We are confirmed for our first game at Illinois Benedictine! Our game is currently scheduled for August 3, 2014 at 4:00 p.m., but we are going to try to get that pushed back to around 6:00 to 6:30 p.m. The pitch is 135M x 70M, which is a very nice size for our game! We hope to expand the schedule of games at Illinois Benedictine in 2015 due to the quality location, the quality facilities and to develop a mutually beneficial relationship between the University and our club. Our vision is to eventually have Illinois Benedictine be our "Home" field for purposes of practices, games and tournaments. In the absence of a "Gaelic Park West," we envision a relationship with Illinois Benedictine like the relationship between the New York GAA and Manhattan College and a day when "Home of the Naperville Hurling Club" is adorned upon the Stadium. This will take years to develop and may require commitments of labor and funds, but if successful, the relationship will help maintain a strong and vibrant club for many years into the future.
