Kerry have named their team to play Cork in the Munster Minor Football Championship Quarter-final on Tuesday at 7pm in Austin Stack Park, Tralee. The team is managed by Wayne Quillinan and will be captained by Quillinan’s Austin Stacks club mate Ben Murphy who lines out at midifeld, alongside Killian Dennehy from Keel.

Stacks have three players on the starting team, while An Ghaeltacht club mates Sean Ó Cuinn and Aodhna Ó Beaglaoich are both in the half back line.

The winner of Tuesday’s Kerry versus Cork quarter-final will play the loser of the Phase 1 Final between Clare and Tipperary (they play in Rathkeale on Tuesday evening), while the loser from Tralee will play the Phase 1 final winner. Both those semi-finals will be played on Tuesday, May 7, while the Munster final is scheduled for Monday, May 13 at 7.30pm at a venue to be confirmed.
