Kerry Football Club have announced a new initiative which will allow their supporters to travel the the country to away games free of charge for the 2025 SSE Airtricity Men’s First Division season.

In a statement, the club wrote: "With 18 league games away from home, the club understands the dedication it takes for our loyal supporters to travel to far-strung reaches of Ireland to roar on the Kingdom in action.

"As a club, we hope that by absorbing the cost of coach travel, fans will be able to enjoy an away day with friends and family for minimal expense. The coaches will depart Mounthawk Park on the day of the game, providing pick-ups along the bus route and drop-offs on return runs back home after the final whistle as well. Kerry FC are proud of the support we receive both here at home and on the road, and we hope to see full busloads of supporters cheering on the new look squad throughout the 2025 campaign.

Speaking after the announcement, Kerry FC CEO Billy Dennehy said, “We are thrilled to announce this new club-led initiative to our loyal, dedicated and passionate supporters. I know we are living in a world where the cost of living is constantly on the rise, so we hope the free travel will be welcomed by a large number of the Mounthawk faithful. We look forward to seeing more and more green on the away terraces around the country, and I know you will all do your best to roar the team on to victory, both home and away, in 2025” 

The first free supporters bus will travel to St. Colman’s Park for the opening road trip of the 2025 season. The game takes place next Friday evening, February 21st with kick-off in Cobh at 19:45.
