I think the likes of clubs with big population booms especially from other parts of Ireland like Allen Gaels or Annaduff should really be promoting hurling, but then again I suppose football needs to be taught in some of these places first before they move on to the hurliing.

Annaduff too close to Carrick to set up their own club, they've had a few lads play with carrick over the years. Allen gaels a better shout, try pull players from a few surroundings parishes round lough Allen and sliabh an iarainn. Would need 5 to nearly 10 years fielding at academy and underage level before anything at adult would bear fruit

Replying To bláthach:  "Yes Gortletteragh tried but failed thanks so much. But to be fair to them please it's very hard for them as they find it hard enough at the football, never mind the hurling. Thanks so much for agreeing with me on this."
It's a wonder you never tried to get it going in Fenagh.
