Páidí’s féile basks in his spirit and glorious sunshine

A legend lives on. He may be gone, but the unquenchable spirit of Páidí Ó Sé was everywhere during the annual football tournament that bears his name in his beloved West Kerry at the weekend.

Participants even thanked him for the clement weather that blessed the event, the biggest in its 24-year history.

“He wanted to make this the biggest féile peile and saw it as his contribution to The Gathering,” said his widow, Máire. “He put so much into it and was travelling somewhere every second day.”
