3-5 to 1-6 to Ballyhaise.
Ardfert (Division Five)
Ardfert lost out by 3-8 to 1-10 in their opener against Buttevant but recovered to beat Mullahoran by 4-3 to 3-4 in a cracker and beat Castlerahan by 4-7 to 0-2 to qualify for the Cup. They went down to Dicksboro by 2-6 to 0-5 in the Cup quarter-final.
Currow (Division Ten)
Currow beat Lámh Dhearg by 3-12 to 0-1 to 1-4 to make a flying start. Next up was Ballybay Pearse Brothers and Currow won even more convincingly by 4-14 to 0-1. Derrynoose Blues were up next and went down by 1-8 to 1-4.
That saw Currow qualify comfortably for the quarter-final against Grangemolvin of Kildare, and Currow won a great game by 1-9 to 2-4. They met Sean Mac Cumhaills of Donegal in the semi-final and notched up another strong tally of 3-9 while conceding just 1-1.
That made for great excitement as they went to the final, all vibrant colour and noise, and it paid off in spades as a talented Currow side lifted the cup after beating Clann na Banna of Down by 2-10 to 0-5 for a historic victory.
Of course, the fixtures and results are not the point of Féile. Much more important is the fact that young players got to make loads of new friends and have a great time. Míle buíochas to the players, mentors, supporters, and the wonderful hosts of all teams.

Ballymac also competed in the "Munster regional Feile". Neither qualified through any means or got to final of Feile qualifying. Does anyone know about this? |
