Making a lasting impression

It’s the stepping stone. The launch pad. The shout to the top.

The Allianz Football League has been called a lot of less complimentary things down through the years but never has it been more influential in elevating, grooming and developing players.

Of course, it wasn’t always that way. Kerry’s Declan Quill would testify to that. The Kerins O’Rahillys man lit up the league for Kerry in the early to mid-Noughties only to drop off the radar come championship time.
