I am a stag: of seven tines, I am a flood: across a plain, I am a wind: on a deep lake, I am a tear: the Sun lets fall, I am a hawk: above the cliff, I am a thorn: beneath the nail, I am a wonder: among flowers, I am a wizard: who but I Sets the cool head aflame with smoke?
I am a spear: that roars for blood, I am a salmon: in a pool, I am a lure: from paradise, I am a hill: where poets walk, I am a boar: ruthless and red, I am a breaker: threatening doom, I am a tide: that drags to death, I am an infant: who but I Peeps from the unhewn dolmen, arch?
I am the womb: of every holt, I am the blaze: on every hill, I am the queen: of every hive, I am the shield: for every head, I am the tomb: of every hope.
I started playing Hurling two years ago. I went to our local Irish Fest and found out about the sport. I had never heard of it until that day. I went to a couple of practices and I was hooked.
Our team/club started in 2005 with just a hand full of people. In 2008 they traveled to nationals in Boston and came back with the Junior C championship. Since then we've grown to over 160 members. This past summer we had seven pub teams in our innner-club tournament. We have a Junior C, Junior B and Camogie team that went to nationals in San Francisco this year. Junior C didn't do too good, Junior B got second and Camogie won the shield trophy.
I traveled to Chicago Gaelic Park and took a Fundamentals Coaching Course to I could help our growing club teach this great sport.
We are getting ready to start our fall club league and this year we are going to introduce Gaelic Football into the club.
It's a fun sport and I will keep playing it until I can't walk or stand anymore.
My club is The Indianapolis Hurling Club. Check out our webpage if you want to know more about us. Indy Hurling Club
