Excellent turn out at Coaching Workshop on Tackling
Last night saw the first of a series of workshops to be delivered in Cloghan over the coming months. The title of the workshop was “Coaching the tackle” and it was delivered by Gary Mallon from the Ulster Council. In attendance was 56 coaches from 33 mens & ladies clubs throughout the county. A great turnout and start to this Coach Development Programme. I would like to thank Gary Mallon and the Ulster Coucil for their continued support in developing & promoting Gaelic Games within the county. Additionally I would like to thank all the coaches who attended the workshop last night and hope to see the good numbers continue for the remaining workshops. Please see below details about the upcoming workshops and some photos from last nights workshop.
