Hi all,
I would like to invite your club the opportunity to play in Croke Park in an event organised specifically for U12 Club teams. On Tuesday, April 6th Antrim Clubs have been allocated an hour and a half to participate in U12 Go Games Blitzes for both hurling and football on Croke Parks pitch. To avail of this fantastic opportunity please read the guidelines below and how to enter:
Guidelines:
11-a-side blitz with teams guaranteed 2 or more matches. A maximum squad of 13 players of which must contain a ball person and a referee (the referee and ball person can also be players and you can rotate these roles)
Clubs can enter one football team and one hurling team (each team has to have unique players i.e. one child is not allowed to play in both the football and hurling blitzes). If your club has more than one team, please indicate how many. If I dont have enough entries i.e. 16 teams, we will contact you to invite a second team.
There will be 8 football teams and 8 hurling teams participating. If I get more than 16 entries, the teams will be drawn from a hat (random selection)
NB Clubs are responsible for providing transport to and from Croke Park, food & water and the behaviour of the players on the day.
Parents/Spectators are also invited to come and support their club/child.
Teams are to report to Croke Park for registration at 10.45am. The blitz will run from 11.15am to 12.45pm and there will be a stadium tour at 1pm approx for players and mentors only. Parents/Spectators unfortunately will have to organise a separate tour, this is due to the high number of players/mentors on the tour already.
How to Enter please complete the following and return to Ciara.ferry.gamesmanager.antrim@gaa.ie by 12pm Tuesday, 30th March.
