Sligo
u8/u10 hurling format for 2015
The
underage hurling time frame will run from June to the first week in August when
the finals will be held in Markievicz park.
This year
Sligo Coaching and Games are running a pilot programme where we are training new
young hurling coaches that will be calling to clubs for 12 weeks where they
will be helping the club develop skills and help energize the young talented
kids in your club.
This year
Sligo Coaching and Games hopes to have one week where the kids play matches
among other clubs in a blitz format and the next week where the clubs will be
trained by the young coaches that will visit your club. Two coaches will visit
your club.
There will
be two groups
Group 1 Group2
Tubbercurry
Naomh
Eoin
Easkey /St.Farnan’s Calry/St
Josephs
Castleconnor
Drumcliffe/Rossespoint
Tourlestrane
Coolera/Strandhill
Each team
will play each other in their group. By the end of the group stages the top
team from each group will play each other in Markievicz Park
with second play second and so on. The week in between the blitz days the
coaches will attend your club session to help and support your club.
Note; every
club from each group will host the blitz evening. The club name at the top of
the sheet will host first and then the second club and so on.
If you have
any problems with pitches the Sligo Centre of Excellences (Scarden) is another
alternative but booking it in advance is required.
