Lucan Sarsfield’s Club Notes
Juvenile
There was plenty of action this week for our juvenile teams. Pictured below our U9, U14 and U15 camogie teams over the weekend.
St Patricks Day
We had a very successful St Patricks Day this year with many of our juvenile players representing the club in the Lucan parade. This was followed by an enjoyable evening back at the clubhouse with children's entertainment, live music and pub food. Some pictures from the parade can be seen below.
We also had three representatives at the Madrid Harps St Patricks Day family outing. Pictured below Jamie Lavin, Daire Shanahan and Ciaran McHugh.
