FÁILTE ROIMH GO LÉIR!
Welcome to the Website of the Wolfetones - Western Mass Youth Gaelic Games. Our mission is to teach the children of Western Massachusetts about Gaelic football, one of two national sports played in Ireland with the other being Hurling. Gaelic football is great exercise, and develops a sense of teamwork as well as assisting each player in fine tuning their motor skills and coordination. The Wolftetones are open to all children ages 5-16.

Wolfetones' Second Clinic of 2012. (2-19-12)
Thanks to all of the families that came out for our second outting of the year. Great skill sessions followed up with some very interactive game play. With 26 players today, we had a wide range of ages and experience. From the smiles, it looks like all of us had fun.
