Kerry preparing to hand over the keys to new Centre of Excellence

It has taken many years longer than it should to build a permanent home for Kerry GAA, so getting full value for their €8m Centre of Excellence is less a target than an imperative, writes Tony Leen.

When someone from Kerry hears a Cork man praise their “simple, common sense”, it’s usually time to assume the brace position.

Only that Paul Daly, the site manager for KPH Construction, main build contractors on Kerry’s new €7m GAA centre of excellence, isn’t joking.
