Ladies:
Corduff Ladies Gaelic Football club are delighted to announce details of an exciting new programme called Gaelic4Girls that is commencing on the 16th of April 2016. Gaelic4Girls is initially an 8 week programme aimed at increasing participation in Ladies Gaelic Football. The programme targets girls aged between 8-12years.
It is focuses on fun and participation, allowing girls to get an introduction to Ladies Gaelic Football in a non-competitive environment. It will be held on Corduff pitch every Saturday from 10am-11:30am commencing on the 16th of April. On completion of the programme, participants are presented with certificates and T-shirt for their participation. Following the 8weeks, the girls will be encouraged to register with our Ladies Football club. A Mini Blitz will also be held with another Gaelic4Girls site after the 8weeks and this is a major highlight of the programme.
This is the first Gaelic4Girls programme to be held in the area and all girls from the Corduff and surrounding areas are encouraged to attend and learn the basic skills of Ladies Gaelic Football. This is a great way to make new friends. The cost of the entire programme is only €8.
