Scór: The Preparation Continues!

In late June, the BBC came to CLG Chill Dreasa, Tír Eoghain, to interview Scór competitors from across Ulster, as well as recent Scór na Sinsear All Ireland champions as part of a special feature on the cultural aspect of our association.

In April 2024, the Ulster Scór Final took place, leading to the All-Ireland in May where each province was represented to the highest standard across all eight Scór disciplines.

Tá bród an domhain ar CLG Uladh gur éirigh le CLG Ghleann an Iolair, agus le Méabh Nic Néill, bonn Uile Éireann a thabhairt ‘na bhaile leo.

Ulster GAA is extremely proud of all the Ulster representatives, and extends warmest congratulations to Glenullin, Doire and Méabh McNeill of An Lámh Dhearg, Aontroim, the All-Ireland Scór champions for Ballad Group and Solo Singing respectively.

Paula Magee, newly appointed Cathaoirleach Choiste Scór Náisiúnta, spoke to Bernie Allen, correspondent for the BBC, about the importance of Scór for those who take part. Paula explained that these competitions are equally as important as our on-field sports, with competitors devoting much of their time and efforts to their crafts; practicing, improving and perfecting their talents, to strive for those county, provincial and All-Ireland titles.

Buíochas le CLG Chill Dreasa, a huge thank you to Kildress for opening their fantastic facilities to Ulster GAA, Coiste Scór Uladh and the BBC representatives to allow interviews and performances to be conducted. Táimid go mór faoi chomaoin agaibh.

Thank you to all our Scór stalwarts, volunteers and participants from across Ulster who travelled to add to this coverage, ensuring Scór is promoted and elevated throughout the association. Ní bheadh comórtais ann gan sibh!

Is léiriú iontach é Scór ar mhana an CLG go bhfuil áit dúinn uilig ann. The preparation continues, ready for another busy autumn and winter of Scór competitions across Ulster and further afield. Go n-éirí go geal leis na clubanna!
