Juvenile Notes - 3rd October


World Record
Sunday Sept 30th saw 33 boys & girls from the Abbeyside GAA Club enter the Guinness World Record Books when they participated in the Largest Hurling Lesson which took place in Croke Park. The previous record stood at 577. Tickets scanned we entered the pitch with 40 plus clubs from around the country. The hooter sounded for the start of the record attempt, 20 drills and 30 minutes later the hooter ended the session. Back up to our seats in the Cusack Stand where we waited for the news, the record was smashed when the Guinness World Record adjudicator on the night announced that 1,772 kids trained all at the one time and for the 30 minutes required. Valid attempt and great excitement greeted the announcement, well worth the trip and a great day was had by all. Well done to all who helped make this a great memory for the boys & girls.
