Elphin GAA News update May 16th
It has been a quiet week on the playing fields.
U-16 Training continues on Fridays, all players are asked to be on the field for 7pm.
The Elphin-Ballinameen U-14s travelled to the Connacht GAA Centre, Bekan on Saturday morning where they took part in a training session with Ballyhaunis U-14s. This was followed by a tour of the Gym and a talk from two-time All-Ireland winner Ja Fallon, who spoke about Football in general and his own experiences. It was a brilliant day out, enjoyed by the players and coaches alike. They wish to thank the staff of the Connacht GAA Centre for such a warm welcome. The team is back in action on Thursday; away to St Dominics at 7:30pm.
U-10 Coaching continues on Saturday at 10am. Sunday's Go Games Blitz has been postponed as a number of the other teams are unavailable due to First Communion.
