There is no training Saturday 13th of August due to the fact that club will be participating in the 7-a-side tournament in Maastricht. We will have both a mens & ladies team making the 1,400km round trip this weekend. For a list of the rest of the years events see the Regional Tournament listing. Training will be back on as normal on Saturday 20th of August at 11am, and as usual everyone is welcome to come along and try a session.

A Parish Far from home

An interesting book about GAA in Europe, called “A parish far from home” by Philip O’Connor from Stockholm Gaels is due to be published in September and should be worth keeping an eye out for.

With a foreword by legendary Irish broadcaster Mícheal O Muircheartaigh, “A Parish Far From Home” tells the story of how a group of Irish ex-pats got together to play one of their native games – little did they know at the time that the Irish community in the Swedish capital would rally together like never before to support them as they set out on their first season to try to capture the Scandinavian championship.
