Just a wee reminder that Canterbury GAA are kicking off FREE Kids GAA training sessions every Sunday at 10:30am, down on the Spreydon Domain. 29 Domain Terrace, Spreydon. Bring the kids down, and get yourselves a wee treat while the shop is open from 10am-12pm.

 

Kids of all ages and stages are Welcome. We want to thank the Canterbury GAA team and the parents who put their own time and effort into providing free fun sessions for the kids. An absolutely brilliant opportunity for parents to catch up, and the kids to get out of the house and learn skills and drills.
