The Kilmacud Crokes Strategic Plan was approved at a special General Meeting held on the 17th of April 2013 and subsequently a new club executive structure was put in place which was aligned with the strategic plan. This secretarial report primarily summarises the activities from each of the officers of the new Executive over the past 12 months. The club AGM is an ideal forum for members to communicate their views and express their opinions on the club and I hope that this meeting provides a platform for constructive discussion and debate. I would like to thank all of our members, who, in a voluntary capacity over the past year, have given of your time, energy and expertise to promote Gaelic games and Kilmacud Crokes. Our club plays a very important role in the community. In 2015, we had 2502 registered players and a total of 189 teams (equating to approximately 125 full panel teams). Over the past 5 years, there has been significant growth in the numbers playing Camogie, Ladies Football and Hurling. In 2015, our teams played in excess of 1400 games with almost 50% of these as home fixtures. 1. Total Male players = 1690 2. Total Female players = 812 3. Ladies Vs Mens: 62% of teams are Male. 38% Female; 68% players are Male, 32% are Female 4. 62 teams from U13 upwards across all codes Male Female Total Adult Playing 355 125 480 Adult Non-Playing 1302 879 2181 Youth12 – 18 550 356 906 Children <11 785 331 1116 TOTAL 2992 1691 4683 On the playing front 2015 was again a successful year as outlined in the “Roll of Honour” later in this report. County Championships were won across a number of codes and across a range of age groups and levels. On behalf of all club members and supporters, I would like to congratulate and acknowledge the achievements of all our inter-county players across all sections and grades. It is a huge honour and source of enjoyment to see our players representing the club at inter-county level and I would particularly like, on behalf of all club members and supporters, to acknowledge our All Ireland medal winners in 2015 and to acknowledge the selection of Rory O’Carroll and Cian O Sullivan as All Stars. Football Section Report: Football in Kilmacud Crokes was strong in 2015. Our AFL3 Team gained Senior Status by winning Division 2 and introducing more young men to Senior Football for 2016 and our AFL5 Team gained promotion to Division 4 thus giving us an Intermediate as well as 2 Senior Football Teams for 2016. Our Senior 1 Team were runners up in AFL1 and whilst disappointing us in Senior Championship with a Quarter final exit to the eventual All Ireland Champions, Ballyboden St Endas. Ten of the squad won the FBD All Ireland 7’s back in September and with our U21 footballers winning the U21 Championship playing an exciting brand of football, the future for Kilmacud Crokes Football looks bright. All our Teams from Minor down to U13 made progress during 2015 with our Under 15’s taking league honours and we expect healthy competition for League and Championship Honours in 2016 from these groups of players. - 4 - May 2016 Cill Mochuda na Crócaigh Kilmacud Crokes AGM 2015 Congratulations to our 3 Senior Footballers on Winning All Ireland Championship Medals with Dublin last September and to our 4 representatives on both the Dublin U21 and Minor Football Teams during 2015. In October and November last we had 3 full houses on consecutive Sunday Nights where we had a root and branch look at ourselves and set out to develop a Strategic Plan for Kilmacud Crokes Football for the coming years. This Strategic Plan and the learning’s from these 3 evenings will be concluded and issued shortly. Thank you to the 115 something people who took the time to attend these sessions and for their valuable input. We extend special thanks and appreciation to Paraic McDonald, our Club coach for all his work and effort throughout the year. All his endeavours and assistance is greatly appreciated by our Players, Parents, Management Teams and Football Committee. We would particularly like to commend him on his work on our behalf in the partnering with our local schools. We cannot ignore the great work, time and effort put in by all our Management Teams and Committee Members without whom Kilmacud Crokes Football would not work. Our Club Sponsors, Bank of Ireland and our 7’s Sponsors FBD Insurance plc have been absolutely brilliant to us in 2015 and we thank them for being with us on our journey during the year. Hurling Section Report: 2015 was another good year for Hurling in Kilmacud Crokes. While the heights of the 2014 Senior county championship were not attained, we had lots of success on the playing pitches with our Junior A team securing promotion to AHL4 in the league and league winners in our U16, U15 and U13A and C teams. Undoubtedly the dual highlights of the year were the county championship victories at U21 and U15 levels. Overall we have seen an almost 50% growth in the numbers playing hurling over the last 5 to 6 years and with over 600 children playing hurling from U11 down, the future is both bright and challenging. In 2015, a new initiative took place with the establishment of the “Hurling School of Excellence” in collaboration with UCD. Targeted at U13 – U16 players, 63 players attended the camp over two weeks. The main aim of this venture was to look at the future, by developing and evolving the mindset of our players aged 12 to 16 years to understand the importance of having a "Full Circle" approach to Sport. The annual club coaching conference was held again in January 2016 and this is now an annual event where we develop and enhance the expertise of our coaches and volunteers. Congratulations to the 14 players who represented Dublin at inter-county level across minor, U21 and senior levels in 2015. A big thank you to all who helped out with all teams throughout 2015/2016 and particular thanks to all those who assisted in making the One Direct All Ireland Sevens and Punchestown events so successful. Ladies Gaelic Football Section: 2015 was an exciting year for Ladies Football. The numbers playing continues to increase every year with 629 playing members currently registered. School-going players come from more than 10 local primary and post primary schools, a tribute to Crokes coaching input into most of these schools. In total, Ladies Football fielded 17 “Go games” teams (age 8-12), 9 Juvenile (u13 –Minor) competitive teams, 2 Adult (Divisions 1 and 5) and 1 Gaelic for Mothers/Others teams. Under 5’s were introduced into Nursery this year bringing the total nursery membership to 158! Our flagship Senior team performed excellently in their first year after promotion from Intermediate, being runners up in Div 1 League, and only losing in the semi-final of Championship to Foxrock/Cabinteely, who themselves went on to become Dublin and Leinster Champions. At Juvenile level our Minors won both Division 1 League and Championship, making Kilmacud Crokes the Minor Champions for the fourth year in a row and the current minor team being unbeaten in Championship since being under 10. U 14’s won Division 1 Dublin Féile and U 15’s won Division 1 Championship. - 5 - May 2016 Cill Mochuda na Crócaigh Kilmacud Crokes AGM 2015 We had representatives on every Dublin County team U14, U16, Minor, U21 and Senior, a total of 14 Crokes players donning the County jersey. As usual, we hosted the U14’s All Ireland 7’s, generously sponsored by FBD. 32 teams from all over the country played a total of 78 games on a beautiful September Saturday. Unfortunately, we were knocked out in the semi but everyone had a great day. Overall 2015 saw Ladies Football in a healthy state, the continually increasing number of both players enjoying football and others who contribute in various ways to the club and having fun being our greatest success. Camogie Section: 2015 was another year of positive progression for the Camogie Ladies and it has carried forward to the early parts of 2016 when we reached our first ever Division 1 Féile final. Our Senior Ladies secured promotion in 2015 and that was a good barometer of the progress we are making over the last number of years.

