On Saturday 21st June Youghal GAA held their first Eochaill Óg Under 5/6/7 “Train with Me” where parents were invited to train alongside their child in what was a really fun day. Aidan Foley, Eochaill Óg club Coach, gave a demonstration to the parents on how to hold the hurley, swing and hit the sliotair. This was followed by a quick warm up and then drills to practice the learned skills. Matches were played, with parents versus kids and even though the parents fought hard, the kids came out on top with some lovely scores from both sides.
The day ended up with a huge tug of war, parents versus the kids and trainers and to the wonderment of the parents, who were genuinely trying their best, the kids won every time. Refreshments were served in the bar afterwards where delicious fruit cake was flying around and devoured by the coaches. All in all it was a terrific day and really enjoyable from both the parents and kids point of view
