  • Player Pathway Phases of a Camogie Player’S Development 1
    Camogie Player Pathway Phases of a camogie player’s development 1 A message from the Director of Camogie Development The Camogie Player Pathway describes the opportunities to play Camogie from beginner to elite level. It is designed to give every person entering the game the chance to reach their personal potential within the sport. The pathway is divided into six stages: n Phase 1 – Get a grip 6-8 yrs approx n Phase 2 – Clash of the ash 9-11 yrs approx n Phase 3 – Get hooked 12-14 yrs approx n Phase 4 – Solo to success 15-17 yrs approx n Phase 5 – Strike for glory 17+ yrs approx n Retainment – Shifting the goalposts There are opportunities for everyone to play camogie, irrespective of age, ability, race, culture or background. The Camogie Association has adopted a logical approach to player development, so that every child and adult can reach their potential and enjoy Camogie throughout their lifetime. There are six progressive steps in a Camogie Player Pathway. Individuals will spend varying amounts of time mastering the relevant skills and attaining the requisite fitness levels. All participants should reach their potential in the stage that matches their age and aspirations. 2 For the most talented players, the player pathway ensures that they are given the very best opportunities and support to reach their full potential. Dr Istvan Baly’s Long-term Athlete Development model (LTAD) focuses on best practice in the development of players at every level. Camogie uses LTAD to develop the skills, coaches and competitions that are appropriate at each age and stage of player development.

  • Gaelic Football in Cleveland: Early Days
    Gaelic Football in Cleveland: Early Days The Gaelic Athletic Association was founded on November 1, 1884, in County Tipperary, Ireland, to set standards for and invigorate the playing of traditional Irish sports. References in the mainstream American press to Gaelic football matches--at the Pan American games in Buffalo in 1901, the World’s Fair in St. Louis in 1903 and under the auspices of the US Army in 1917— serve as reminders that Irish immigrants brought their passion for Gaelic games with them to the United States. Mention of Gaelic football surfaces in Cleveland newspapers in the 1920s. The close connection between the GAA and the cause of Irish nationalism was heightened by events of the day; in 1920, the Royal Irish Constabulary killed twelve spectators and a player at a Gaelic football match in Croke Park in Dublin. At an Irish picnic held in Cleveland in 1920, to express solidarity with nationalist hunger striker Terence MacSwiney, a Gaelic football match featured prominently. As reported in the Plain Dealer, the players “had starred in the game in their native land and [wished] to perpetuate the game in the United States by engaging in contests under Gaelic rules with teams from other cities.” Throughout the 1920s, various groups--the Young Ireland Gaelic Football team, a Municipal Gaelic Football Association, and the Cleveland Gaelic Football league—make fleeting appearances in Cleveland’s newspapers, often associated with the name of Phil McGovern as organizer. But it proved difficult to find enough players for teams and competition on a consistent basis. In Cleveland, Gaelic football players also found an outlet in soccer, even though playing soccer or other “British” games was anathema to the GAA in Ireland.
