In accordance with the announcement made by An Taoiseach Leo Varadkar TD the club will remained closed until Sunday April 19th inclusive. The clubhouse, bar, dressing rooms, gym, ball wall, and pitches are all closed so please do not come down to the pitch for any reason be that to walk around the pitch or to have a puck around, the pitches are closed. The club is closed to all recreational activity and we would ask that you respect this.

As always this is an ever changing situation so we will keep you all updated as best we can and the situation will be reviewed come April 19th. We would like to thank you all at this stage for your co-operation and support during these hard times.

However, you can keep active at home, there is loads of hurling and football challenges on social media and Peter Nash is posting daily videos with tips and skills for underage players so you can keep training at home!
