Something big is happening in the Belmar area this week, yes GAA is about to Launch for the Jersey Shore! ;-)
Come along tomorrow and find out about the most popular sports in Ireland - Gaelic Football & Hurling!
Launch Night - Wed March 26th, 7:45pm at Bar Anticipation, Lake Como
Gaelic Football - Fast paced game with a ball slightly smaller than a Soccer ball requiring good Hands & Feet, so people who have played Soccer & Basketball will pick this up real quick
Hurling - The fastest field game around, played with a hurl (See picture of the crossed stick) and a ball slightly smaller than a baseball, so people who have played Baseball & Lacrosse would hav a great starting point. Hurling goes way back too, ancient Irish manuscripts (3,000yrs) talk of Hurling!!
Both sports are played across America, with new Clubs starting up all the time for: Men, Women & Kids.
