- Community Games
Corofin/Belclare/Sylane Community Games caters for children aged 6-16 years.
It is not entirely sports based, there is a culture and arts section so children get an opportunity to experience a wide range of activities.
Local games are followed up by a county final and culminating in the All-Ireland Finals held over two weekends in August.
Email Breda Power or Gary Laheen for further information.
