Gaelic Start Pack Launched

February 25th, 2010

gaelic-start-launchUlster GAA have just launched their new ‘Gaelic Start and FUNdamental’s Pack’, which is aimed to improve coaching programmes for children up to nine years old.  It can be used by club coaches, teachers and even parents.

Speaking at the launch of the ‘Gaelic Start and FUNdamental’s Pack’ Ulster GAA President Tom Daly said, “The new Gaelic Start & FUNdamental’s Pack is now ready for clubs, schools and parents.   The pack contains over 300 coaching cards for children from infants to 9 years old.  The aim of this resource is to help coaches, teachers and parents plan and implement an effective and efficient coaching programme for children of all abilities including those with special needs.”

The cards have been designed so they:

  • Can be used by ANYONE – children, teachers, parents and non coaching personnel
  • Support the developmental stages of all children regardless of ability
  • Offer a variety of progressive, challenging and fun activities – Warm ups, Games & Skills
  • Include activities that can be set up quickly & easily

Anyone wishing to get their hands on these popular packs should contact their County Games Manager or through Ulster GAA by contacting Bernie Fox on 028 3752 1900 or email bernie.mcglinchey.ulster@gaa.ie
