This week's photo comes from the mid 1980s and shows many underage hurlers at the club grounds. Lots of those pictured here went onto win juvenile and adult titles in subsequent years. Indeed now that their playing careers are over, some have taken to coaching the next generation of Abbeyside hurlers.
