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.

Standard application forms will be available through the schools from next week.

County HurlingLory Meagher Cup Leitrim v Lancashire
Following last weekend’s victorious trip to Birmingham, where the Leitrim Hurlers had a great victory over Warwickshire, it’s back to home soil again tomorrow as the lads face Lancashire in Ballinamore with a 2.30pm throw in.
Buoyed up by last week’s result we are hopeful of a home victory which would set up nicely a final round match on Saturday 23rd in Enniskillen versus Fermanagh.
In any event it’s one day at a time and for the moment let’s wish the team and management the very best of luck in tomorrow’s encounter.
Liatroim Abú.
