Wexford Schools Hurling Blitz
Over two hundred boys from ten schools participated in a county schools under-14 hurling blitz on Wednesday in Pairc Charman. The blitz was organised by the Secondary Schools Committee and well co-ordinated on the day by Wexford GDAs Shane O’Hanlon and Diarmaid Byrne.
The games were 20 minute-a-side and were refereed by Transition Year students from the schools involved.
Many thanks to the clubs in Pairc Charman who made their facilities available and to the schools and teachers for their co-operation. The emphasis was on participation and fun with rolling substitutions and plenty of game-time for all.
