The Gaelic4Mothers&Others initiative is an innovative way to introduce mothers and other women to playing Ladies Gaelic Football. Mothers often drop their kids to training and call back to collect them, but the Ladies Gaelic Football Association wants to change that.
The Gaelic4Mothers&Others initiative sees women playing Ladies Gaelic Football in a fun, non-competitive and social environment. Gaelic4Mothers&Others provides an opportunity for women to get their recommended weekly exercise in a fun way while meeting other mothers in the area.
One fun practice session will be organised every week for approx 1 hour to introduce women to the basic skills of Ladies Gaelic Football through fun games and exercises. We are going to host a trial run for the next 6 weeks to see what interest we have in the initiative. Training will be held on Monday evenings in the pitch at 7pm. All participants must be members of the club, membership can be paid on our website. If interested, register with Niamh on 087-9516572 or Frankie 086-3977549, so that we have an idea for numbers.
