If all those GPO's aren't as great as they are on the tin we will gladly take some of them in Kerry and I'm sure other counties would feel the same if_in_doubt (Kildare) - Posts: 3685 - 09/05/2017 14:26:58 1985477 Link 2 |
clubs would hugely benefit from having that full time link between schools and the club if_in_doubt (Kildare) - Posts: 3685 - 09/05/2017 14:31:37 1985480 Link 0 |
Again So much misinformation being spouted as fact by people that have a very limited knowledge about how it all works. But you see.. it suits a certain narrative and as such they'll ignorantly run with it to suit their own purposes. At the end of the day, empty vessels make the most noise. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20589 - 09/05/2017 14:37:18 1985481 Link 0 |
Absolutely there is a benefit and it would be foolish to state otherwise , IF and I mean IF they are good at their job they can have a massive impact in numbers at juvenile level. most coaches at that level will have major back ground in strength and conditioning also , Speaking of my own club Ive seen programmes come in that are a massive help in injury prevention , that said some buy into it and some don't , This year our under 15 team folded through lack of numbers , its a constant battle , getting them in the schools is crucial and no team in Dublin has done it better than Castleknock they have used GPO very successfully in creating a YOU MUST PLAY culture in the area , its cool type thinking Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 09/05/2017 14:41:34 1985482 Link 0 |
Its a pain in the neck reading this rehashed thread again (!), but you sum it up perfectly - but as you say it doesn't fit the narrative. Now what you describe is no different than my own club. Ditto at county level across the board in Dublin. The reality is most of what the county board spends its money on is the development of the game, yeah our game as in not Dublins game but our game.

I never said it would be those exact coaches from Dublin, I said was if they aren't so amazing then I'm sure the rest of the country would like extra full time coaches supplied by the GAA
