Members/supporters are asked to note that Sundays game will not be going ahead following a decision tonight of the Club Executive. The following is a copy of the notification sent to the East Kerry Board regarding the decision and stating the reasons for same.

Dear Dermot.

I am to inform you that at a meeting tonight of the Dr Crokes  Club Executive it was decided that we will not be participating in the scheduled O Donoghue Cup Semi Final versus Killarney Legion on Sunday next 19th November.

 We have taken this decision because of the close proximity of our game against Nemo Rangers in the final of the Munster Senior Club competition listed for Sunday 26th November. Please understand that we fully respect the status of the O Donoghue Cup but we feel that we should not involve ourselves in a game that may compromise our preparation for a Munster Final and our defence of our All Ireland title.

 This should not be misconstrued  as meaning that we are conceding the game to Killarney Legion and we would earnestly request that East Kerry CCC take all possible steps to re-schedule the game to a date after the Munster Final.
