The playing fields in Larchfield and Pairc Sheamuis Stiophain, along with St Kieran’s College, were a hive of activity on Sunday morning as the under-age structures from under-8 to under-13 hosted visits from Dublin clubs, St Brigid’s, Westmanstown Gaels and Kilmacud Crokes for what was a feast of juvenile hurling.
The hurling was of a very high standard and at each venue refreshments were served to all the visiting teams before they headed off to UPMC Nowlan Park for the national league fixture between Dublin and Kilkenny.
Later in the day, four games between the Kilmacud Crokes and James Stephens panels were played and enjoyed by the large attendance at half-time in Nowlan Park.
No doubt it was a great occasion and one that will live in the memory of the young stars as they displayed their skills in front of an appreciative attendance.
The busy weekend actually started on Saturday when the Cuala GAA club brought their juvenile hurling panel for a friendly fixture against the young Village stars.
Special thanks went to all the club team mentors, club officials, parents and guardians who helped in different ways to make the weekend a great success.
