2. Clothes to change into after the games
3. Packed Lunch for the day (there will be no food provided).
I have arranged enough people to help out on the day, so parents or people from the local club wishing to attend will have to make their own way up to Croke Park. There will be no parking available for spectators in Croke Park, all spectators are therfore asked to park behind the Croke Park Hotel.
Spectators are not permitted onto the Croke Park pitch at any time and will be restricted to the spectator accmmodation in the stands only. Photographs can be taken from the stand opportunities for photos will take place immediately after the blitz.
CAN I ASK THAT YOU CHECK THE NAMES OF THE PLAYERS FROM YOUR CLUB THAT ARE DUE TO ATTEND THE ACTIVITY DAY & FOR WHATEVER REASON THEY CANNOT ATTEND PLEASE GET IN TOUCH ASAP.
