Plan Well first thing’s first – Make a Plan ‐ this can be very basic but it will help you step by step throughout the year.

  • The Development of Grassroots Football in Regional Ireland: the Case of the Donegal League, 1971–1996

    The Development of Grassroots Football in Regional Ireland: the Case of the Donegal League, 1971–1996

    33 Conor Curran ‘It has almost been an underground movement’. The Development of Grassroots Football in Regional Ireland: the Case of the Donegal League, 1971–1996 Abstract This article assesses the development of association football at grassroots’ level in County Donegal, a peripheral county lying in the north-west of the Republic of Ire- land. Despite the foundation of the County Donegal Football Association in 1894, soccer organisers there were unable to develop a permanent competitive structure for the game until the late 20th century and the more ambitious teams were generally forced to affiliate with leagues in nearby Derry city. In discussing the reasons for this lack of a regular structure, this paper will also focus on the success of the Donegal League, founded in 1971, in providing a season long calendar of games. It also looks at soccer administrators’ rivalry with those of Gaelic football there, and the impact of the nationalist Gaelic Athletic Association’s ‘ban’ on its members taking part in what the organisation termed ‘foreign games’. In particular, the extent to which the removal of the ‘ban’ in 1971 helped to ease co-operation between organisers of Gaelic and Association football will be explored. Keywords: Association football; Gaelic football; Donegal; Ireland; Donegal League; Gaelic Athletic Association Introduction The nationalist Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA), which is today the leading sporting organisation in Ireland despite its players having to adhere to its amateur ethos, has its origins in the efforts of schoolteacher and journalist Michael Cusack, who was eager to reform Irish athletics which was dominated by elitism and poorly governed in the early 1880s.

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.

  • GAA Streaming Policy & Local License Agreement

    GAA Streaming Policy & Local License Agreement

    GAA Streaming Policy & Local License Agreement Background Streaming of audio and audio-visual content is now a worldwide phenomenon and the practice of online live sports consumption has seen particularly high growth levels in recent times. In line with this trend, there has also been a significant increase in the number of third-party companies, GAA Provincial councils, County boards and local clubs looking to stream live matches digitally (both in audio and audio-visual formats). This development in a GAA context not only offers a service to those who cannot attend a match in person (especially those who live or are travelling overseas) but also creates a potential revenue source for GAA units. To facilitate these requests without infringing upon the rights held by the GAA’s existing national broadcast partners, this document and licensing agreement intends to set out the policy and process within which stakeholders must follow to gain approval before any match streaming can occur. In each match case, the ‘Requesting GAA Unit’ who wishes to conduct the live stream should gain permission from the relevant ‘Approving GAA Unit’. This approval process is managed as follows: Requesting GAA Unit Approving GAA Unit GAA Clubs County Board County Board Provincial Council Provincial Council Commercial Dept., Croke Park Gaining Approval Step 1: Find out if the competition within which the match occurs falls under any existing rights sold by the GAA to its broadcast partners at national level (a list of which is included in ‘Appendix 1 National Broadcast Agreement Competitions’). If the match does fall within one of these competitions already linked to a national broadcast agreement, GAA units are not permitted to stream the match.

Seo an dara cluiche do na contaetha (Dún na nGall agus Ard Mhacha) i gcomórtas na bliana seo i gcorn Nioclas Mhic Riocaird agus beidh sé giota beag aisteach is bheith ag imirt gan lucht tacaíocht. Is am an-deacair é seo d’imreoirí, lucht bainistiochta, chomh maith le lucht tacaíochta agus tá áthas ar CLG Dhún na nGall a bheith in ann na cluichí a shruthlú agus clár fiorúil a chuir ar fáil. Ta súil agam go mbainfidh achán duine sult agus taithneamh as an ocáid agus go mbeidh cluiche maith iomána le feiceál anseo i bpáirc Uí Dhomhnaill inniú. You are all welcome to today’s Round 2A Nickey Rackard Championship fixture here in O’Donnell Park. Unfortunately, “all” does not include spectators in these difficult times with all but elite games cancelled and matches that proceed held “behind closed doors”. Streaming of our games is a new phase to help the GAA battle restrictions on capacity and bring matches to all Gaels. This is the second County fixture Donegal GAA TV have streamed in successive weeks. Last week’s stream went well but this is an industry new to the GAA, and technology-sensitive, with inevitable hiccups - be patient with any problems that do arise as you can be sure our Stream Team are working to resolve them.
