U-15’s In Portlaoise

Our under 15 squad will surely sleep soundly tonight after an action-packed enjoyable day in Laois today. Firstly, the lads had a great morning in Bogathon adventure centre before travelling onto Portlaoise to cheer on the Waterford hurlers. They were delighted to get their photo with Man of the Match our own Neil Montgomery after the game. We thank the team mentors for all the work they put into organising the day, which no doubt the lads thoroughly enjoyed.

Academy 2023

The end of February always marks a key time in the club calendar because it's when our juvenile academy starts up. This means that Saturday mornings at the field will be full of fun and games for our youngest hurlers and footballers.
The 2023 academy starts on Saturday 25th February, and we cater for boys aged from 5 to 10 who would like to get active and build friendships in a safe, inclusive, team environment.
The start times are as follows: U8, U9 & U10 start at 10:00AM and U5, U6 & U7 start at 10:30AM.
The year kicks off with football so make sure the boys have their gumshields.
Newcomers of all ages are always welcome throughout the season so be sure to come out and sample the fun and there'll be a cup of tea for parents.
If you have any questions, you can email abbeycourtyjuvenilesec@gmail.com
