The club sympathises with Murty McEllistrim and his family following the death of Murty’s wife Carmel last week. Carmel kept all the pictures; paper cuttings etc of the Handball Club during the years that Murty and Roundy and later Shamie played handball. She was always willing to lend the archive material to us when needed and was always delighted to get it back. But for her work in keeping and storing the material we would not have all the photos and paper cuttings that we have used during the past number of years. She was very proud of her family’s involvement and very generous and welcoming when we called for something we needed down through the years. We will miss her. May she rest in peace.

In the Ladies Junior Singles All Ireland Final Tracey Flyte (Donegal ) defeated Sharon Daly (Ballymacelligott) in the ladies Junior Singles All Ireland 21/20, 21/4. The game was played in Curraghboy, Co. Roscommon yesterday.

Six Ballymacelligott players represented Munster on Saturday last when they defeated Leinster in the ladies inter provincial team of ten. The final score was 210/68. This was the first 60 x 30 game of the season for Kerry players and they got off to a very good start. Well done to our girls who once again played very well and brought six more All Ireland medals to the club. The club team members as follows:
Sharon Twomey, Brenda Carmody, Ashley Prendiville, Sandy McSwiney Maria Daly and Catriona Casey (Ballymac)
