 Waterville club lost its second South Kerry Final over the Christmas period. The minors went down to a physically superior St Mary’s side on New Year’s Day. 
Ground conditions were ideal and both teams contributed to an entertaining contest.
Waterville, playing into the town goal, had the better of the early exchanges and took an early lead. Stephen O’Dwyer took a pass from cousin Barry in the second minute and opened the scoring.
It was Stephen again a minute later after a pass from Micheál Cronin and then Seán Cathal O’Sullivan kicked a pinpoint free from forty metres and sent his side into a three point lead.
