CIARRAÍ V GAILLIMH
SRAITH ALLIANZ 2021 Allianz Football League Roinn 1 South BABHTA 1 CIARRAÍ v GAILLIMH IONAD: Páirc Aibhistín De Staic, Trá Lí Dé Satharn, 15ú Bealtaine 2021 www.kerrygaa.ie TOSNÚ: 15:00 • RÉITEOIR: Conor Lane (Corcaigh) 2 Fáiltiú an Chathaoirligh A Chairde Uilig, Tá Fíor Chaoin fáilte romhaibh go léir go Páirc Aibhistín de Staic, Trá Lí tráthnóna inniu chuig an céad cluiche Allianz Sráid Peil 2021 idir An Gallimh, ár gCuarteoirí agus Ciarraí. Tá súil agam go mbainfidh sibh an taitneamh as an cluiche seo inniu. I wish to extend a warm welcome to all the players, Management teams and officials along to Austin Stack Park, Tralee today. Unfortunately, we won’t have any supporters for this year’s League campaign but all going well, by Championship time a limited number of supporters will hopefully be allowed attend the games. Galway travel to Kerry today for their first competitive match since last year’s Connacht championship defeat to near neighbours Mayo and Kerry are in a similar position with this being their first competitive match since last November’s Munster Championship loss to Cork at Páirc Uí Chaoimh. Today is a very important game for both teams but Kerry in particular will be hoping to pull off a win at home. Given the long lay off and the compressed nature of this year’s competition, it is difficult to predict how the league will unfold for Counties this year. The condensed nature of the League will I believe prove very challenging for all Counties in the prevention and management of injuries which will be a key consideration. -

It is intended as a short briefing on the functioning of the Dáil and a simple explanation of specific areas that may be of interest to people operating in the community/NGO sector in attempting to make the best use of the Dáil. This briefing document is produced as a result of the EAPN Focus on Poverty in Ireland project, which started in December 2006. This project aimed to raise awareness of poverty and put poverty reduction at the top of the political agenda, while also promoting understanding and involvement in the social inclusion process among people experiencing poverty. This Guide is intended as an accompanying document to the EAPN Guide to Understanding and Engaging with the European Union. The overall aim in producing these two guides is to inform people working in the community and voluntary sector of how to engage with the Irish Parliament and the European Union in influencing policy and voicing their concerns about poverty and social inclusion issues. -

We are delighted to give you free access to this digital programme which will keep you informed on team news as you watch this weekend’s two semi-finals in the Garvey’s Senior Football Championship. It is difficult for people to stay away from games particularly when it comes to the Garvey’s Senior Football Championship. However Kerry GAA has endeavoured to provide opportunities for you to support your team through using a range of media platforms. We are delighted that TG4 are in a position to bring you live coverage of Friday’s game and Saturday’s game can also be enjoyed from the comfort of your home as it is available to stream on the Kerry GAA website. I wish the players and management from all four teams the very best of luck this weekend. It is challenging to play such an important game in an empty stadium but the reward of bringing the Bishop Moynihan home is invaluable. I wish to sincerely thank the Garvey Group for their continued sponsorship of this great Championship. We have had some great games already in the Championship and these two semi-finals will be hard to call with evenly matched teams involved.
