We look forward to the Lee Strand Football (one-day) U14 Tournament (boys born in 2010 or 2011). The games will take place on Saturday September 14th. Trial games will determine who makes the panel! It’ll have to be the best possible Austin Stack Club U14 team. Keep an eye out for group messages for details of training. (Ger Hobbert)
PEIL FAOI 15:
(i) We are delighted that our Division 1 boys, tar éis dóibh buachaint ar an nGaeltacht, have qualified for another final…their 2nd of the season…but, as the County District Competition for the U15 boys is underway, there will be a delay in playing the final. This final is expected to be played in mid-September. We will continue planning, building, working and training for this important match will have extra training sessions for the group on Sundays. Please keep an eye out for group information messages. Also…now is the time to continue putting in the ‘solo miles’ to help maintain fitness and skill levels! Yes, boys, let’s try to stay fit and injury free for the final. With the bit between the teeth, we hope to be ahead at Becher’s Brook and all the way to the final final whistle! Opposition: Na Gaeil. Up The Rock!
