I have to say I mostly agree with him here. Intercounty managers should be from the county they are managing and club managers should be from the club they are managing. Far too much money getting spent by clubs on this..

With Navan O'Mahoneys losing the Intermediate final and Simonstown Gaels already relegated it means there'll be no senior football for the Navan area in 2027.

Discussion Looking to Start a GAA Club at an American High School – Advice Welcome!

12 Upvotes

I’m interested in starting a GAA club at my former high school here in the Philadelphia area and would love some advice on how to get things off the ground.

I’m a pretty active alumnus at the school and have some flexibility in my schedule to volunteer a few afternoons a week. I’d love to introduce students to Gaelic games and hopefully build enough interest to establish a club.

Personally, I’d love to get hurling going, but I figure Gaelic football might be an easier starting point for American high school students, especially those who already play rugby, soccer, basketball, or American football.

I’m looking for any recommendations on beginner-friendly coaching resources, instructional videos, training drills, or even presentations/materials I could share with students to introduce them to the sports.

I’d also be interested in hearing from anyone who has helped establish a GAA program at a school, particularly outside of Ireland. What worked, what didn’t, and how did you go about generating interest?

Appreciate any advice or suggestions!

🏐 Football Boot recommendations for getting back into Gaelic football?

3 Upvotes

Looking to get back playing Gaelic football here in NY for the first time since I was a teenager, but don’t have a pair of boots anymore.
Was wondering what people generally recommend for Gaelic football specifically. Any brands or models people swear by, or ones to avoid? I live in Queens in NYC so can find pretty much any brand in person to go try on/test out.
Also curious if there’s anything in particular I should be looking for in terms of studs, fit, support, etc. Haven’t bought a pair in years so not really sure where to start. Always just used the same boots I had for soccer but want to buy something specifically for football.
Any advice appreciated!

Goes back to the start

Last few times I’ve watched a game back on clubber at some stages in the game it would randomly go back to the start and you have to drag it back to where you were. Anyone else have this problem?

Does anyone think a new gaa professional league is possible?

64% of players say they are happy with current structure and amateur roots, is this the truth or just because they have no other choice.

EDIT: Guys here me out, 6 teams, usa investors, halftime show, youtube broadcasting, kerry kings vs dublin ducks, could be serious
