If you're passionate about hurling...
If the 2013 championship was one of the best things you've ever seen...
If you want to be a part of a club that welcomes new members at every turn...
If you want to be a part of a club that makes sure lads that love hurling get to play hurling...

We are...
Réalt Dearg Hurling Club fielding 3 Junior Hurling sides in Dublin. Since being founded in November 2009 in Terenure we have gone from barely having 15 bodies to having two teams in cup, league, Leinster league and Championship in 2013. Now in 2014 we are introducing a third team for the first time and we'd like to think the rapid growth in playing numbers is a reflection of how enjoyable hurling with the club is. As this is our first year with three teams, there will ample opportunities for new players to get game time right from the start.
The club has been very competitive in its first 4 years of competing (4 county championship semi finals & one league final defeat) and after several near misses there is a determination to go one better and capture the club's first trophy this year.

Traditionally in GAA there is a large drop off after minor and lads often live to regret this but find it hard to go back. 
We have a large number of players who, for whatever reason, put the hurleys away but never lost the love of the game. We would like to give those lads a route back into the game and also in the long term to establish ourselves as a part of the community in Terenure and the surrounding areas.
We aim to get our teams up the divisions as fast as we can but also to always enter a team in Junior F for lads who have been out of hurling a while or for those who are taking up the sport for the first time.

You can find us...
Most of the year we train in Terenure (Bushy Park or VEC ground), typically twice per week on weekday evenings. Until the end of March training will take place on a floodlit astro pitch in Stepaside. New players are welcome at any stage. We also have a couple of nights out scheduled early in the year to help welcome new players into the club.
