Camogie Association & GAA Information and Guidance Leaflet On
Camogie Association & GAA Information and Guidance leaflet on the National Vetting Bureau (Children & Vulnerable Persons) Act 2012 March 2015 1 National Vetting Bureau (Children & Vulnerable Persons) Act The National Vetting Bureau (Children and Vulnerable Persons) Act 2012 is the vetting legislation passed by the Houses of the Oireachtas in December 2012. This legislation is part of a suite of complementary legislative proposals to strengthen child protection policies and practices in Ireland. Once the ‘Vetting Bureau Act’ commences the law on vetting becomes formal and obligatory and all organisations and their volunteers or staff who with children and vulnerable adults will be legally obliged to have their personnel vetted. Such personnel must be vetted prior to the commencement of their work with their Association or Sports body. It is important to note that prior to the Act commencing that the Associations’ policy stated that all persons who in a role of responsibility work on our behalf with children and vulnerable adults has to be vetted. This applies to those who work with underage players. (The term ‘underage’ applies to any player who is under 18 yrs of age, regardless of what team with which they play). The introduction of compulsory vetting, on an All-Ireland scale through legislation, merely formalises our previous policies and practices. 1 When will the Act commence or come into operation? The Act is effectively agreed in law but has to be ‘commenced’ by the Minister for Justice and Equality who decides with his Departmental colleagues when best to commence all or parts of the legislation at any given time. -
AIB Launches the Toughest Season - a Year Like No Other in Gaelic Games
30 November 2020 AIB launches The Toughest Season - A Year like no other in Gaelic Games Proceeds from the sale of the book will go to AIB’s partner charities, Age NI, Alone, FoodCloud, Soar & Pieta AIB, alongside Galway & Corofin footballer Ian Burke and former Dublin & Ballinteer St Johns footballer Coman Goggins, has launched The Toughest Season photobook, a pictorial account of how hurling, football and camogie communities came together to support one another throughout one of the toughest years in history. Inspired by the strength of spirit within Gaelic Games communities, AIB has partnered with Sportsfile, the GAA and the Camogie Association, to publish The Toughest Season, which captures in 120 images the resilience of clubs, fans, and communities before, during and after the COVID 19 lockdown. All proceeds from the sale of the book will be donated to the AIB Together Fund supporting Age NI, Alone, FoodCloud, Soar and Pieta House. 2020 saw club gates close and games cease yet club chairpersons, players and volunteers were never busier. The tougher the year was, the stronger we became. In the first few weeks of the first lockdown, 9,000 GAA club members provided support for almost 35,000 people. It is this spirit that AIB has been proud to champion through three decades of sponsoring the AIB GAA Club Championships across football, hurling and camogie. Earlier this Autumn, AIB called on those across the country to take part by submitting their own images that depict their experience of ‘The Toughest Season’. Along with Sportsfile imagery, the book is comprised of photographs from individuals across Ireland who have visually shared their own stories. -
A Seed Is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA from the Earliest Times, The
A Seed is Sown 1884-1900 (1) Before the GAA From the earliest times, the people of Ireland, as of other countries throughout the known world, played ball games'. Games played with a ball and stick can be traced back to pre-Christian times in Greece, Egypt and other countries. In Irish legend, there is a reference to a hurling game as early as the second century B.C., while the Brehon laws of the preChristian era contained a number of provisions relating to hurling. In the Tales of the Red Branch, which cover the period around the time of the birth of Christ, one of the best-known stories is that of the young Setanta, who on his way from his home in Cooley in County Louth to the palace of his uncle, King Conor Mac Nessa, at Eamhain Macha in Armagh, practised with a bronze hurley and a silver ball. On arrival at the palace, he joined the one hundred and fifty boys of noble blood who were being trained there and outhurled them all single-handed. He got his name, Cuchulainn, when he killed the great hound of Culann, which guarded the palace, by driving his hurling ball through the hound's open mouth. From the time of Cuchulainn right up to the end of the eighteenth century hurling flourished throughout the country in spite of attempts made through the Statutes of Kilkenny (1367), the Statute of Galway (1527) and the Sunday Observance Act (1695) to suppress it. Particularly in Munster and some counties of Leinster, it remained strong in the first half of the nineteenth century. -

