u10 Hurlers:
Our under 10 hurlers travelled up to Athenry on Saturday to take on the hosts. After a great hours hurling and being well looked after by the host club, it was onto Killaloe Waterpark for more fun and games. A great day was had by all the boys. Thanks for all the coaches for organising this.

U5 Hurling and Football:
The incoming u5 Hurling and Football (boys born in 2018) will be starting up in September. Dates are to be confirmed but generally it starts a few weeks after school commences. Trainings will take place at the hurling wall on Fridays from 6-7pm. The trainings will be half hurling and half football with the focus on fun, games and inclusion. We are inviting any parents who would like to get involved in a coaching capacity to make contact to be added to the coaching group. So far we have a group of 4 assembled but ideally a coaching group in the region of 10-12 is ideal. Its best to split young kids of this age into small groups with 2 coaches per group to ensure plenty of care and attention.
Please contact either Dave O’Shea 087 2909330 or Eddie Cosgrave 086 2535363 if you are interested in being added to the group.
