Families:
Hope you all had a great summer and are now ready to send the kids back to school. We wish everyone a terrific school year - study hard and stay safe.
We have many exciting things happening this Fall and Winter. We will be starting our Fall Saturday evening sessions on Saturday, September 10 from 4-5:30 pm at the Irish Cultural Centre. This free program will run until Saturday, November 5 (weather permitting). It is open to U5-U13 boys and girls. We will have football and hurling/camogie skills at each session. Trinity Milton will be joining us each week as well so we can hold scrimmages at the end of our drills. We hope to hold an end of season pizza party for all families as well.
We have been asked to travel to two tournaments. One in Hartford and the other in the Catskills. We would love to send teams to participate and hope many of you will have an interest in going.
We realize this season has been challenging for families with the extreme hot weather, many traveling to Ireland for the first time in years and other commitments. With that in mind, we would like to get your input on how we can make our program better going forward. We are seeking from you the good, bad and anything you would like to suggest to help our program grow stronger. These past few years have been a challenge for all of us with Covid, but we want the ISYL to continue to provide Gaelic sports and training to your children and many more in the future.
We are asking for you to email us at
