One great way of helping the club and county is to volunteer as a referee, and as more refs are needed at the moment it would be of great assistance to both St Brigid’s and Antrim. See below more details on how you can qualify at Headquarters!
The Foundation course for new referees will be on Saturday March 23rd at 10am and on Monday March 25th at 7pm.- Dunsilly Hotel!
AMAZINGLY, the final session will be in Croke Park on Saturday April 6th where certificates will be presented and referees gear given out to all successful participants.
