Under 6 GAA !!

[Gnevin]

My nephews 5 and 3.5 are playing both hurling and gaelic football with the club....not in teams yet of course though

No doubt the younger lad has more ability than the 5 year old if he'd only stay away from the Farleys Rusks.

Reminds me of a story from a few years back. One of our teams reserve players was working with one of the senior players. The reserve player was saying that he found training a bit tough and hadn't the legs for matches. The senior player thought he would wind him up and said that before each training session he ate 3 Farleys Rusks. The reserve play sucked it in but the snior player thought nothing more of it. Then a few weeks later the reserve player asked the senior player had he any bother having a crap and he hadn't shit in weeks!! Cue massive roars of laugher from senior player and every person at training being told the story. The dumb cub had actually went out and bought farleys Rusks and was eating them dry before training.

Help out with the U6's myself, the difference in size and development between P1's and P2's can be huge, we tend to keep them apart - games tend to be a waste of time too, we mostly paly 'tig' to wrap up.
