Sports Jerseys for India
The old jerseys are starting to roll in – Dundrum GAC have left up 6 sets of jerseys! Sr. De Lourdes from the Convent of Mercy Catherine Street Newry has welcomed the response to our appeal and thanks the GAA family for their generousity.
Keep collecting - If you have any old, used or even unused sports jerseys please leave them in the club that will get a new lease of life with the teenagers in India.
