Last Saturday our U8 hurlers welcomed Kilmaley to Clooney for a mini-blitz.
Our three teams each played three 20 minute matches.
While the primary focus for our u8s is to develop strong ground hurling skills, we have started rising the ball and striking from the hand.
Each match started with 10 minutes ground hurling only, with rising and striking from the hand allowed for the second 10.
All the coaches agree that the boys’ skills are improving every day and we could see this demonstrated clearly in the matches with Kilmaley.
Well done to all the boys and thanks to Kilmaley for travelling to Clooney.
