“One always wants to come out on top in a local fixture like this,” says Templenoe manager John Rice.

Templenoe host Kenmare in the second round of the Kerry club football championship on Friday evening. Throw-in is 7pm and there will be history made when proceedings get underway, this being the first time the two neighbours have met in a senior championship fixture.

According to Templenoe manager John Rice, this game also represents the first time they have crossed paths since 2016.
