World Games and play against teams from different countries. But
Declan's excitement about the trip soon turns sour, as he struggles

insight and heart.' The Irish Times
After joining the school hurling team, Declan must find a way to
juggle training for this new sport and football at the same time.
When Smithgreen's goalkeeper gets injured, Declan convinces his
brother, Daniel, to take the spot. But their parents mustn't find
out, as a childhood illness means Daniel is forbidden from playing
sport. Declan struggles to hide the truth while competing in two
championships. Has he finally bitten off more than he can chew?
Over the Bar is book three in this fun, compelling series for
children who are fans of the GAA. 'Ideal for GAA-loving children

undeniable talent and courage. He took the world by storm -- only
Ali could "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee!"Muhammad Ali:
