The Ottawa Gaels Gaelic Football Club have put there hands up to play the Swans in a couple of International Rules games this year, the first being on the 23rd of June at 1PM.  The day will also have a BBQ and Drinks a plenty so be sure to get down and check out the game.  The Swans have managed to recruit Dermie, Ollie and JF from the Gaels already to play the Aussie game this year however I dont think those boys will pull on the boots for the June 23rd game.  It should be a great day and a great game so be sure to get down to the Gaels/Swans playing field June 23rd and check out the action!
