First Hurling drills of the year 🏑

11th Sep 2025

First Hurling drills of the year 🏑 Hurling – A True Irish Tradition! 🇮🇪

We are delighted to see our children learning the fundamental skills of hurling! 🏑✨ From striking and catching to teamwork and coordination, these sessions are giving them the perfect foundation for a sport that is fast, fun, and full of tradition. The smiles say it all – they’re having a great time while building skills for life! 💪😊

Hurling is one of the oldest field sports in the world, dating back over 3,000 years! Played with a hurley and a sliotar, it was enjoyed by ancient Irish warriors and is still a thrilling, fast-paced game today. 💨🔥
