The Midleton Magpies All-Stars and their coaches salute their supporters at Páirc Uí Chaoimh last Sunday.
The Midleton Magpies All-Stars made history last Sunday when they became the first team with additional needs to play a hurling match at Páirc Uí Chaiomh.
They put on a great exhibition for those in attendance at the Midleton v Sarsfields Cork Premier Senior Hurling Championship semi-final.
The Magpies All-Stars initiative is Midleton GAA Club’s highly laudable GAA for All programme which has seen them coach children with additional needs on a weekly basis since 2019.
