Welcome to Castleknock Hurling & Football Club's Nursery page.
The emphasis of the Club's Nursery is on fun and learning Hurling and Football skills. Along the way we hope our club will reinforce the values that will make the children lifelong members and will stand to them in every day life: Fair Play, Team Work, Loyalty, Discipline and Dignity.
Castleknock Hurling and Football Club is more than a sports club. It is a community that encourages involvement from all family members, brothers, sisters, mums, dads, uncles, aunts, cousins, grandparents, guardians. If you don’t play then there is any number of activities that you can get involved in. No-one is beyond helping with coaching, giving lifts, fund-raising, refereeing or just generally helping out. No experience is necessary; we’ve all had to start somewhere and there’s always instruction and support available. The website has contact details for all members of the Executive and team mentors, so feel free to get in touch that way or else through one of our Nursery coaches.
