Cover Pic: Summer camp's over for another year.
Some of our budding stars.
The Summer Camps have come to an end for this year and we are delighted to say they were a huge success. In total with the 5 camps combined we had a estimated 850 children. A lot of work went on in the background to make sure that both football and hurling skills were coached to the highest standard and of course great fun was had along the way. Special thanks to Naoise, Donagh and Anne for getting things up and running for all 5 camps. Thanks to Liam O'Cúlbaird for making sure our Campa Samhraidh 2022 was a great success again this year combining our games and Irish language. Again our young Helpers and Coaches did an amazing job and your hard work doesn't go unnoticed by all.
Thanks to all our Coaches and Helpers

U/16 Camogie
Our U16 camogie team had a super trip to Rathnure Co. Wexford last weekend. Saturday started off with a game against a strong St Annes team which was followed by a quiz that night. On Sunday all the girls had a training session run by Ger O'Connor, followed by team building games with both teams. The trip finished off with a hike up the Blackstairs Mountains. A great time was had by all.
U/15 Camogie
This week saw six of our U15's supporting our Camogie Minors for Championship on Sunday v Lucan, this meant we amazingly saw 3 sets of sisters playing together.
Well done to our U/15's who played with the Minor girls - Sophie McKeating, Niamh Barrett, Sophie Fearon, Ciara Barrett, Éabha Gargan & Aisling Cawley.
Three sets of Sisters: Abigail & Sophie McKeating; Niamh, Éabha & Ciara Barrett; Éabha and Keelagh Gargan.
