Round Towers Hurl with Me Programme came to a conclusion last week after 6 weeks. 20 parents took part in the programme in the newly formed North Dublin club in Lusk. Laura and Miriam Twomey Dublin senior camogie players were special guests on the night. They presented the parents with hurleys funded by the Fingal Sports Department. Parents and daughters can now continue to practice the skills of the game at home. Well done to all involved in the programme and best wishes with the new club development.
