Received 20th June 2003

Several weeks ago I found myself in quest of information about Irish Football. To my surprise, I came upon an article in the "Kingdom" about Dr. Crokes honouring the 1903 Championship Team. In all honesty, it brought a tear to my eye. My grandfather Daniel McCarthy was a member of the 1903 and 1904 Championship Teams. I responded by e-mail and have since received correspondence from Eamonn Fitzgerald, Michael O'Sullivan. I have even received a letter from Mary McCarthy who is married to Patrick, a second cousin I have never had the pleasure of meeting. What a surprise to learn they still live in the house in which my grandfather was born. I have the 1903 and my brother has the 1904 medals. They are our proudest possessions. Our dream is to travel together to visit Kerry and watch some great football. I want to thank all who have responded. You have made my day!

In fact, if it's this good already in its first year, I shudder to think what the future holds in store for us!!!! I make use of the website to keep up with club news and in particular to book tee times for the golf outings. I thoroughly enjoy coming down to Killarney and meeting up with all the "old faces" .I am always telling other golfers about the fantastic facility available to me i.e. I can see the date, time and venue for the next outing, send an e-mail to reserve a tee time and then check the website before I come down to see who my playing partners are and what time I'm on the tee. Fantastic !!! I'm sure a huge amount of time and energy goes into keeping the website updated - but it's worth it all.

Received 24th April 2002                                                                                                           I would like to wish your club continued success with site and on the playing fields. I am  a
member of Kilmoyley hurling club and have followed the fortunes of the Crokes ever since
Fr Tom Looney was in Kilmoyley. He was here for several years and the Crokes were always top of his agenda. He still turns out to watch Kilmoyley hurling games and was praying for us in Lourdes on county hurling final day last September. I remember him speaking on Kerry radio about it. Certainly we needed all the prayers to end a 30 year
famine. I suppose Crokes would sympathise with us and long famines as I remember that Crokes ended a long run without success in the early 90s and went from strength to strength in football after that. We in Kilmoyley always enjoy our trips to Killarney, Kilgarvan and Kenmare for matches and always receive a great reception there. Sean O'Shea was an outstanding dual player from Crokes and hurled with Kerry for years. He is still hurling I believe. Football is yere number one game obviously but there is lot of people promoting hurling in Crokes and St Pats nowadays. I urge ye to continue doing so. My only concern would be that ye would get too good!!!! kerryman2@hotmail.com
