MAYO GAA players don't expect Kerry to be giving out many presents on next Saturday evening when they arrive in Tralee to play the locals in the National Football League.

But their manager, Jack O'Connor, was the recipient of a very nice present this week, and he received it from a proud Mayo man.

Divanes Volkswagen Motors in Castleisland have sponsored a Dublin registered all electric VW ID PRO for the Kerry manager and he received the keys of the motor from John Vahey, sales team member, who is a native of Brickens in Claremorris.

Jerome Flynn and John O'Leary, Technical Support at Divanes, were also pictured making the presentation at their base in Castleisland.

O'Connor will be hoping to halt Mayo's drive for a third success when the two sides meet in Austin Stack Park on Saturday evening.
