Kenmare GAA (District Team)

Kenmare GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association district team in the Kenmare area, County Kerry, Ireland.[1] This district is situated in the south region of the county, and includes just one town, Kenmare. It is one of eight divisions of Kerry County Board. It organizes competitions for the clubs within the division, from Under 12 up to the adult level. The division selects football teams from the adult teams playing at intermediate and junior level, and these then compete for the Kerry Senior Football Championship. Hurling is the weaker sport in the division, without a district team and only two clubs, Kenmare Shamrocks and Kilgarvan fielding teams.
