Kids invited to 'All Ireland' blitz in Rossnowlagh with 1992 All Ireland winner


Sylvie Maguire will be on hand to lead the warm-ups and referee the games, and pass on some of his All Ireland match-winning skills
Kids from any county or club are invited to Rossnowlagh Farmers Market to take part in a Donegal v Kerry All Ireland blitz.
It is hoped that there will be enough players to field games from U8 to U14. And 1992 All Ireland winner Sylvie Maguire will be on hand to lead the warm-ups and keep an eye on proceedings.
The blitz takes place at Rossnowlagh Farmers Market in the Council (main) Car Park, with registration at 10am and warm-up and ball skills at 10.15am.
A spokesperson said: "We’re calling all young GAA players from near and far (and fans big and small) to come out, wear your GAA kits (or your best Donegal or Kerry jerseys), and join us for a brilliant day of games, skills, and community fun.
"Kick off your day with a special ball skills session led by Sylvie Maguire - 1992 All-Ireland Champion with Donegal! Sylvie will also referee the matches, bringing both expertise and a bit of championship class to the pitch.
"Clubs are welcome. We’re delighted to have Aodh Ruadh joining us - and we welcome young players from any club. Everyone will be placed on a team on the day, so just come along ready to play.
Those take part can look forward to pre-match banter and pep talks.
The spokesperson continued: "Your team manager will be picked on the day - they’ll help sort teams and tactics before throw-in.
"Local matchups Donegal vs Kerry style - every goal counts, but it’s all about fun, teamwork and county pride!"
There will also be a fanzone.
"Wave your flags, take photos, and show off your county colours - green and gold or whatever county or club you come from," said the spokesperson.
Of course, it is also a wonderful opportunity to pick up delicious food and quality crafts at the Rossnolwagh Farmers Market. More information and updates can be found on their Facebook page.
