September 07, 2024 461 Views

This is our favourite week of the year !!

We are only a few days away from the start of 2024 Templeogue Synge Street (TSS) GAA club Mini All-Ireland.
This year is the 10th anniversary of TSS Mini All-Ireland AND the clubs 25th Anniversary AND the 50th anniversary of LGFA (we have over 700 girls / women in TSS playing at different levels).

It will be the biggest ever with 750 girls and boys signed up and ready to go! Thanks to you all for supporting this landmark event in our juvenile calendar.

Aside from the work done by our volunteers this could never happen without the generous support of our sponsors and advertisers, and we are particularly grateful to our headline sponsors: Capital Credit Union, The Two Sisters, Parts for Cars and Park Financial Planning.
We really hope that the children enjoy the experience at the TSS Mini All-Ireland and you enjoy some of the club atmosphere around the event.

Remember it runs on the evenings of Tuesday to Thursday (10th - 12th September) and then Saturday 14th from 1pm.
