SPRING IS COMING....

Great article on this weekends game and Hurling in general.

"Because of the tight confines at Fenway Park, Galway and Dublin will play a modified version of the game called Super 11’s. Each team will have 11 players, instead of the standard 15. Scoring will be limited to the three-point goals. Single-point shots at the uprights will not count."

Alright people, I'm about to throw down some cash for the Dublin v. Galway match that's coming up at Fenway Park. Who's interested? Game is Sunday, November 22nd at 1:30pm. Fenway opens at 11am. The club would love to be represented by at least 5 uniformed Rebels. http://boston.redsox.mlb.com/bos/ticketing/irish_festival.jsp

HURLING FOR DUMMIES The O'Byrne Files contribution to the understanding of hurling

Evening all,
I wanted to make sure everyone knew of the event on the 14th. This will be open to the team exclusively and we will be attending as a club. Any prospects that want to be on the team might like to attend on this date as well, so they can get to know the team. Please keep reaching out the spreading the word so we can continue to gain momentum.

On another note, I'm brewing up a possible crowd funding source for us to advertise so we can get the club fund up and running and maybe have some loot to purchase/build some goals in the near future.

Details on both items talked about here can be obtained by attending practice or sending any of the officers a private message.

Cheers!

GSHC Practice Schedule: Tuesdays & Thursdays 5pm - 7pm, Saturdays 9am -11-am. @ Robbie Mills. If anyone wants to get together some other time, post it so you can get some others there with you. Make as many as you can. If you can make them all, you're one lucky bastard and I want your schedule!

We still need to find a home field big enough for Hurling; 130 meters x 80 meters, with parking.
