Scór na bPáistí

In total 189 children took part in the Lee Strand  Scór na bPáistí County Finals in The Tintéan Theatre Ballybunon on Sunday last. The fabulous venue vibrated with the excitement and energy brought by all the participants who all attend Primary school. All the children were a credit to their clubs, parents and mentors and were a joy to watch all day.

Donal Daly Kerry  Games Manager presented Coiste Scór Chiarraí with a fabulous Coaching Kit as a prize. This prize was raffled in a confined draw among all the participants on the day. The winner was Alison Moynihan from Kilcummin: This prize will be presented to Scoil Átha na mBláth, Killarney  during the week when the local GDA Vince Cooper  will call to the school and present the prize.

Áine Ní Shiocháin was an excellent Bean an Tí and ensured the whole day went on without a glitch.

Jackie Walsh Vice Chairman of Scór thanked everyone who was involved during the day. He especially thanked Lee Strand for sponsoring the competition, the Tintéan Theatre for hosting the days activities, the judges, Donal Daly from Kerry Coaching & Games  and Coiste Scór Chiarraí especially Anita English our former Runaí who did Trojan work on the day.

Each and every child performed to the best of their ability and the overall show was electric. The competent Judges on the day had the tough job of picking a winner and runner up. The day got off to an early start with the Quiz opening the proceedings and at the end of a titanic battle it was Tuosist who were crowned winners. However there was a tie for second place between Na Gaeil and Kilcummin with the latter taking second spot. It was a special day for the Valentia Club representing the South Kerry Football Board when they scooped the Ballad Group and came second in the Instrumental Music and to add to a memorable occasion for the Club their Scor Officer John Daly accepted the Siobhain Cotter Memorial Shield for the best overall Club on the day.
