Entries are Being Accepted for Gaelic4Mothers National Blitz

We are delighted to announce details of our National Gaelic4Mothers &Others Blitz Day which will take place on the 17th October in Naomh Mearnog GAA Club, Portmarnock, Dublin.  The Blitz Day will commence at 12.15 p.m. and all Teams will be requested to register from 11.15 a.m.  The Blitz Day is completely recreational and all players and mentors are asked to treat the Blitz in a fun and fairplay manner.  This is not a day for competition and no scores will be recorded!

The Entry fee is €10 per Player with a maximum of 15 players per team (so €150 per team).  Following the request of a number of clubs we have increased the number of players per team to 15.  We would ask all teams to respect the player limit of 15 per team and if teams have additional players we would encourage teams to enter a second team.  All teams will be provided with 15 packed lunches at Registration.  Please note lunches cannot be provided for additional players or spectators.  If team mentors would like a lunch, it is an additional €10 per mentor, maximum of 2 mentors are allowed per team.  Unfortunately due to the large volume of lunches, dietary requirements cannot be catered for.

 

The day is planned to be family orientated with a festival atmosphere!  We encourage all teams to bring supporters and assist us with creating a great Family Day Out!   The day is gearing up to be a fantastic event so please make sure to get your entry form in early!

 

We will be joined again by Ireland’s Mr Motivator, Richard Clifford for our signature Mass Warm Up and this year to keep us all entertained the 2FM Roadcaster will also be present on the day!

 

Closing date for Entry forms (attached) is the 30th September 2015 and all forms should be submitted to the Ladies Gaelic Football Office in Croke Park.  Teams should also note that your Entry Form will not be accepted without the Entry Fee.  Entry Fees cannot be paid on the day of the Blitz.

 

Any teams who are staying on Friday or Saturday night, we would recommend you contact Activities Ireland (Nessa McCall) (01) 5056794 for accommodation deals in the Dublin Area. The Association uses Activities Ireland on a regular basis and we can definitely recommend their services and their ability to get great Hotel deals.
