WellKids
The WellKids programme will be running in the club again this July and August.
WellKids is an initiative introduced by Déise Óg which introduces children aged 4-6 to GAA activities in a fun games based approach.
So if your child was born in 2017, 2018 or 2019 then this is a great chance for them to try out GAA.
Where: AstroTurf in Abbeyside/Ballinacourty GAA grounds.
When: 10:30-11:30 on Saturday mornings for July and August.
Bring: A water bottle (labelled)
No extra equipment is needed but feel free to bring a hurley and helmet if you have them.
If you have any questions or your child is older and wants to try GAA then please email abbeycourtygaajuvenilesec@gmail.com
 
Camogie News
Another active week for the club!
 
This week our U8's had the honour of playing at half time in the SETU Arena during the Waterford vs Antrim Senior camogie game. Great excitement as the girls formed a guard of honour for the girls as they ran out onto the pitch. A great day was had by all, and a big thanks to Waterford camogie, the coaches, parents and guardians for helping to make it happen!
 
Huge congratulations to our own Dearbhla Beresford and Megan O’Regan representing Abbeyside on the team, well done girls and thank you for all the hurley and jersey signing after the game!
 









U15 Camogie
Well done also to Sophie Norris and Abbie ODonnell representing Abbeyside on the Waterford U15 camogie panel, keep up the great work!
