    2021 GAA MEDIA GUIDE Treoirleabhar na Meán 2021 @officialgaa 2021 GAA Media Guide - Teachtaireacht ón Uachtaráin Ba mhaith liom fáilte a chur romhaibh go léir ar ais chuig ár gcluichí The last 14 months have come as a challenge to us all and while we have some distance to travel before we can once again look forward to big games with full stadiums, there are green shoots ahead of us. Who could have known in mid-March last year when we took the decision to shut our activities down, that the Covid challenge would still be front and centre as the summer of 2021 approaches? The best of the GAA shone as we grappled with profound changes to our lives and the supports provided by our club and county network to those who needed them most was both heartening and reassuring. Our games when they returned were a welcome tonic. The club championships and all of the activity that preceded them helped breathe life back into communities right across the GAA family. Similarly, in the darkest days of winter the inter-county games provided us with a focal point and a welcome distraction as we grew accustomed to supporting our players and teams from afar. In the coming weeks, the Allianz League games will come thick and fast and the interest and excitement will follow. We have shown flexibility in organising our competitions, most notably in football where again a straight knockout approach will apply. I would like to acknowledge the buy-in from everyone concerned in helping to make both last year and this season work, and I have no doubt that the entertainment value and profile of the games will be as high as ever.

  • 'High Prestige': the Story of Clare's All Ireland Hurling Championship
    ‘High Prestige’ The Story of Clare’s All Ireland Hurling Champions of 1914 Dr. Tomás Mac Conmara Produced as part of the ‘Champions Once More’ exhibition at Clare Museum 15 October 1914 ‘No Gael can afford to miss this game. In all likelihood it will mark a new departure for Irish hurling and should prove sensational in the extreme. A good hour of thrills is assured, sixty minutes of exhilarating hurling. Hurling is easily the most spectacular of games but such hurling as can be played by Clare and Leix will be a sight for the Gods. With special excursions at cheap rates from all parts of the country, he would be unwise who is found at home when the ball is thrown in for one of the greatest encounters ever staged’.1 22 October 1914 ‘Hurling champions of Ireland! Such is Clare’s proud boast after the final match which was played in Croke Memorial Park, Dublin in the presence of at least 15,000 spectators last Sunday. While it cannot be truthfully said that it was a first class match, still there were plenty of thrills and at every part of the contest, the boys from Clare mastered their doughty opponents from the Queen’s county and the score eloquently speaks for the superiority in the victors.
