What is Games for All?
The first line of the GAA Official Guide spells out how the GAA reaches into every corner of Ireland and many communities around the globe. In doing this, the GAA is fully committed to the principles of inclusion and diversity at all levels
Our aim: To offer an inclusive, diverse and welcoming environment for everyone
Ulster GAA has been progressing Games for All for many years and we now have over 40 units providing opportunities for participation for 1000+ additional people. We want to expand on those numbers by getting more clubs involved and the resources below have been produced to help those thinking about doing so to understand the necessary steps to establish Games for All in their club.
The Guide for clubs contains contact details for representatives from all nine counties who will be happy to provide guidance on any aspect of Games for All.
All Stars Volunteer Coach Education workshop (90mins)
