Kerins O’Rahillys Summer Camp
Held recently in Healy Park Ballyrickard our Summer Camp was a huge success. The camp was free to all club members and just €20 to non members. Up to 140 children from the ages of 5 to 13 enjoyed a week of expert coaching and fun and even had some of their games refereed by none other than Barry John Keane. Well done to all involved. We are sure the children who attended will be talking about it for a while to come.
