Kiltale Hurling & Camogie Clubs – Healthy Eating Initiative

The clubs will host an open evening on Friday 2nd September, during which all juvenile boys and girls will play rounders. The senior hurlers and camogie players might even chip in!

  • Parents will be asked to attend a talk by nutritionist David Tobin in the clubhouse, who will offer a question-and-answer session afterwards. This talk begins at 6:30pm.
  • The children will join their parents in the clubhouse afterward for a quick briefing on nutrition.
  • Also on show will be the Christy Ring Cup and Division 2 Camogie Trophy.

We ask parents of the juveniles to attend this event with their children.
