Regional Development Squad TRIALS

  • Oct 09,2015

It's that time of the year again.

Cork North Regional Football Squads will be running trials for the upcoming squads for a winter training programme.

With the Cork Squads finished for this season, we will be welcoming the Cork players back to the Regionals squads for the winter.

We are looking to make a panel of 25 players at U15 & U16 level and a panel of 50 players at U14 level for 2016.
