U8s PLAY CROKE PARK
What a day for our young stars as the U8s took full advantage of Leinster GAA's invitation to an Activity Day at Croke Park. Over 30 of O'Loughlin Gaels best set off from St. John's Park on Tuesday afternoon accompanied by mentors, Brendan O'Leary and Brian Fox and a host of equally excited parents. It was a day for big kids as well as small kids and a full report and photographs is on our website http://www.oloughlingaels.gaa.ie/u8-team-news/leinster-gaa-activity-day-at-croke-park
EGGHUNT & SOCIAL EVENING
It has been descrbed as "one of the greatest social evenings in the club's history".... "an old fashioned community event that will live long in the memory"...with one little girl announcing that.. "this was the best day of her life!" (wait until she wins a camogie county final with O'Loughlin Gaels!).. However you describe it, it can safely be said that this was truly an Eggstraordinary event organised by the O'Loughlin Gaels GAA & Camogie Juvenile Clubs. From 6pm registration commenced and they came from all over the St. John's Community in their dozens descending upon St. John's Park no doubt drawn by the waft of BBQ in the air. U6 coach and event maker Stephen McCormack and his team were busy flipping up to 400 burgers to be served throughout the evening. 300 players…even more family members and friends enjoyed a spEGGtacle that former chairman Luke Roche described as the best sight he’s ever seen during his long association with O’Loughlin Gaels GAA – 300 happy faces as they sprinted the length of the main pitch to retrieve their well earned reward – a chocolate easter egg. They had previously played out an evening blitz that had all the drama, skill and comradarie we’ve come to expect from out national game. There’s a full report and pictures included on our website at http://www.oloughlingaels.gaa.ie/social
