U13 Irish Cup

Information about the Irish U13 Mixed Cup and Ulster U13 Cup

Irish U13 Cup

The U13 Mixed Cup is taking place on 19 and 20 May 2018 in the National Aquatics Centre, Dublin. This year’s competition is for players born 2005 or later.

Details

The competition pool is approximately 1.5 hours drive from Belfast. Given the cost of hotel accommodation in Dublin, it is not proposed that we stay overnight. Instead, we plan to travel down and up on the Saturday and Sunday. Parents are, of course, free to make other arrangements.

The tournament schedule has not been published. We will circulate further details when they are made available.

Registration

In order to compete in the competition, players must be officially registered with the club and Swim Ireland. This includes payment of the annual registration fee.

• Friday 6th April
• Friday 11th May

Both blitz run from 7.30pm to 9.30pm.
