Underage Hurling Helmets: We urgently require unwanted and nolonger used underage Hurling Helmets for an upcoming School Project. The club hopes to work with schools in the Parish to nourish the game of Hurling and encourage those who would just like to try the game. To achieve this we need to supplement the Hurling Helmets already in the possession of our schools. These Helmets will be for the sole use of the pupils during school hours and your generosity would be greatly appreciated.  If you can assist could you please contact Seamus or any club committee member.
