This is what the GAA is all about.

Sort of. Club football is the lifeblood of the organisation and junior B is the cells of that blood. The GAA is an all-inclusive society. It's a community. It doesn't matter if you're no good, if you haven't played before or if you're old or overweight, there's a place for you in a GAA club and, if you really want to play, there's a place for you on a junior B team. Junior B hurling and football has provided us with some of the finest, most classically Irish moments down through the years and they just keep coming. So, as a new season dawns, here's our favourite so far. 11. There's a time and a place for handbags. "We were playing a rough team who didn't mind mixing it. At half time, no lies, our trainer turned to our full forward and said: 'You're you're a fighter. You're not a footballer.' He then turns to the rest of us: 'Lads, will ye pass the ball to him!'" Trainer 10. Hurler for sale on DoneDeal. JUNIOR-B-HURLER 9. The score's not important when you have such a good joke up your sleeve. Rude-scoreboard-1024x674 From Neil Merrigan. 8. No such thing as a drinking ban. https://twitter.com/JamesC90KK/status/635560105476550657?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw 7. When you need something really special to get back into a game. Snookers From Mark Corboy. 6. Anyone have the Jaffa Cakes... or the fags? https://twitter.com/RorysStories/status/622708821954273280 5. No-one likes a full-kit w**ker. Billy Dunne of Oulart the Ballagh wears what he wants. 12993620_1395955073856798_7590885919111698579_n Via Hurling Banter Page. 4. Referee interrupts to kick a point. 3. We've all struggled to fill the team. In Longford, Shroid Slashers had to resort to calling on 63-year-old Davy Ward to play corner forward to make up 13 players. No bother to him. 12992074_1004607736296819_404025314_n From Jamie Mulligan. 2. When you'd rather take a Snapchat than watch the goals. 4 5 From Eoin Gaffney. 1. The most reasonable excuse ever. https://twitter.com/YogieHogieBear/status/628319207424413696?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw If you have any junior B stories, pictures or videos, send them on to us via Facebook or Twitter or send us an email at editorial@SportsJOE.ie.
