Ball-hopping go leor in Dingle as Dara Ó Cinnéide gears up for all-Ireland

Inter-gaeltacht friendly rivalries will be aired as Kerry face Donegal, writes Donal Hickey

A LOT of balls will be hopping on Irish language airwaves in the next fortnight, with former All-Ireland-winning captain Dara Ó Cinnéide, who broadcasts from the most westerly station in Europe, right in the thick of the action.

His day job is producer of the flagship An Saol ó Dheas programme on RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta, a daily magazine slot covering affairs in the Munster gaeltacht areas of Cork, Kerry and Waterford.
