Dublin GAA Commercial and Marketing Manager Tomás Quinn said: “Dublin GAA are delighted to welcome Go-Ahead Ireland as our new adult club leagues and championships partner. 


We believe they are an excellent fit for our club competitions and we are proud to confirm it also includes the club ladies football and camogie adult leagues and championship competitions.

As well as providing high quality public bus services, the team at Go-Ahead Ireland have been exploring how to engage even more directly in the communities they serve. Go-Ahead Ireland is firmly committed to sustainability and further growth in Ireland, and the partnership with Dublin GAA demonstrates this.


Speaking on this exciting step for Go-Ahead Ireland, Managing Director Andy Edwards said: “As a leading provider of public transport throughout Dublin, Go-Ahead Ireland is rooted in the community and driven by community service values, making this a perfect partnership both for us and Dublin GAA. We’re delighted to be ‘on board’ for the next three years. 


The sponsorship is an extension of our long-term commitment to the communities we serve. It’s also very much in line with the community values of the GAA where we share a mutually held commitment that everything we do should help to enhance life and living in the communities we serve.”


Part of an international group and global transport provider that places great importance on local people running its local operations, it is only fitting that Dublin GAA becomes a focus for Go-Ahead.
