Hurling Workshop
Tralee Parnells are hosting a hurling & camogie workshop in Kerins O'Rahilly's clubhouse (upstairs) this Friday 26th January at 7:30pm. The workshop will be facilitated by John Griffin, former Kerry hurling captain and former Kerry hurling GDA. We invite everyone with an interest in developing hurling & camogie in Tralee in general to attend - membership of the club is not required.
To allow us prepare for the workshop, we would like to understand the views of all our members so we are asking everyone (whether you are free to attend or not) to complete a questionnaire, which you can access at this link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeNL6h0yerFnnMTiGEBh3RLIXMsWz47B75QhRUtspgzG4qnJA/viewform?vc=0&c=0&w=1&flr=0
