Gaelic Start Taster Camps

What is the Gaelic Start Programme?
It's full 16 week programme whereby coaches will go into clubs and demonstrate good practice with children aged 5 to 8 years old. Children will develop their fundamentals and learn sport specific skills related to Gaelic Football, Hurling and Camogie. The programme is as much to encourage new volunteers / coaches to come and take part and develop as it is about the children.

Over the summer we have offered to provide clubs with a taster of the Gaelic Start Programme. We hope to visit clubs for two days during the summer to give them an idea as to what it's all about.


So far we've ran Gaelic Start camps in Bellaghy, Celtic Park and Swatragh (Pic Below). By the end of the summer we hope to visit as many clubs as we can get squeezed in.

From October onwards we hope to run the Gaelic Start programme in it's entirety in as many clubs as we can.
