The programmes available are as follows:
Gaelic4Girls
G4G is a 10 week programme incorporating coaching sessions with fun non-competitive blitzes aimed at increasing participation in Ladies Gaelic Football. The programme targets girls aged between 8-12 years who are not currently registered with a Ladies Gaelic Football club.
This programme is aimed at clubs struggling for underage players; it is particularly suitable for new clubs, clubs with no existing U8-U12 girls teams and clubs in urban areas with a number of schools in their catchment area.

Deadline for application Friday 29th November.
Gaelic4Teens
G4T is a coach education programme focused on engaging with and retaining teenage players and would particularly benefit clubs who have high drop out rates/struggle to field at U16+.
We recently advertised a one day workshop based on the Gaelic4Teens programme which sold out within hours. It is a hugely sought after programme and so if you missed out on the workshop I would strongly encourage you to apply for the full programme.
