A brilliant sunny Sunday was had by the 2008 boys on 28th May. They were presented with their new training tops by Andrew Byrne of Corcoran Chemicals who kindly sponsored the tops. They were treated to a surprise visit by Dublin Star Dean Rock who delighted the boys by answering all their questions, gave tips and advice, posed for photos and signed plenty of autographs. A big thanks to everyone who helped to make this a great day for our 2008s.

U8s Hurling vs Plunketts & Vincents

U8s Hurling vs Plunketts & Vincents

Our two U8s Groups welcomed the hurlers of St. Oliver Plunketts ER & St. Vincents to a sunny Castle last Saturday morning. Over 45 Syls hurlers played over the 2 fixtures, with the Greens facing 3 teams from Plunketts, and the Blues playing 2 teams from Vincents. The pitches had firmed up dramatically which allowed for a fast moving ball. The hurling training drills on Thursday evening clearly stuck with some superb 1st time striking of the moving sliotar in all matches.

The U8s' Busy Day .. and Night!

Our two U8s Groups had a welcome double Football fixture at home last Saturday morning. 50 enthusiastic Syls U8s players played over the morning, with the 3 Blues teams facing Erin's Isle at 10am, followed by the 3 Greens teams versus O'Tooles at 11.00am. There was a terrific crowd in attendance with the overlapping games, and a dry morning allowing for a fast pace in all the games. Scores were plentiful but more importantly, the skills level continues to improve. The coaches are especially pleased to see the application of recent Thursdays' training work into the matches in the areas of passing and blocking.

St. Sylvester’s U8s (2008s) Update

After some disappointing pre-Christmas wash-outs, our U8s (2008 born) have returned to training throughout January in terrific numbers. We are delighted to see over 45 players turning up every week for midweek training (Thursdays at 6.30pm on Hockey pitch) and on Saturday mornings at the Ball Wall.

U/7's Impressive inaugural display in Broomfield!

The 2008 squad had an incredibly impressive first outing of competitive (but very friendly) matches in Broomfield this Saturday morning.

St Sylvesters Hurling Camp July 2015

We had another great week of hurling in Broomfield with sixty five young energetic St Sylvesters hurlers taking part. Two Dublin hurlers Chris Crummy (Lucan Sarsfield) and Darragh O’Connell (Cuala) demonstrated the skills and tactics of the game. They were both very impressed with the skill level of our players and also with their willingness to listen and learn.
