How Often Do You Play?
It varies by team, but typically we play between 1 and 3 times per week. With our peak being one scrimmage and two practices per week.
Many of our members also play on the competitive club teams which travel to play other regional and National clubs about 2-3 long weekends per year.
What equipment do I need and where can I get it?
For all sports the first thing you need is some proper footwear. All weather soccer cleats tend to work best for all sports, but Lacrosse, and American Football cleats can work as well. Avoid cleats with metal studs.
For Hurling and Camogie you will need a hurl, a helmet with a facemask, and a sliothar. When you start out we will have some extras to loan, out and some equipment available for purchase. If you are interested in purchasing your own equipment you can buy online and have equipment shipped to you
O'Neills,
Mycro, and
Marc are some of the most trusted gaelic brands
It varies depending on the sports you play and the level you play, and how much you travel.
• Equipment: individual investment typically ranges between $50 and $250 per player.
• Travel is also on the individual and depends on which cities we travel to. In the past we've gone to places like Chicago, Boston, San Francisco, Seattle, Albuquerque and Kansas City.
