Be Better Hurling Programme

Saturday kicked off our U14 Be Better Hurling Programme in St Malachy's High School in Castlewellan and we were joined by Paul Sheehan, Danny Toner and Eoghan Sands.

60 young hurlers from the clubs of Down were put through their paces by some of our Down Senior Players along with members of the Senior Hurling Management.

This programme will continue over the next few weeks.
