Gaelic4Teens:
The Gaelic4Teens initiative ran by the LGFA aims to tackle the issue of player retention in the 13-17 years age bracket and has had hugely successful results assisting clubs through coach education. The programme spans eight weeks and culminates with that jam-packed day of activities in Abbotstown, as participating clubs visit the impressive venue for a series of 7-a-side games, while also picking up valuable tips and coaching expertise from our Gaelic4Teens Ambassadors who are a host of current and former LGFA stars with expertise in the areas involved.
After completing the programme, participating clubs are armed with the knowledge and skills necessary to retain players in their late teens, and their progress will be consistently monitored throughout the following year. For full details and application forms on the 2020 Gaelic4Teens Programme please go to website www.ladiesgaelic.ie The closing date for applications is Friday, November 22nd 2019 and for further information, contact National Development Officer William Harmon: william.harmon@lgfa.ie
