Next Thursday – 28th August 2014, former Philadelphia Eagles Fullback and Sky Sports pundit Cecil Martin is coming to Dublin to host his coaching clinic, exclusively for IAFA players between the ages of 16 – 24. The clinic will take place in the Garda RFC, Westmanstown (home venue of the Dublin Dragons – map at http://www.westmanstown.com/contact_us_map.html) from 5pm – 9pm.
