County Minor
Congratulations to Asdees Oisin Healy of Tullahinell who has been selected on the County Minor Football panel for 2023.
No doubt Oisin has a truly magnificent football talent and certainly made a name for himself last year having been one of the top players that won County Minor Championship with North Kerry.
Certainly, Asdee have contributed several Minors to the Kerry panel down through the years; namely; Paud O Donoghue, Johnny Ryan, Dan Kissane Sheehy, John Kennedy.
Our last Kerry Minor Footballer representative was in 2007 with Eoin Kennedy who won a Munster Minor medal the previous year in 2006. So Oisin makes up the 16-year gap of being a Kerry minor Footballer from Asdee.
However, Oisin didn’t save all his skills for gaelic football as he was just as skilful with the caman. Played all his underage hurling with Ballyduff and having plenty success along the way.
Minor County Championship finals winning in 2021 and going down in the final in 2022. His Underage football was with Northern Gaels. Oisin is the type of player that could play in most positions but attack is where he has excelled.
Kerry minors play their opening game in the Electric Ireland Munster Championship on this Thursday May 11th at 7pm in Pairc Ui Chaoimh and we wish Oisin and his teammates and backroom staff the best of luck.
