GAA World Games

(Oldest Posts First)

Anyone following these? Seems like Australia and the Middle East are the powerhouses as usual, with strong showings from the likes of France and Galicia in the native team competitions.

The games were on next to where i work. Had a gander on my lunch the other day.
Its 8 a side and played on Leinster Rugbys raining pitch so fits well within Rugby dimensions.
Good idea i suppose but hidden away in UCD probably not the best way to promote it.

True, though the finals will be played at Croker this weekend. Some incentive to play your heart out ;)
