Hurling Development Plan Workshop
| April 21, 2009 | ||
| 7:00 pm | to | 9:00 pm |
North Antrim Coaching and Development Committee have launched a development plan to promote hurling coaching and games. The plan mimics an approach taken in Munster, and has been drawn up in association with top Munster coaches. The idea is to share knowledge and replicate best practice in our clubs.
Tutors, who have been trained by Munster coaches, will “adopt” a club and assist in delivering a club plan for juveniles. Alec Campbell from Ballycastle has been assigned to assist All Saints.
To kick start the process, a meeting will be held on Tuesday 21st April in the club room at Slemish Park. All club members, senior players, parents and teachers are invited.
One of the key lessons learnt from Munster is the importance of getting parents involved in coaching and running teams. We therefore invite parents to come along as guests of honour to share your views and ideas and agree a way forward to progress hurling within the club.

Senior Football Challenge Game v Drumsurn
All Saints’ final challenge game before the League campaign ended in defeat at the hands of Drumsurn on Sunday.
All Saints won the toss and played against a stiff breeze in the first half. Drumsurn immediately won the throw in and quickly worked the ball inside to register the first point after about 10 seconds.
All Saints battled hard for the rest of the first half but Drumsurn’s better accuracy saw them go in at half time with a 1-11 to 1-03 lead. The All Saints goal came from Paul McCann who pounced on a mistake in the Drumsurn defence.
For periods of the second half All Saints lifted their game and popped on some nice scores, but 2 breakaway goals for Drumsurn sealed the win.
All Saints will be certainly be hoping for a better performance this Sunday when they travel to Dunloy for the first Division 2 ACFL game.
