We have delivered a number of very significant projects over the past 20 years and we have a proven track record in successfully delivering major programmes of development. Our Community Responsibility • We provide one of the only outlets for positive youth activity in the area. • We provide a safe and healthy environment for the youth of the area to engage in constructive sporting and recreational activities that provide both health and social benefits. • The numerous big games held at our grounds have over many, many years have attracted perhaps 1 million visitors to the town and if each visitor spent only £20 the payback for the local economy could be estimated to be in the region of £20 million. • We play a vital role in keeping anti social behaviour to a minimum in the locality eg there is little or no graffiti or car crime in the area even though it is an area of high deprivation.

    Football Hurling Club General JUNE 2021 NUACHTLITIR MEITHEAMH 2021 FOR NEWS, VIDEOS AND FIXTURES www.gaa.ie Football Hurling Club General IMPORTANT GAA COVID-19 UPDATE FOR CLUBS IN THE 26 COUNTIES A chara, As you are aware, the Irish Government last Friday confirmed a further relaxation of Covid-19 restrictions to take effect from Monday, June 7th. In terms of Gaelic Games, the impact of this for various activities is outlined below. Games/Attendances From June 7th, competitive and challenge games at all levels of club and inter county are permitted to take place. However, it is essential that we continue to proceed with caution and that the Return to Play Protocols linked here continue to be followed. In terms of attendances, 100 spectators will be permitted to attend GAA games (club and inter county) in the 26 Counties from Monday, June 7th. This number is in addition to players, team personnel, stewards or media attendees. Where a ground has a minimum accredited capacity of 5,000, a maximum of 200 spectators can attend. It is likely that from July 5th, up to 200 spectators may be permitted to attend games, and up to 500 may be permitted in grounds with a minimum capacity of 5,000. However this will depend on progress in broader society – if these increases are to be permitted, we will advise in advance of July 5th. Where attendances are permitted at games, the advice, prepared by the National Health and Safety Committee needs to be followed. For underage games, where parents are attending in a child-protection capacity, they will count as part of the 100 spectators permitted to attend.

In 1999, the Club voted to purchase the site and for the past decade, the club has diligently proceeded to develop the complex. To date a floodlit Astroturf type All-Weather pitch has been provided; a superb floodlit All-Weather pitch (140m x 81m) came on stream in 2008 and next Spring the Prunty pitch (138m x 86m) will be used for games. Already, the club has claimed honours – Senior hurling league and Under 14 football league titles on the new pitch – a happy omen for the future. The AGM held on 4 December 2008 gave the go-ahead to commence the construction of six dressing rooms at the site. Dressing room facili- ties will also be provided in Knocklyon Park. Sports Capital grants will assist greatly in meeting the costs of these facilities and the club New Floodlit All-Weather pitch at Sancta Maria is extremely grateful to all who have supported the club in these endeavours.

Bibliography p. 137. 3 The Gaelic Athletic Association and the H-Blocks Crisis, 1976 - 1981 Mark Reynolds This thesis will explore how the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) was affected by the escalating series of protests initiated by Irish republican prisoners in the Maze Prison (H- Blocks) during the period 1976 - 1981. The thesis will detail the pressures that were placed upon the various units of the GAA, from internal and external sources, to publicly support the demands of the protesting prisoners. The thesis will question how the GAA, an organisation perceived by many as nationalist/republican in outlook, responded to these demands, while at the same time responding to those from within and outside the association who were against any form of GAA support for the prisoners.
