*Kids ages 15 - 17 are eligible to participate in our adult training sessions and City League with signed approval of a parent or legal guardian. Kids in this age range who have not been through the Emmets Óga program may be required to demonstrate a minimum level of skill and athleticism in order to ensure their ability to play safely.

- Subscribe to the TCRE newsletter for updates
Where is it?
Sessions take place at different locations throughout the year depending on field availability and training needs. Families should follow the team calendar and sign up for our newsletter for the latest schedule updates and announcements.
What do I need to bring?
Participants should wear comfortable, athletic clothing appropriate for the weather and running shoes or cleats. Kids who have a hockey or lacrosse helmet may wear it in lieu of a hurling helmet (provided). All other equipment will be supplied.
What will my child be doing?
Kids will learn basic hurling or Gaelic football skills from our experienced coaches, play games that help develop movement and coordination, and practice what they have learned with simple scrimmages.
Is Emmets Óga co-ed?
Yes! Our Emmets Óga program is gender-inclusive. Skills learned will be transferrable to both hurling and camogie, so youth who are interested in continuing with the game will be well prepared for either track.
