Big Thank You to Coach Brandon Paul who took some time out from his visit to Ireland from New Jersey to take a couple of our Under 11 and Under 12 Goalkeepers through a position specific training session with the aid of club coaches last night (Tuesday). We also Thank Eoin, Tommy, Ronan and Dylan who helped out on the night by providing plenty of shooting for our Goalkeepers to deal with. We hope everyone enjoyed the session and we wish Brandon Paul all the best with his journey back to the U.S.A 🇺🇸 and We hope to see you return in the near future.