Communications and PR 14 1 Foreword Gaelic games in Europe have grown rapidly since four clubs came together in Amsterdam in 1999 to establish the European County Board of the GAA. So, as we enter our 20th year, it is entirely appropriate that we celebrate the fact that over 90 clubs from more than 20 countries now cater for thousands of youths and adults who play gaelic football, camogie, hurling, handball and rounders across the continent. Any organisation that wishes to remain vibrant and successful needs to review, reflect and renew itself on an ongoing basis to ensure that it remains relevant to its members. While good progress was made in implementing our 2016-2018 Strategic Plan, we must also acknowledge that there was room for improvement. New issues have also emerged and more will do so in the coming years. That is why my priority on being elected GGE chair was to put in place a process to identify what we do well, what we can do better and create a plan to address future challenges. -

Clár Oifigiúil Luach £3.00 / €3.00 ORÁID AN CHATHAOIRLIGH A Cháirde Gael Fáilte mhór romhaibh uilig inniu chuig Port Chluain Eoghain ar lá speisealta fan chumainn anseo agus fa nár peileadóirí sa sraith. We benefit again from an exceptional welcome from the Casements of Port Chluain Eoghain on what is a special day for the club and ourselves as a county. Having hosted the club’s first ever national league fixture last week, which seen a healthy victory for our senior hurlers against Meath, we are delighted to return today for perhaps our most important match of the year against Limerick. Moving Day is a term sometimes used in American sports to describe the critical day in a league campaign, where games of determinative significance take place which will have a bearing on the final league places. Today is such a day for both of our senior teams. We welcome Limerick today who are unbeaten in the league and rightly sit at the top of the table, however we have targeted maximum return from our home fixtures so today is a must win. Victory today will place us one point behind Limerick, heading into the last two games, away to Wicklow on 15th March and finishing at home against Waterford a week later on 22nd March. Second place in the league will secure a place in the league final at Croke Park. Limerick also still have to play Wexford who have won their last 3 games since losing to us on day one, so it is all to play for. -
Bloody Sunday 100-Year Anniversary
Today, we mark the 100-year anniversary of Bloody Sunday, 21st November 1920, when 14 people were killed by British forces in Croke Park at a Gaelic football match between Dublin and Tipperary. Seven people were shot dead on the field or on the terraces of Croke Park, five were shot and subsequently died in hospital and two others were trampled to death. The match took place in the middle of the Irish War of Independence which lasted between January 1919 and July 1921. The events of Croke Park on the afternoon of 21st November 1920 were a British reprisal for that morning’s events when Michael Collins’ Squad (or “twelve apostles”) executed 15 British spies (“G-men”), operating out of Dublin Castle, known as the Cairo Gang. The exhibition match, part of the “Gaelic Sunday” acts of defiance against British rule which were initiated by the GAA two years earlier, was only roughly ten minutes in when over a dozen trucks filled with Black and Tans, Auxiliaries and RIC approached Croke Park from the Canal End. The occupants ran through the turnstiles and proceeded to fire rounds indiscriminately at the crowd and at the players. Panic ensued and along with the fatalities there were a further sixty people lying seriously wounded. Because of the county match not involving Tyrone, it is unlikely that there was anyone one from our Parish in Croke Park that day. However, we can ask ourselves several questions regarding the local GAA perspective on that day’s tragic events - Are there any club links to Bloody Sunday? What was the local reaction to Bloody Sunday? What was happening in our Parish at this time? Club Links to Bloody Sunday Perhaps the best known of the victims of Bloody Sunday is Michael (Mick) Hogan who was the sole player killed that day. -
