Billy Dennehy: Fully amateur Kerry FC not fearful of competititon with GAA

Dennehy does not subscribe to the view that Kerry is a GAA county and that soccer will struggle to attract fans to come and watch League of Ireland football. 

NEW ERA: A general view of Mounthawk Park. Inset: The Kerry FC crest.

Kerry FC Sporting Director Billy Dennehy spoke of his delight that his dream of bringing League of Ireland football to Kerry has finally been given the green light.

The Mounthawk Park-based outfit’s application for a license to participate was granted by the FAI on Wednesday after a six-month process.
