Gaelic Games for All
The session will begin with a brief introduction into the history of Gaelic Games; Gaelic Handball, Hurling and its sister game of Camogie (Ladies Hurling) and Gaelic Football or Ladies Football for the females. The Irish are passionate about all of their sporting traditions; they even consider Gaelic Handball to be the hidden gem of the games within Ireland.
Families throughout the entire island of Ireland portray Irish sporting culture via Gaelic Games. It is quite common to see members of the same family, such as father and son or mother and daughter, on the field of play together. There have even been cases in which three generations of a family played on the same team!
We at Experience Gaelic Games have a soft spot for families due to the family history tied with the Gaelic Games. Families have thrilled us with their overwhelming positive responses and joyous spirited reactions to our native games. Families of all sizes and ages have bonded over this timeless tradition together. Our sessions typically last three hours but we have an abiding trust that the memories made through this brilliant experience will last forever.
