TRANSATLANTIC KERRY

The SS St Louis was an emigrant ship that left Queenstown (Cobh) for New York in the 1930s. All Ireland winning GAA teams from around Ireland travelled aboard her to play exhibition games in the US, often training on deck in front of fellow passengers . Some players never returned home, preferring to stay and build new lives over there. 

Our TRANSATLANTIC KERRY jersey remembers Kerry GAA’s deep and unique friendship with New York City.
