WATCH: Limerick hurlers ‘Hit the Woah’ for Milford Hospice
Quick feet on and off the pitch: Cian Lynch
FORGET about the guests on the Late Late Show – everybody is wondering who will be the next three Limerick hurlers dancing tonight!
The Limerick senior and U-20 hurling panels are taking part in a “Hit the Woah for Milford Hospice” challenge to raise vital funds for Milford Care Centre. See Limerick GAA’s Twitter and Facebook pages for the videos.
For those of us of a certain age, “Hit the Woah” is a new viral dance craze that started on TikTok. It is when a dancer makes a quick, small circular motion with their fists and leans into a freeze position when the beat drops in a song.
Limerick captain Declan Hannon started the ball rolling on Thursday night by putting a new spin on the monotony of mowing the lawn.
