DADS AND LADS

Dads and Lads is a social football and hurling programme for those keen to enjoy Gaelic games outside the traditiona­l competitiv­e structures of the GAA.

The philosophy of GAA for Dads & Lads is all about participat­ion and the camaraderi­e that only team sports can offer. The small-sided adapted games allow for incidental contact only (to minimise any risk of injury) so skills are to the fore over physicalit­y. The games are self-governed – no referees.

We recently started a Dads and Lads football and hurling group in Glenville and it has proved a great success so far, with numbers increasing every night. It’s open to all and no previous experience of playing football is required.

To sign up, or for more details contact John O’Connor our PRO on 085 -7102290.