  • Dispute Resolution in Irish Sport: the Courts As Reluctant Interlopers
    Donnellan, L 2016 Dispute Resolution in Irish Sport: The Courts as Reluctant Interlopers. Entertainment and Sports Law Journal, 14: 1, pp. 1–15, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.16997/eslj.195 ARTICLE Dispute Resolution in Irish Sport: The Courts as Reluctant Interlopers Laura Donnellan Lecturer in Law, School of Law, University of Limerick, Ireland [email protected] In the past decade there have been a number of judicial review cases involving sports governing bodies in Ireland. While the courts have been willing to hear such cases, it has been repeatedly emphasised that judicial intervention in the decisions of sporting organisations should not occur lightly and recourse to the courts should only happen in the most exceptional of circumstances. The Irish courts have referred to the need for sports bodies to submit their dispute to arbitration or mediation. In Ireland there are two domestic bodies offering alternative dispute resolution in the sporting context: Just Sport Ireland (JSI) and the Disputes Resolution Authority (DRA) of the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA). The availability of alternative forms of dispute resolution in Ireland provides a welcome alternative to the expensive, often divisive, option of judicial review proceedings. Given the benefits of resolution of disputes through the DRA or JSI and in light of the Irish courts’ general reluctance to become involved in sporting disputes, it is likely that these processes will become increasingly availed of, most pertinently as Sport Ireland (formerly Irish Sports Council (ISC)) has made it a condition for recognition for new governing bodies and has been actively encouraging existing sports governing bodies to insert a referral clause in their rules.

Check this out. In 2010, Boden participated in 1,500 competitive games across the four codes. Given that this also involved 1,500 teams from Criostóir Ó Cuana, Úachtarán Cumann Lúthchleas Gael performs the official opening of the other clubs with an average of 20 players per squad this Sancta Maria Complex watched by Terry O’Neill, Club Chair; Cllr. Eamonn Maloney, Mayor of South Dublin; Joan O’Flynn, Úachtarán, Cumann Camógaíochta; Colin Moran and Fr. Jimmy amounts to a total of 60,000 players taking part in gaelic games Murray, O. Carm., PP, St. Colmcille’s Knocklyon playing activity involving the club. And of course don’t forget the 1,500 referees. It is a phenomenal number. Add in all the training sessions and discussions associated with each team and the impact of this voluntary activity is truly enormous. As the country faces into difficult economic times, it is heartening to see such endeavour complemented with characteristics like passion, spirit and hope. These qualities are not in short supply in Ireland and if we can harness them properly we will overcome our problems. The club itself was overcome with joy in 2010 with the marvellous four-in-a-row senior hurling titles – an achievement that places the club among the ranks of great clubs.

Dublin GAA have, in conjunction with the national GAA organisation, liaised with DCU about assessing the movement skills of children in Ireland. The GAA, with SFI and DCU, have implemented the project. Just 11% of Irish teens have mastered fundamental movements that they should have mastered by the age of 6. While investigating the factors that motivate children to partake in physical activity, the existing research emphasises the importance of developing the fundamental movement skills in children. Tackling these problems requires a new perspective. In this vision, the individual has the motivation, confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding to value and take responsibility for maintaining purposeful physical pursuits/activities throughout the lifecycle. This singular, unique and ambitious project is assessing 3000+ students around the country with a view to better understand the relationship between physical literacy, health related fitness, wellbeing and physical activity. The "Moving Well - Being Well" project is the largest of its kind globally. Higher Education Institution: DCU Engaged Research Partners (civic, civil society organisations, GAA, Dublin GAA Social enterprises, public or professional service or product users, policy makers, members of the public). Engagement (research method or activity) (100 words max) This project sought to undertake research with and by a grassroots voluntary organisation, and to implement the outputs associated with the research.

  • 2021 GAA MEDIA GUIDE Treoirleabhar Na Meán 2021
    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.
