Camogie practices have started and we want to see all you gals out there! Camogie in the MHC is open to all women and girls ages 12 and up. Practices are held at Brown Deer Park on Tuesday evenings at 6:00 PM and Saturday mornings at 10:00 AM.

Camogie is a field sport very similar to hurling. The difference is in a slight variation of the rules and it being played only by women and girls. The Milwaukee Hurling Club has offered camogie since 2000. Since then it has grown in both number and spirit. We encourage anyone interested to participate in our weekly practices where skills and camaraderie are enhanced. At Irish Fest each year, the camogie club fields two full teams to showcase the sport.

The Clash, the MHC’s competitive camogie team, competes against other camogie clubs throughout the country. In 2003, the team was first invited to participate in the North American Gaelic Athletic Association Championships, which were held in Boston. The Clash are the owners of 3 national championships – junior camogie champions in Boston in 2003, junior A camogie champions in Denver in 2004 and junior camogie champions in Philadelphia in 2006!
