2017 Indoor Women's Camogie (Hurling) Program
Try Camogie this fall! Sign up now for our 2nd Indoor Camogie session at Naperville Yard in north Naperville just south of I88! Camogie is a FAST and FUN game that uses a wide array of skills. Camogie, and its male counterpart, Hurling, are rapidly growing sports in the U.S. that originated in Ireland between 2,000 and 3,000 years ago. The program is designed for players new to the sport and is coached by trained coaches and referees. Our coaching staff includes several Irish born players who grew up playing these sports. Each week will begin with learning and practicing a key skill then hold a scrimmage to work on those skills, with each week building upon the past learning.
