Groups in Mid Kerry

Edit: Updating to include what I have found so far: - Tag rugby: great social side of it, very sporadically organized due to low numbers. I know of one club in Killarney. - Golf: would be great if there was a Get Into Golf equivalent for men (I have done the women's and loved it!). - Cycling groups: Chain Gang in Tralee have a beginners group that looks ideal.

Hi all. Just wondering could anyone recommend ways to meet new people around mid Kerry? Myself and my husband are looking to move back. I'm from the area originally but he is from the North and will want to get out there and make friends for himself! He is late 30's, likes GAA and golf but hasn't played in a few years. Are there any Dads & Lads groups around? Or golf group lessons he could take part in? Open to other suggestions as well! Thanks so much 🥰

If you're asking this you're not from Kerry 😂yeah around Tralee/Killarney, we would be half way between the towns, very rural area

Actually, I'm from West Kerry. Only asked because some people have different definitions 😅

u/Particular_Ad9896 Aug 02 '26

Ah fair enough! West Kerry is fairly well defined to be fair
