Replying To DanGer966:  "Interesting new s&c coach Kevin O'Brien saying on instagram he started his new role with Westmeath hurlers last week and it threw up an unexpected challenge I wonder what that was"
No S&C facility
No money
No plan

Not based on the standard on display throughout the year in our county championship, particularly the final

The Gaels certainly preparing properly for Shelmaliers. Travelled to Carlow at weekend to play Ballygunner in a challenge, lost by 5-6 which is more than respectable, BG favourites to win AI

Westmeath schools have a team in senior A again alongside CBS Mullingar, good to see. The more young hurlers exposed to this level the better.

It was seniors. Gaels lost by a few points. They won a couple of challenges against notable opposition too though.
