Kellogg’s GAA Cúl camps
This year there are some exciting changes to the kit, with a stylish new half zip top and T-shirt replacing the original jersey, togs & socks. The backpack is still part of the new kit, while the cost of attending the camps remains the same as the last number of years. On-line registration is now available and we would encourage parents to use this method of registration if convenient as it greatly helps with assigning coaches etc to the camps. Standard application forms will be available through the schools from next week.
The following are the dates and venues for the Kellogg’s GAA Cúl camps 2015 in Leitrim.
W/C – 06/07/2015 – Manorhamilton, Ck-on-Shannon, Ballinamore & Mohill

2015 U14 County academy trials
The first of our Trials for this year’s U14 County talent academy took place in Drumkeerin GAA centre on Friday last. 37 boys took part and we would like to thank each and every one of them for having the interest to attend.

Only players born in 2001 are eligible for the 2015 academy.
National Football blitz day
Our U15 squad had a good day in Longford on Saturday last in the first of this year’s National blitz. Our first game against Sligo was a very one sided affair with Leitrim winning easily. The second game of the day against Louth proved to be a very competitive game with Leitrim winning by six points at the final whistle. Well done to all the lads.
Primary school blitz
Our 3rd & 4th class Primary school blitz have been badly hit by the poor weather over the past two weeks. Blitz have taken place in Aughavas, Gortletteragh, Drumkeerin and Ballinamore, but we were forced to cancel the blitz planned for Dromahair, Drumshanbo & Carrick. We will try and reschedule over the next few weeks.
Hurling blitz
This year’s U8,10 & 12 hurling blitz will commence on Wednesday May 27th at 7pm in St. Mary’s GAA grounds Ck-on-Shannon. All clubs are asked to confirm in advance what numbers at each age level will be attending.
