Louise Ní Mhuircheartaigh: 'We had no English at all until we were about five'

Thirteen seasons into her Kerry senior career and Louise Ní Mhuircheartaigh's appetite for scores, and success, remains as powerful as ever.

Her primary objective is to lead Kerry to victory tomorrow when they host Tyrone in their fourth Lidl NFL outing of the season, and if this one goes like the first three, Kerry will be well on the road to a second Division 2 final in a row. Their unbeaten start to 2020 has seen Ní Mhuircheartaigh score 5-7 in the wins against Cavan, Wexford and Armagh. Tomorrow’s game in Fitzgerald Stadium (11am) is the opening act of an attractive doubleheader with the Kerry and Meath men’s teams, and 28-year-old Ní Mhuircheartaigh says they are keen to impress.
