JUVENILE REGISTRATION 2017 Feb 10th
As the new year begins it’s time to start getting ready for the upcoming season and thoughts turn to returning to the pitches at St. John’s Park. Eddie Maher and his team have been busy with pitch maintenance throughout the off season so that every square inch of the facilities are pristine for the return of our young Gaels, and the welcoming of our new Gaels. The juvenile section is stocking up the equipment store and on Friday February the 10th at 7.30pm all boys and girls u6 to u12 from St. John’s Parish are invited to the club to register their intent for the season ahead with O’Loughlin Gaels GAA & Camogie Clubs. Full details are on the website and the club’s social media pages. There will be an opportunity to get photographs with the Tom Walsh Cup that the seniors hurlers collected after their County Final win, and no doubt aspire to do the same when they complete the new Player Pathway that the club have carefully tailored for its juvenile players. Keep the date free and keep a close eye on the website and here for more details.
