Ulster on top in Inter-Pro Challenge

August 17th, 2010

Following on from Ulster GAA’s highly successful elite camp for Under 16 hurlers, at the beginning of July, two teams were selected to play Connaught in a number of challenge games to promote hurling for the province’s talented young players.

Two 13-a-side Ulster teams, of similar standard, were selected and they travelled to Tobercurry in County Sligo where they met Connaught sides made up of players who had attended their provincial school of hurling during the summer.

The Ulster squads played some terrific hurling and finished the day with four wins out of four. All players were a credit to their clubs and Counties and are to be commended for their dedication and commitment to our national game.
