Hurling Academy

 St Colmcilles Hurling & Camogie training runs every Monday throughout the season (with the exception of bank holidays) until late October on the top pitch in Piltown. Here, we engage the children with games based activities which encourage fun and participation. The children will be given the basic skills to encourage their growth in the game and opening the world of hurling and camogie to them.

This is the best sport in the world and participation in it will enhance resilience, improve hand eye coordination and see the children engage in a sport others only envy.

  • Our ‘Smallies’ (Children born in the years 2020/2019/2018) train from 6pm to 6.45pm

  • 2017 children train from 6pm to 6.45pm (both hurling and camogie)

  • 2016/15 children train 6.45pm to 7.45pm (both hurling and camogie)

  • 2012/11 Boys train 8pm to 9pm (hurling only)

Gear

All players are required to wear a helmet to training and have their own hurley. The club however do have spare equipment for new players looking to come and try out for the first time. While not mandatory we would strongly advise younger players wear shingaurds.

We always welcome new players as we continue to grow hurling and camogie within St Colmcilles.
