    Hi,

    I have been living in Dublin for over a year (currently living and working in city center near camden street). I'm 24 and having not lifted a hurley in about 4 years, the final last Sunday has reinvigorated my interest and I am interested in getting back playing next year. Played as a child right up to under 21 but then emigrating abroad for a while for work stopped me playing.

    I would appreciate if anyone could recommend a decent club that may play Junior hurling and would be commutable by public transport from the city center. Any sort of standard would do as its more about me getting back playing next year. Even though the new season is obviously a good way, I would like to scout out some potential clubs now and start getting fit myself over the winter months.

    Any advice appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Bluezar


    How ya, Civil Service Hurling Club are always recruiting players and train and play out of Islandbridge (front of the war Memorial Park). There are 2 teams so regardless of your level, you would easily slot into one or the other. New players are always more than welcome. Islandbridge is easily accessible.

    For more details, email. I can't post email address here but you can find it on facebook

    What level would you like to play at? How much time would you like to give it?

    To be honest I'm open to any grade - although at this moment in time, my fitness would probably dictate that junior is the best option. I'm permanently in Dublin and I'm serious about getting back into it so time isn't an issue.

    Hi,

    I'm looking to train with a football club near to the rathmines area. At the moment I'm lookin to train durin the week with a team to keep fitness up for championship at home. Maybe teams won't want a player who is not playing with their club, but i would be considering joining a team in Dublin next year. Preferably find a club with a decent level of trainin as I have trained before with some junior clubs and only 7 or 8 people wer coming to training!!

    Well I'd be fairly sure the clubs would be happy to have you, another body at training is always welcome I'd say, especially if they think they might get a recruit out of you later. As for the level of training, some clubs really struggle with numbers and others don't, it just seems to be in the culture of the clubs themselves. I couldn't advise you which club will have numbers at it, since I don't play football, but I'd imagine somewhere like Templeogue Synge Street would have a decent enough level and wouldnt be far out of your way.

    Hi,

    23 year old here. Looking to start hurling again - haven't played in about 6 or 7 years. Just moved up to Dublin city centre (Drumcondra area). Looking for as low a level as possible and hopefully build up from there as the fitness comes back. If anyone knows the details of any clubs/trainings nearby then please let me know.

    Unfortunately most teams will be winding down from around now until January.

    Naomh Olaf would be your local club in Sandyford, and play both hurling and football. You could do worse than joining the Ben Dunne there for a couple of months before they get back training.
