Cúl Camp official web site

St. Matthew's Drumsurn will be hosting the Vhi GAA Cúl Camp again this year.

Gaelic Start Camp, Mon 16th August 10:30am – 12:00noon, P1 and P2 only, free of charge

Vhi Cul Camp, Tue 17th August – Friday 20th August 10:00am – 2:30pm, All primary school children

Vhi GAA Cúl Camps provide boys and girls with an action-packed and fun-filled week of activity during the summer holidays which revolves around maximising enjoyment and sustaining participant involvement in Gaelic Games Activities are GAME - BASED – a strong emphasis is placed on skill acquisition - and are organised in an age appropriate manner with a view to:

  • Optimising learning
  • Enhancing friendships
  • Improving physical & psychological well being
  • Promoting school and club links

The camps are structured so that a different aspect of the game is worked on each day. The programme involves coaching specific skills of the game and the opportunity for children to put into practice what they have learned through small sided games. On the last day of the camp a "blitz" will be organised to provide each child with an introduction to competitive games. All children who attend the camp will receive a Cúl Camp kit consisting of a jersey, shorts, socks and bag.

The price for one child to attend the Vhi Cul Camps this year is £32, for a second child in the same family it will cost them £27 for that child and if there is a third child in that family it will cost them £20 to attend.
