16 August 2019 Scene set for 2019 LGFA National Under 17 Academy Blitz Day Share this Article 0 0 0 Shares! 0 Shares! THE 2019 National Under 17 Academy Blitz Day will take place next Tuesday, August 20, in the impressive surroundings of the GAA National Development Centre in Abbotstown. This is the LGFA’s sixth annual Under 17 Academy day, and it promises to be the biggest and best yet. 26 teams, representing 20 counties, will make the trip to Abbotstown and when the dust settles on what should be another memorable day, our Plate, Shield and Cup winners will have been crowned. Those in attendance on Tuesday will be treated to a magnificent spectacle of skill, teamwork and camaraderie. The main focus of the day, as always, will be kept in perspective, as we aim to develop every player and ensure that all players present will be provided with plenty of opportunities to play. We would like to extend a very special welcome to all teams on the day, and thanks to our volunteers, referees and coordinators, who will be working hard to ensure that the event runs smoothly. We also look forward to seeing many of these players in action with their respective Clubs and County teams over the coming years. Share this Article 0 0
