Our U12 LGFA team had a very special guest at training this evening - AWFL star Aisling McCarthy!
The Fremantle Dockers player, who was named in the 2024 AFL Women's All-Australian team, kindly took the session and shared her experiences and expertise with the girls.
A Tipperary native, Aisling is no stranger to the GAA pitch. She played camogie for her home club, Cahir and captained them to victory in the 2016 All-Ireland Intermediate Final. In 2017, she was named Player of the Match in Tipperaryโs All-Ireland Intermediate Ladies' Football Championship win!
Pictured are our young players alongside Aisling, as well as their coach, Layla Alvey, who made a presentation to thank her for taking the time to coach our team. The girls thoroughly enjoyed every moment of the session!
Best of luck to Aisling and her team as they resume their 2025 season this month. And donโt be a stranger at Pรกirc Naomh Ultan when you're back home in Ireland! โซ๏ธ๐ก
