NICDA Membership 2020 – Please note

“It’s with regret both NICDA & HSI (Carriage Driving Section) have came to the difficult decision to cancel all driving events North and South on this year’s calendar.
The All Ireland Championships for 2021 will remain in Cuffesgrange, Co Kilkenny.”
Stay safe everyone and we’ll all look forward to a great season next year.
One of our long serving drivers would like to purchase some cones, if anyone out there has any they don’t need. Please contact me (07517065088) or leave a message on the website…
