Focused Kelly gearing-up for a tough battle

TWO games against Kerry, one draw and one win.

For a newcomer like Cork’s Paddy Kelly, that’s the kind of learning curve that helps a man get his breath at inter-county level.

“Playing for Cork is a big challenge, but it’s a big plus to get through those two games,” says Kelly. “It gives you a lot of confidence – it’s a great experience to be part of a winning side against a team like Kerry. It’s definitely brought me on.”
