Wicklows first ever All Ireland competition, which they have the honour of hosting this Sunday 21st at An Tochar GAA Grounds Roundwood starting at 1pm.

They travel across the country for many competitions on a weekly basis over the summer months and have become quite successful, winning a number of Gold, Silver and Bronze All Ireland medals. Tug of War is a difficult sport and requires commitment and willpower. We don’t see many competitions at this level in the eastern part of the country as most clubs are based in the West of Ireland, so this is a rare opportunity to see how Tug of War is supposed to be done through technique, strength and determination
