Gaelic Games Catalogue SELECT BIBLIOGRAPHY from the Gaelic Games Collection at C6FLA This select bibliography has been compiled from the Gaelic games collection of the Cardinal Tom:is 6 Fiaich Memorial Library and Archive in Armagh. It is intended to provide a useful guide to the wide range of publications of historical relevance to the GAA that are available at the library for consultation or research. The lisr does not include the full extent of the libraryt Gaelic games collection; items such as biographies of current or recent players and managers are generally omitted due to considerations of space. In keeping with the theme of this collection, and to aid research, the bibliography is divided into the different layers of the GAA - national, provincial, county and club - as they feature in published histories, and then individual secrions are devoted to each Gaelic game and different rypes of source for further research. The library has an acrive acquisitions policy in respect of Gaelic games manuscripts, publications and ephemera, and this extends to all material relating to the GAA and Gaelic culture in general. The majority of the items listed in this select bibliography have been received through kind donation and the library would like to acknowledge and thank these benefactors for their continuing generosity. 1.

In writing this thesis, I hope that I have, in some way, managed to explain the reasons for this cultural diversity. This thesis would not have been written without the assistance of my two supervisors, Professor Mike Cronin and Professor Matthew Taylor. Professor Cronin’s assistance and knowledge has transformed the way I think about history, society and sport while Professor Taylor’s expertise has also made me look at the writing of sports history and the development of society in a different way.

There is still though the need to be cautious and responsible, our Grounds are not yet open and we need to be patient, there will be time for all things, we just don't need to do anything that compromises future prospects. I need to emphasise again that Teams and Groups of players are not covered by GAA Insurance for activities that are currently taking place in our County, Teams training at local Council facilities, in Forest Parks, on Soccer Pitches, on Farmers Lands are putting at risk the health of your Players, your Club Members and their families, you are also going into other areas and other communities and putting people at risk. For the next 16 days we appeal to you to be patient to wait and look at the programme outlined today by CCC there is enough time to be able to be ready for a return to play. Down GAA have also established a Covid-19 Return to play advisory group headed up by the County Chairperson and including other officers and with additional support from Danny Baxenden and Seán Lennon, the group can be contacted through myself as County Safety Officer and we will try and advise on any queries you might have.

    The History of Gaelic Football and the Gaelic Athletic Association Jaime Orejan, PhD, Elon University INTRODUCTION Towards the end of the nineteenth century some people feared that the Irish games could face extinction. There was concern that the English games would take over Ireland and the native games would fade away. The establishment of the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) in 1884 was the defining moment in the history of Ireland’s native games. Today the GAA regulates four distinctive games. The most popular are Gaelic football and hurling; the others are camogie and handball. Camogie is a field game played by women while handball is like squash without the rackets. The state of health of the GAA and the level of support for the games is a stunning endorsement of the vision of its founders, and the games are enjoyed by millions of people – players and spectators – every year (Healy, 1998). The Gaelic games of football, hurling, camogie, and handball are far removed from the glittering ranks of global sport. In fact, large figure endorsement deals and international stardom do not entice Gaelic players. In a world focused on millionaire sports professionals, these Gaelic games provide a remarkable example of thriving amateur sports. Amateur in their character, Gaelic games exist through the bonds of identity they forge among participants and devotees. Founded out of national pride, sustained through the lean times with that same emotion, few things run so deeply through the core of Irish society than the connection with place and home which the games provide. In a sporting world where players change allegiances for the price of a shoe and satellite television holds fans to ransom, there remains in Gaelic games vital proof of a purer ideal - amateurism, and love of the game (Prior, 1997).
