Cuchulainn Initiative - Ulster GAA

Mayoral reception for the Bangor Boys Cuchulainn GAA team at Bangor Castle. North Down and Ards Mayor, Gilliam McCollum, will host a reception for the Bangor Cuchulainns Cross community GAA team. The Bangor Cuchulainns are a team of U15 boys from St Columbanus and Bangor Academy Sixth form college that came together through sport to represent their town at the All Britain Championships, in London, in July. The boys, none of whom had any background in Gaelic Games, prepared for 3 months to learn the skills of the game in a team setting to form friendships that will last a lifetime. They are the first team from Bangor to participate in Ulster GAA's flagship cross community initiative and represented their schools, their family and their town with distinction.
