Avoca have a large, active and fun junior section with boys and girls teams ranging from 6-16 years of age. There are c.800 club members under 18 years of age.
All sections are played with mixed ability until 6th class and Avoca promotes inclusion and enjoyment in all sessions. Our aim is to actively support youth health and wellbeing though sports development….and fun!
We boast a strong coaching ethos supported by a dedicated and co-ordinated team. We compete annually in various fun tournaments as well as some teams competing in Leinster League and Cup competitions.
