welcome the young footballers and their parents from North London Shamrocks GAA
club to our club where they will play in tournament games against St Johns and
a number of other clubs from Sligo, Leitrim and Mayo at age groups U9, U11, U13
and U14. These games will take place in Stenson Park, Cuilbeg and in Cleveragh.
This is a major undertaking for our club but we are confident that our members
will come up trumps as usual.
