Their U21 side recently won the Eircom U21 league - defeating Cork City in the final. All of the squad (bar coach Mike Quirke) are from Salthill & have played for the club from schoolboy up.
Their U18 side lost in the semi final of the Irish Cup last year - and the club are regular winners of u'age titles - they had three schoolboy and six schoolgirl international, as well as a senior international, and an U19 international.
As well as supplying several of the current Galway Utd squad, they have two coaches who have finished their UEFA A badges, and regularly field 27 sides.
ASAIK, they are now concentrating on football, now that the development is fairly advanced.
Watch this space... if you don't think they're any good yet, they're in danger of getting better.
