  • Cork GAA Hurling and Football Draft Discussion Document for the Attention of All Club Members
    “We’ve only just begun. Together.” Cork GAA Hurling and Football Draft Discussion Document For the attention of all Club members Draft 1 July 12th, 2016 Kevin O’Donovan, County Coaching Officer, Email: [email protected] Phone: 086-7753567 Introduction – Ideas For Your Consideration… With much discussion regarding the plight of Gaelic Games in Cork recently, there is little doubt that an urgent need for significant improvement at all levels in Cork GAA now prevails. While the extent of our decline will continue to be perused until we grace Croke Park again, it is appropriate to first shift the discussion towards the broader landscape…. What do we actually seek to achieve through our involvement in the GAA? Why did we choose here, this place, to express ourselves? Do we seek to represent the best of who we are? Do our sports currently represent the best of who we are? Do we seek to implement this ‘best of us’ in a consistent and sustainable way, in order that our games are passed on to our sons and daughters so that they may taste the same small glories as we have done? What are the ideas we now require to reach this ‘best of us’? And most importantly, when did it all stop being fun? While numerous commentators have described the challenges now facing us, it is surely time to take up the gauntlet and organise our thoughts into ideas and plans so that we can be the ‘best of us’. Collective ownership. Collective responsibility. Collective action. Action at Child, Youth and Adult level.

  • GAA Club – Overview
    CIT Student GAA Club – Overview Camogie – Gaelic Football – Hurling – Ladies Gaelic Football - Handball As befits a County with Cork’s tradition in Gaelic Games, GAA has occupied a central role in the development of sport in the Cork Institute of Technology. The Cork Regional Technical College, as it was formally known until its change of title in 1997 to Cork Institute of Technology, first occupied its Bishopstown campus in September 1974. The new college buildings were officially opened by that great Cork GAA exponent and Taoiseach of the day, Mr. Jack Lynch, in December 1977. A student GAA football team was formed in 1975 and the hurling team commenced playing activities in 1976. In the same way the campus has evolved and expanded so too has the GAA Club which as well as being the oldest sporting club at the Institute, with over 400 active members is also the biggest.
