(under 10 Festival of summer hurling)
On Saturday 22nd Aghada hosted the first of the summer mini-blitz's
in glorious sunshine-Fun 1b group, with Con Ryan being the host organiser
for the day. Teams participating were Sarsfields, Cobh, Erins Own,
Kiltha og and Aghada. The new format went down well and did take away
from the spirit of the hurling of which every player participated,
in this 10 a side zoned pitch with 20 minutes a side. Each team played
4 games each and the blitz started at 10am and finished up at 12.45pm.All
participant team mentors liked the controlled zone approach, which
gave each player more ball touches and a full involvement in the team.
In this blitz Sars came first, Erins Own second, Aghada and Cobh shared
third and Kiltha og came in fourth.
On Friday 28th Aghada hosted their second team in the mini-blitz Fun
2c group, with Emmett Foley being the host organiser for Aghada. Team
participating were Sarsfields, Carrigtwohill & Aghada. Watergrasshill
could not make this blitz. This was also an interesting blitz with
Sars and Carrick edging out Aghada in a very close encounter of the
go Games zoned format.
All host blitz organisers are requested to inform by text the outcome
of the mini blitz to 086 3862825 so the correct skill strength is
calculated for the final blitz finals on Sept 11th. In Rostellan.
