NA GAEIL U8

Well done to all our U-8 players who have been part of our team since the start of the year.

They started their season with indoor skills in the Tralee Sports Complex on Sundays in January and moved outdoors in March.

We played in the town blitzes fielding 3 teams and also started training on Thursdays in May.

We had games every second Sunday and played over 12 different teams during the season.

The under 8s skills improved immensely during the year after 55 sessions in total between training and games, all done with loads of fun and enjoyment.

The players & parents would like to thank sincerely all our coaches especially Barry O’Donoghue, Ger Doyle and JJ Canty.

So if you were born in 2007 or 2008 why not join us in the Tralee Sports Complex in January or outdoors in Na Gaeil from March. There might even be delicious iced buns after Sunday trainings.
